“Well it’s the middle window” There is something about Jude Law’s delivery here that always makes me smile. I think you recognize it if you grew up with a brother
One thing that always bothered me was the fact I could never find the bandaged finger myself when Holmes reveals his observations. I finally found it at 0:46. You can briefly see it when you looking at the bottom of the screen. Mystery solved. 😃
Everyone talking about how Holmes casually jumping into the Thames during the Victorian Era where it was historically at its most polluted. I'm low-key impressed by the fact that Holmes didn't break anything from that height.

Shotgun shells basically never changed since the 1800’s thats actually pretty surprising(i also googled shotgun shells from the 1800’s to compare and the show is damn close)
That actually wasn’t a shotgun. I thought so myself for a long time, but according to Imfdb (the internet movie firearms data base), it’s a Howdah Pistol. Very large caliber, very possibly .577. But fires one large projectile instead of several smaller shot pellets. And I know that shotguns have slugs, but the main difference is that the Howdah is basically a sawn-off rifle. Meaning the barrel is rifled instead of smooth bore like a shotgun is. You’ll also notice that when the wall behind where Sherlock’s head was explodes from the first shot, there is only one, relatively small hole, instead of a spread of holes from a spread of shot.
Mohammed Sarfaraz Well throughout the Middle Ages and Victorian times, it was filled with sewage, faeces, god knows what else. It was a major cause in outbreaks of cholera, dysentery etc from the unsanitary water. Not the cleanest water supply to ever exist, you can say that much.
But the sound of the door unlocking would immediately alert him if Holmes tried going that way, all he'd have to do on hearing the click would be turn and fire.
Something always bothered me about this scene. The inspector gave him the key on a necklace around his neck to escape, but his hands were cuffed behind him. How’d he get out. Also even if he could, why make it so hard to get out.
someone as physically fit as Sherlock Holmes would have had little trouble maneuvering his hands to be in front of him while he was obscured by the smoke. it would only take a few seconds.
@@amazingfan15 I've been handcuffed and I seriously doubt that. I'm reasonably physically fit but I think even the most athletic person would find it quite difficult to move their arms so that they could fit your body through there let alone quietly or in smoke. Perhaps a contortionist could do so? I suspect the answer is that A 2848 misread the scene and the key was dropped loose down Holmes's shirt where he could awkwardly retrieve it.
The mud smeared on your boots from where you’ve been walking. A touch of red brick dust on your knee from where you’ve been kneeling. A small bandage on your thumb from where you’ve been vowing.

3:17 holmes uses force speed like in the beginning of the phantom menace where qui gon and obiwan used to get away from the droidecas. the shield droids.
@@nitro-ww6sk because he wasnt in the smoke, it was a diversion to keep his attention, he assumed Holmes was inside and with the sound ricocheting around the room, it would be hard to discern where the voice was coming from. it gave him ample time to loop around behind the pillars and furniture to the chair he was sitting in when he was revealed.
I like how the whole scene has windows on one side and solid walls on the other 3 in that room, yet the outside look at the building shows it to be a corner room, so where are the windows on the side where the fireplace smoke came from? That's clearly a fuck up on the editing part, but otherwise, solid movie.
Big question: How did Sherlock not need to cough once when he’s was in all that smoke? Edit: I also realised recently that my eyes tended to water when they are in smoke, so how he isn’t affected by that as well, not sure
I love this movie. My only issue with the whole thing is one, how. No one cares that he just fired a hand cannon in the building twice. Second since no one cared why not fire from the window at the boat.
The only time the inspector wasn't acting was the punch lol
Did holmes also predict that serious punch?
Hanan Rifki it's possible they discussed it beforehand

Hell of an observation skill, sir. Most people don't notice the impact small cues.

Goes straight to “Holmes theme”
Lestrade's betrayal may have been fake but the punch was very real.
yeah, he took the opportunity to hit Holmes for real while disguising it as fake. 😂
Jumping into the Thames in Victorian times? Brave man. Another reason why Holmes is a badass, that would kill most people....

Lord Coward *opens the window*
He even knew the window would get opened. Smart play.
Part of the plan with smoking out the room was forcing Coward to clear the smoke somehow. Holmes thinks like that and its great.
he did... he even said so himself... lestrade has always been on holmes' side even though he can't stand the man.
A bit late to comment this but the same goes for Watson
He can somewhat stand him, to the extent of being a regular visitor to the apartment, but he can get somewhat competitive. And arrogant. Recognize any similarities..? Yup! Hardheads. Both of them.
That's a point of view... 🤔
Lestrade is on the side of justice. As much as he can't stand Holmes, he begrudgingly respects his ability to get work done
You don’t have to necessarily like a person to respect them
The vibe that Robert Downey Jr brings in this iterations of Sherlock Holmes gives off Captain Jack Sparrow's vibes and I'm living for it

“Well it’s the middle window”
There is something about Jude Law’s delivery here that always makes me smile. I think you recognize it if you grew up with a brother
These two movies felt the closest to the actual novel, to the point that when I read the dialouges in the book I hear their voices naratting it.
Which novel, though?
One thing that always bothered me was the fact I could never find the bandaged finger myself when Holmes reveals his observations. I finally found it at 0:46. You can briefly see it when you looking at the bottom of the screen. Mystery solved. 😃
You can see it better as he's loading the gun at 1:31 onward.
1.42 precisely...
But Holmes would have only seen it at 0:46, considering his back is turned while loading the gun
I enjoy using this soundtrack while playing AC Syndicate , fits well.
'Rocky Road to Dublin' is also perfect for the Fight Club activities!
Nice! You'd like Arsene Lupin by Debbie Wiseman with it too.
Gross ass ass in creed
I myself find them to be of particular utility for my D&D games, especially in urban environments.
What was the soundtrack used here?
"Well at least this solves the great mystery as to how you became inspector" LOL! As they say it's not what you know but who you know.
Idk why,but I always like it when Holmes throw some shade to the officers 😅 both book and film
Everyone talking about how Holmes casually jumping into the Thames during the Victorian Era where it was historically at its most polluted.

@@randomknight2585 I found it, interesting.
Well, the human body is surprisingly resilient, but I still wouldn’t have done it. At least not head-first…
This scene proves how op Sherlock’s perception is
It’s the tiniest of details that solve the biggest mysteries
The Boudicca statue that you see at 4:24 as the boat is going through the bridge is an error as it wasn’t erected until 1902.

Did you know that the River Thames was declared biologically dead in Victorian times?
And Holmes fucking swan dived in.

Lestrade wasn't actually in the order, Holmes picked the pin off someone else earlier in the movie
At exactly 3:18 Sherlock Holmes literally dodges a speeding bullet. Didn't know his skills of deduction gave him super speed!

"... Its middle window"

But the sound of the door unlocking would immediately alert him if Holmes tried going that way, all he'd have to do on hearing the click would be turn and fire.
is it me or does sherlock holmes remind me of jack sparrow?
Sherlock is cooler
Ah yes 8 years ago when the Pirates of the Carrabian movies were still good.
Jack Sparrow is a captain of the Black Pearl😉
The most fantastical part of this movie is Holmes diving into the river Thames on purpose in Victorian London
Let's take a moment to address that Sherlock Holmes pretty much told the guy he smells like shit to his face with little wind-up

A faint sprinkle of onions from

Any others? :D
i see remarkable resemblance between holmes & cap. jack sparrow
Sherlock is lucky that he decided to monologue with his back to Sherlock so that the smoke had time to envelop him.
I watched this about like 30 times already. I watched every clip to where I basically know the whole movie
Man....m desperately...Waiting for 3 movie of the series....RDJ is sublimely awesome...As Holmes
3:13 this scene from the trailer is the reason i watched this movie 😂
That's like the most Assassin's Creed shit I've ever seen!
What's the point of locking the door if you're gonna leave the key?
It would make a noise if holmes unlocked the door. Yes opening the unlocked door would do so too, but it would take less time to get out.
I think the main idea is it would take a lot longer to get through the door, thus allowing him to shoot Holmes during that time.
Hans Matheson is such an underrated actor.
3:17 holmes uses force speed like in the beginning of the phantom menace where qui gon and obiwan used to get away from the droidecas. the shield droids.
By the time you load your gun, Sherlock Holmes will have already deduced how to get the information he needs from you AND remove his shackles.
do you people realize how filthy the thames is?

Don't forget how freezing cold it is, even in warm temperatures

What's the point of closing the door but leaving the key on it? Like he have a mortal illnes that forbid him to use any keys?
all that smoke, and no coughing or watery eyes. hand cuffed behind him, key in the front of his shirt. escape level: houdini
This movie man...hits differently
I love the old victorian era steam tug boats horns. The huffing and puffing engines. It sounds so ghostly. England level ghostly.
How'd neither of them cough uncontrollably in all that smoke?
One of the greatest scenes of all time
,,Lion is Parlament"
Please more Sherlock Holmes movies they don't make great movies like this anymore
"well it's the middle window.."
Like the smoke would hang so low. Usually fills a room top down. Not too realistic that way, clearly a smoke machine was used.
Could hang that low depending on the type of wood that was burnt
ok, but how did he breath in there? he should be coughing like a 90 year old lung cancer patient

So sad that there are only two movies, there could have been many more and I'd have watched them all at the theater.

At 3:19 Holmes dodges a bullet like he’s frickn Neo.
nice jump , sherlock holmes
How he opened the handcuffs with the key in his clothes?
Why bother with the smoke play when you can apparently just dodge bullets anyway?
because he needed to stall in order to gain information.
