What kind of expression does one give when he or she meets a person who is an exact reflection of oneself. Someone who doesn't know you before but does the same thing what you do in his own ideology. His thinking and yours would be exactly same but the outcome will be the contradicted. What happens when a student messes up with his own teacher who thought him many things, who will win?. We all know the result is inevitable that the professor will surely bypass the student. But what if the student outperforms teacher. Do you come to the conclusion that neither the teacher is not brilliant enough or the student is intellectual enough. Just think! What conclusion does one come to, towards the end? Totally confusing isn't it?
Frankly,There are generally two kinds of people live in this world. One who lives with the angels and the other with the demon. Both these categories of people are quite brilliant in their way. One uses their senses to ensure peace and prosperity and the other uses it simply to cause chaos and destruction to the whole world so that they could obviously start a war. They always want two people fighting towards each other so that they could have peace in their life. An other surprising thing about the people who live with the angels is that they don't always strive for peace. Sometimes being in peace always doesn't ensure harmony, blood ought to be shed so that violence can be avoided in the sustaining future. These kinds of people deal directly with demons and totally evade them. So these kinds of people just because they live with the angels don't even think for a second they are one of them. Destroying others wont be their spree but surely shutting up the shattering demons is their priority job. Demons should very careful what they fish for because all the good people won't always be a trout fish. The fisherman grows weary of trying to catch an elusive fish, so he muddies the water and confuses the wish. It doesn't realize until its too late that it has swum in to the trap. Good people suddenly turn in the antonym way and surely it will surprise the fisherman too and sometimes it may swallow him too.
Today we are going to see about the movie 'SHERLOCK HOLMES- A GAME OF SHADOWS'. So what does the Game of Shadows certainly mean?. It is similar to the game of chess like how in chess external fighting is of no use its all about our internal expressions. How we use our brains to bring down the witty criminal to ground. After all being brainy is loved more than being admirable in this enigmatic world now-a-days. As our world get updated itself every sooner or later.
This movie is a prequel to SHERLOCK HOLMES(2009) ( TO READ ITS REVIEW CLICK IT ) After the confirmed death of Lord Blackwood an animal who is volatile without any one's notice here comes another person who is the exact reflection of Sherlock Holmes( Robert Downey, Jr.) but his experience is towards hundred times greater than the consulting detective. Sherlock is actually an elusive fish for this Criminal master mind Professor James Moriarty( played by Jared Harris). Like Sherlock Holmes he is also a master in science of deduction and also a Cambridge boxing champion. He has a vast knowledge something more than Sherlock Holmes.
The plot is this(the crew remains the same as that of prequel), Irene Adler delivers a package to Herr Dr Hoffmanstahl payment for a letter he was to deliver. He opens the package triggering a hidden bomb which is about to explode but intervened and stopped by Sherlock Holmes. Later Irene and Hoffmanstahl escape.Sherlock takes the letter and finds Hoffmanstahl assassinated moments later. Irene meets James Moriarty to explain the situation but Moriarty poisons her and kills her just because she loves Sherlock Holmes. Holmes then meets James Moriarty. Moriarty threatens to kill Watson and his just married wife if he continues to interfere in his business. But Holmes promised that he would stop him from committing several crimes. Mean time in Watson's bachelor party he meets fortune teller Simza(Noomi Rapase), the official recipient of the letter he took from Irene sent by her brother Rene.After that the wedding happens and after the turn of surprising events Holmes reveals the fact to Simza that she is about to be killed because Rene is working for Moriarty and he suspects that Rene might have told about his plans to his sister. Simza then discloses the fact that some anarchists group are ready to plant bombs for Moriarty. Sherlock gets caught to Moriarty and whether Sherlock escaped and stopped Moriarty like the vow made by him or was he the elusive fish forms the rest of the plot.
One must arguably understand the fact that this movie was very entertaining than its prequel. The twist at the end is something each and every Sherlock Holmes fan should really keep an eye on. But while watching this movie sometimes you have to skip some logic and watch it because entertainment sometimes doesn't prefer logic. Screen play was drastically at its best. One must accept that this movie is very grandeur than the first part but certainly not bigger to its prequel.
Performance wise Robert Downey, Jr. was simply the best. The treatment given to this character by him in this movie was much matured and improved than the previous ones. Jude Law was simple and catchy. Rachel came in a blink role but was notable. The tenure were Mycroft (Stephen Fry) elder brother of Sherlock Holmes comes is really funny and appreciative. The person who caught everyone's attention was James Moriarty(Jared Harris) he resembled very close to the novels and he acted so wisely and his timing was intelligent. His eyes did the talking more than his words. He was better than Lord BlackWood.
Cinematography and editing was again at its modest best(same crew retained). Guy Ritchie's direction was again inspirational. This guy is always known for his making skills and he proved it yet again. The story is written by Michele Mulroney and kieran Mulroney and they have adapted most of their lines from Sir Author Conan Doyle's "THE FINAL PROBLEM" ( TO READ THE BOOK CLICK IT ) and they have done a pretty well job too.
This movie have attracted the critics not to a great extend but largely to a considerable amount.
MY RATING - 3.5/5.
P.S- This movie may not be equal to its prequel's reputation but I assure you it will be more entertaining and enjoyable than the first part. This movie is known for its twist and surely in this case it will be quite surprising. Watch it keenly and enjoy this commercial pot boiler with your family.
