Sherlock Holmes: Game of Shadows

On Christmas I did what any stereotypical Jew would do. I went to the movies and ate Chinese food. This year  on Christmas I saw Sherlock Holmes: Game of Shadows starring Robert Downey Jr. and Jude Law. In this sequel to the 2009 release Holmes and Dr. Watson take on their enemy Professor James Moriarty. The difference between the sequel and the first movie? In Game of Shadows Holmes' calculative and accurate thinking process is shown very clearly so the audience knows that it is Holmes thinking ,instead of an Inception like bit, representing what he is thinking then clearly showing Holmes returning to reality to play what happened in his head into action.  Although the movie is over two hours long it moves very fast, never drags, and is never boring. Although it'll probably be on DVD and Blu-Ray soon, I highly suggest seeing this movie.
