I can't wait to see this movie. It sounds fantastic. I hope it does have all the elements in it, humor, action, adventure, suspense and mystery. I think Robert Downey Jr. is an excellent actor and I cannot imagine him doing a terrible film. I will definitely take my family to go see it, because we all admire his work so much. I also don't believe the hype about a sex scene going around on the internet. I think since Holmes was knocked unconscious, Ms Adler stripped him then handcuffed him to the bed. She made him look idiotic and she bested Holmes. That to me is humorous.I love it! Adler was the only one who ever bested Holmes. Fantastic, she knocks him out and he wakes up that way what an ego killer. As a woman I am so proud of that girl! Anyway I can't wait, I am in love with the idea of this.
