Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows

Movie: Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows
Genre: drama
Synopsis: This is the sequel to Sherlock Holmes with Robert Downey Jr. back as Sherlock and Jude Law as Watson.  This brings us Jared Harris as Professor James Moriarty, the arch enemy of Sherlock Holmes in the original books.  Throughout the movie, it seems that Moriarty is one or two steps ahead of Holmes as Holmes pursues Moriarty through Europe..  The climax is a battle between the two high in the Swiss Alps.

My two cents: A decent sequel.  I would like to have seen more or Rachel McAdams (Irene Adler), but you can’t have everything.  I thought the middle of the movie dragged a little, but the final 30 or 40 minutes were well worth waiting for.
