Sherlock Holmes (2010 Video)
4/10
Once seen, never forgotten - not neccessarily in a good way!

OMG this has to be one of the best bad films I've seen in a while!!

As well as Sherlock Holmes expect to see a Velociraptor, a giant squid, a bit of steampunk, a prototype Iron Man suit, spring-heeled Jack (not THE spring heeled jack - random brother of Holmes that nobody has ever heard of) and a lot more bonkers in this Asylum film.

Ben Snyder is cast as the central hero in the film, basically everything about the film is set up to be a vehicle for him - unfortunately he won't be winning any pats on the back, he's awful, and its the others in the cast that save him at times. His cockiness becomes down right annoying and my TV was lucky not to have been smashed up as a result of his levels of smug. Bearing in mind that there are dinosaurs and steampunk elements don't expect an accurate portrayal of the time it's set in - heck, don't expect the plot to be any good either. You'll spend my time confuddled that in enjoyment, but it's not the worst Asylum film I've seen this year!!! I can only assume this film was created to cash in on other Holmes based films which have been launched at around the same time. Might be worth a watch if you are drunk or maybe if you enjoy bad films, if you expect a vehicle to suspend your disbelief look elsewhere. 4/10 is generous.
