The director clerly tried to do what Guy Ritchie did with Sherlock Holmes. However, it may have worked once, but it won't work again. As much as I enjoyed it, I still think that Guy Ritchie only actually managed to make it work with Sherlock Holmes. Mr. McGuigan should have tried a different take on this story, like Brett Ratner did with Hercules, which would have spread more positive reviews from critics, rather than copying a director who has more experience in film making than him. Sorry Mr. McGuigan.😑

I came to this film with no baggage, having not seen any trailers or read any reviews. In fact, I did not even know of its existence before browsing the list on Google Play. I found this an unexpected joy. Not to be taken too seriously, best if you just go along for the ride. The two leads had great chemistry and clearly had fun. Yes, we know the jist of the story so most of the plot is a variation on a well-worn theme, but it was darkly camp enough to hold my interest throughout.

The only true letdown that I experienced were the numerous plot-holes, primarily towards the end of the film. The production quality was good as a whole nonetheless. This interpretation of the story is one worth watching.
