Academy Award nominee Ian McKellen
takes on the iconic role of Detective
Sherlock Holmes.
In 1947, the world famous sleuth has retires to
a remote Sussex farmhouse, living in relative
anonymity with only his housekeeper
Mrs Munro and her young son Roger for
company. Grappling with the diminishing
powers of his mind and frustrated with
the mis-representation of him in Watson’s
best-selling novels, he diverts his attention
to an unsolved case. As the mystery deepens,
Sherlock tries desperately to recall the events
of 30 years ago that ultimately led to his
retirement - MR HOLMES is an exciting new
twist on the world’s most famous detective. AI Film Production Limited/British Broadcasting Corporation (2015)

I like Ian McKellen, i like Sherlock Holmes, but this is one boring movie... I couldn't sit more than 30 mins in the movie.. This is a story of a demented elderly, trying to remember his past.. The acting of Ian McKellen is good as always though...

Completely different take on Holmes compared to recent franchises. Beautifully filmed, wonderfully acted by the cast and an interesting if somewhat sad story. Sir Ian McKellen is brilliant as an older version of Sherlock as he sorts out his legacy.

I am a fan of Sherlock Holmes but this movie didn't seem to do anything for the character in old age or entertain us with the sheer genius of Sherlock Holmes. Not worth wasting your time in this.
