Can the all-new, rehabilitated Robert Downey Jr do no wrong? He’s at the top of the Hollywood A-list thanks to Iron Man... can he also get away with recreating a legendary British hero in an all-new, action-packed way? Arthur Conan Doyle's Sherlock Holmes gets a high-octane makeover with Downey Jr as the renowned detective, and stalwart partner Watson (Jude Law) at his side. Holmes has made his reputation solving the most complex mysteries. But a storm is gathering over Victorian London, a threat unlike anything that Holmes has ever confronted. After a string of brutal, ritualistic murders, Holmes and Watson arrive just in time to save the latest victim and uncover the killer: the unrepentant Lord Blackwood. But as he approaches the gallows, Blackwood warns Holmes that death has no power over him - a threat that seems genuine when Blackwood’s apparent resurrection panics London and confounds Scotland Yard. Can Holmes save the day?
