I'm going to watch it this weekend, because my local cinema is incredibly behind the times and isn't getting it in until Sunday.

I think it looks good, and I really want to see it. I really like Watson in the adverts. I often thought Holmes could be a bit up himself in the books and could use a thwap upside the head from Watson

I watched the movie, it was fun times, although apparently some people who watched it who were actual fans of the series (unlike me) didn't like it so much.

Apparently they were disappointed at the lack of holmes sniffing cocaine.

Probably because the censors would have murdered them for it. You're not supposed to show good characters doing drugs. You're not even supposed to show them smoking any more.

Supposedly it's a bad influence. Which always makes me think "yeah, and the Shawshank Redepmtion really makes me want to embezzle a fortune"...

Honestly, by the time a kid's 10 he should be smart enough to realize that just because the hero is smoking doesn't mean it's automatically cool and he should go out and get a pack of smokes so he can be cool too.

Exactly. Movies don't do that. That's what classmates are for.
