Probably one of the better entries in the Holmes franchise, but Conan-Doyle purists will have a lot to balk at - the dithering Nigel Bruce playing Watson as strictly comedy relief being the most outrageous example. More of a crimefighter than a sleuth, Rathbone is quite good, but Ida Lupino plays against type as a Victorian damsel in distress. Lots of holes in the plot too - but overall, it's enjoyable enough.

This is a fun little movie that pretty much established the familiar image of Sherlock Holmes, with his deerstalker cap, meerschaum pipe, and tendency to say things like, "Elementary, my dear Watson." The plot actually isn't as good as I had hoped, since we know from the beginning that Professor Moriarty is behind everything. Still, I can see why Basil Rathbone's Holmes is iconic, and Nigel Bruce is very good as Doctor Watson. Ida Lupino is also good as the damsel-in-distress. George Zucco makes a fine Professor Moriarty. The direction and everything are competent, pretty standard for the time. My literary knowledge let me figure out one clue twenty minutes before Holmes did! Elementary!

I defy anyone not to simply love these films and this one is a real gem. The production value alone makes this a joy coupled with great acting and directing. Rathbone IS Holmes who simply makes every scene he is in.

I just love these old Holmes flicks. Rathbone and Bruce are amazing, and this one's gorgeous. Love the scene with Watson as the "Dead body" on the street.

Ah, yes. The second installment in a long line of Holmes films. This gives us the character of Moriarty back. The plot is very involving and Rathbone is the only Sherlock Holmes who really looked like Holmes. The famous detective is so stylized and treated with great dignity. The era that film purports to be in, Victorian London is recreated in great detail.
