The subdued, rapid-fire dialogue comes across better here than it did on the DVD - possibly even in the theater - though there are some bits that are still a bit garbled (indicating an issue with the source and not with this otherwise decent presentation), but the good news is that there are English SDH subtitles so you can still catch it all. Audio effects such as breaking glass, kicks, punches, flying bodies and crumbling walls have been amped up to an unnatural degree, but again, that's more of a stylistic choice than a technical flaw. The action scenes are equally immersive, with pounding, solid bass.
BLU RAY REVIEW SHERLOCK HOLMES COLLECTION FULL
Score: 8 out of 10 Languages and Audio The DTS-HD Master Audio 5.1 track brings the streets of London to life in full 360-degree sound, while delivering Hans Zimmer's lively score with robust fidelity. Imperfections are just part of the film's - and the director's and the star's - quirky charm. And yet, it's not unexpected or unwelcome in this case. With flat background details and shoddy CGI effects that don't stand up to the scrutiny of high-definition, this should be a disappointing presentation. This is a purposefully desaturated affair, with a few shocks of color, like McAdams' rouge dress or bursts of orange flames, all of which gives the film its distinctive look.
Granted, this is Ritchie's style it's gritty, not polished or perfect. Grain plays a big part of that weathered look, but the pushed contrast, resulting in crushed blacks and blown out whites certainly doesn't help. Video and Presentation Much like London itself in Victorian times, the picture here seems somewhat obscured beneath film of grime and muck. CLICK HERE to read the full Sherlock Holmes review by Jim Vejvoda. It really shouldn't work, but for the most part it does. He mixes the brawling and grittiness of Snatch with the cheekiness and briskness of a Mummy or Indy movie. While it often borders on the absurd (if not downright over-the-top), Ritchie manages to keep things on an even keel, just avoiding the cartoonishness that sank that other Victorian literary superhero romp, The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen. Ritchie's Sherlock Holmes is a breathless action-adventure that hits the ground running. Guy Ritchie has made the most exciting, eccentric and accessible film version yet of the world's greatest detective (sorry, fellow Bat-fans, but Arthur Conan Doyle's sleuth held that title long before the Dark Knight). Things hardly seem "elementary" for this Sherlock Holmes. Holmes must not only contend with Irene, and whatever her ties are to his case, but also with the imminent break-up of his partnership with Watson, who is getting married and moving out of the 221B Baker Street flat they've long shared. During the course of his investigation, Holmes' path once again crosses with that of the duplicitous Irene Adler ( Rachel McAdams), the American beauty who broke his heart years before.
