The Asylum Presents Sir Arthur Conan Doyles Sherlock Holmes

[EvigMidnat]

Well if no one else is going to mention it, I will

 

Did you bother?

Do you love It?

Do you Hate it?

Have you even ever heard of it?

 

 

I heard about this at Hub... 3 I think it was, because I told Gareth David-Lloyd he'd kick ass as Sherlock only to find out he was playing Watson

I loved it! not as so much a Sherlock film but in its own right, it didn't say it was Based on Sherlock, so it wasn't putting itself on a pedestal and Gareth rocked (even with face fur)

I've not seen it, but I'm intrigued. More about seeing Gareth David-Lloyd take on Watson than about the rest, I guess

[EvigMidnat]

i'd link but it may be considered Adult content thanks to him

Ahm, yeah, I think I have seen it... Vague memories, but yeah, I seem to recall

It's rather silly at times, but great fun. Costuming is a bit off though (GDL would have looked much better in stuff that actually fit him properly).

I saw a review of this at ThatGuyWithTheGlasses.com (I think Lupa reviewed it?). It looked hilarious but nothing that should be taken too seriously.

It's not bad. The story is different, it's a bit far-fetched really with gigantic sea monsters. It's also not very high budget and you can tell. But it's fun as long as you're not expecting too much from it.

 

Gareth is brilliant as always, but as aely mentioned... that waistcoast could have been measured much better!

Ooooh I saw it and sadly was underwhelmed. Guess I was expecting too much. I made myself sit through it,but found it a bit cringe worthy. Actually made me feel awkward for GDL.

[Angstosaur]

It's cheaply made and it shows ... sadly... not quite bad enough to be brilliant. I got it to see GDL in anything to be honest, but the badly fitting suit was awful, although he delivered his lines with tongue planted firmly in cheek. I've heard GDL say that there was very little health and safety when it came to stunts as well, so that scene with Watson scrambling up a cliff looking terrified didn't require too much acting!

 

It could be the least Sherlocky of all things Sherlock I have watched ... but very silly ...

 

If Benedict Cumberbatch is a sublime Sherlock, this one is truly ridiculous ...
