Sherlock Holmes Promised As A Cool Mix of Action and Humor
>> Apr 1, 2009
According to George 'El Guapo' Roush from LatinoReview who attended Warner brothers presentation which shown some footage of their upcoming films, Actor Robert Downey Jr. has also introduced the very first footage of "Sherlock Holmes" in the occasion.
In the preview, the only sort of plot was the bad guy saying in a voiceover to Holmes that, "Tomorrow, at midday, the world as you know it, will end." The next scene showed Downey as Holmes saying, "Well, there isn't anytime to waste then, is there?"
A lot of action footage was shown, from Holmes jumping out a third story or so window into the river below (Thames) and shots of Holmes in a bare knuckle fist fight reminiscent of Tom Cruise's fights in "Far and Away." Some of the punches were in slow motion kind of like 300. But he didn't see Jude Law as Watson until halfway in the footage, when Sherlock wanted to find someone that would compliment his skills. "Holmes, does your depravity know no bounds?" "No." is also exchanged in the footage shown, along with Holmes saying, "Watson, what have you done?"
Guapo also see shots of Rachel McAdams, Robert Downey Jr.'s love interest in the film, who knocks him down in one scene , and he wakes up later handcuffed naked to a bed. The last scene shows a maid walking into the room and screaming at the site of a naked Holmes handcuffed to the bed with only a pillow to cover him up. Holmes then says, "Madam, I need you to remain calm and act like a professional. Take this pillow as the key to my release." It was a pretty funny scene.
There were also shots of Holmes picking a lock until Watson just kicks the door in, a scene where he has a hammer but is up against an enormous man wielding a giant sledgehammer. Holmes throws the hammer at the guy's chest and it bounces off with no effect.
El Guapo also judging from the two minutes shown, that the movie looks to be a cool mix of action and humor. But, sometimes the dialogue was hard to understand because every actor seemed to have a different English accent.
