The film Sherlock Holmes

The students of 1st, 2nd and 4th of E.S.O. went to Espacio Coruña Ondeon on 24th February to see the film Sherlock Holmes. It was great fun and very enjoyable.
The film is by the director Guy Ritchie, and it´s a version of the famous character by Arthur Conan Doyle.
The leading actor is the American film star Downey Jr.; who plays the role of Sherlock Holmes very well. He is an untidy person, ingenious, clever and ironic. He is highly intelligentand he is extremely rational when it comes to solve different crimes.
He appears with his faithful assistant Dr. Watson (Jude Law), who helps him many times. They are good friends and they find a logical explanation for all the cases that they investigate.

In this film, the evil priest Lord Blackwood, played by Mark Strong, wants to control the world, and he makes people believe that he has got magic powers and that he is the owner of the world.
Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson check that all this is false and that it is just the result of new chemical inventions.


In the film, Sherlock Holmes meets Irene Adler, a swindler whom he falls in love with. She is played by Rachel McAdams.
At the beginning, she deceives him, but finally, she helps Sherlock to defeat Lord Blackwood.
The Inspector Lestrade, Mary Morstan and Mrs. Hudson appear too.
In this movie, there are some enjoyable scenes, that makes Sherlock Holmes appear like this:
The film Sherlock Holmes is very good and interesting and I recommend it to everybody.
