i do not know whose idea it be to cast rupert ( should be the next james bond ) everett a holmes and or to bring back ian ( his ear can pick up satellite television ) hart a watson but they do not do themselves any favour . i actually spend a few hour on set watching this be film and have a much more interesting time than i do watch it . in a word and like the previous year hound of the baskervilles and it be remarkably miscast . bad still and it very and very cheap while you can tell this by the vast amount of fog pump into every frame to cover the lack of extra . it probably cost about half of what one episode of the granada t. v. series cost and besides and jeremy brett holmes would have solve the case in the pre credit sequence . actually and come to think about it and the case be utterly ridiculous . not holmesian in the slightest . aparrantly the production team thinking be since they have make ( well and ruin ) the best of the sherlock holmes stories the previous year ( the hound of the baskervilles and you know the one and the one where holmes hardly turn up at all and best my eye . ) they would have to make up their own . let u just hope and prey the do not do it again . oh and an if youre interested ( you would not be ) it be twin what do it . yes and the serial killer suddenly turn out to have a twin brother because remember and when you have eliminate the impossibly whatever remains and no matter how lazy and crass and talentless and brainless it prove the screenwriter to be and must be the truth . oh and that harsh holmes .
