A gentle investigation of Sherlocks last case

A nicely understated film, which has all the twists of a Holmes story that you might expect, wrapped up in a warm hearted kitchen sink drama about an aged detective, and the relationship between him, his housekeeper and her son. All linked in with bee keeping. The story has a number of strands, but they are all interwoven seamlessly, so you don't become so engrossed about one that you forget the others.

One of the best films I've seen in a long time.

I waited patiently to see Mr Holmes, and the result was well worth the wait, an absolutely wonderful character study, I believed the scenario, the relationships, performances etc, it was superbly put together. It felt like closure to all the various Sherlock Holmes series, like Poirot's Curtain in a way. Sublimely acted by all concerned, Sir Ian McKellan is proving he is without a shadow of a doubt one of the very best actors on this planet, he was absolutely amazing. I also thought Laura Linney and Hattie Morahan were also brilliant, but the performance from young Milo Parker was exceptional, I thought he was great. The locations were perfectly fitting to the tone of the film. I loved it, thought it even better on the second viewing, would be nice to see another title with him. 10/10
