Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows

Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows

Comedy
Crime

Guy Ritchie's much anticipated sequel to Sherlock Holmes (2009), with Robert Downey Jr. and Jude Law reprising their roles. The seemingly unconnected death of an Indian cotton tycoon, a Chinese opium trader and an American steel entrepreneur has gained global attention, along with bombings in Strasbourg and Vienna. Sherlock Holmes is the only man who identifies the linking cracks shaking the world, with the depraved Professor Moriarty (Fringe's Jared Harris) being at the epicentre. The film also brings in Noomi Rapace (from the excellent Millennium trilogy) in her first English speaking role as well as Stephan Fry, playing Sherlock's older, peculiar brother Mycroft.
