Ritchie 2009 crack in Arthur Conan DoyleThe detective is always his most successful public success – and the only film that has ever managed to cough a theatrical sequel. Now both Sherlock Holmes And Sherlock Holmes: a play of shadows Come to Netflix on September 1. If you forgot how funny Downey Jr. and Jude Law, it’s your chance to react to you.

Ritchie’s Holmes is not your Holmes smoked grandfather. Downey Jr. plays it like an erratic and half feral genius – equal brain and bruising parts – freshly out of its Iron Back and at the top of its chaotic charm.
