Robert Downey Jr. brings the legendary detective to life as he has never been portrayed before. Jude Law stars as Holmes' trusted colleague, Watson, a doctor and war veteran who is a formidable ally for Sherlock Holmes. Rachel McAdams stars as Irene Adler, the only woman ever to have bested Holmes and who has maintained a tempestuous relationship with the detective. Mark Strong stars as their mysterious new adversary, Blackwood. Kelly Reilly will play Watson's love interest, Mary.
A great movie, really. A lot of action and many laughs as well. I`ve seen some Sherlock Holmes-movies and this one is really one of the best.

I put this one on my favourite movies a few weeks ago! 
Definitely a fantastic movie I thought! If you are an ardent traditionalist when it comes to Holmes (as I thought I was!)...just go in with an open mind, and be pleasantly suprised and entertained!
