I actually could have gone for more of him in the film)<br /><br />The film itself I felt was a very compelling procedural with the final sequence being a highlight. <br /><br />Luke:<br /><br />Holmes:<br /><br />Law - 3.5(Thought he had some great chemistry with Downey playing the right sorta straight man to Downey's off kilter version of Holmes)<br /><br />Strong - 3.5(Brings the right menace like he always does in parts like these. Further than that I felt he just brought the right tinge of knowing when playing the creepy bits to suggest the final revelation of his character)<br /><br />McAdams - 2(Felt very out of place and lacked any real chemistry with Downey)<br /><br />Avatar: Technically a re-watch is needed to be specific but everyone was either dull or pretty forgettable.

Snatch and Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels are really enjoyable films, and I thought RockNRolla and the Sherlock films were at least watchable, though I have to admit Revolver and Swept Away were absolutely nonsensical.<br /><br />I think Richie is kinda like Shyamalan, he just sorta lost his touch, and cannot match the successes of his first few films.<br /><br />Agree about Bay and Goldsman, and I will add Paul W.S.
