YOUNG SHERLOCK HOLMES (1985). Really good imaging of how Holmes and Watson met and how they acquired the tics of their personalities. Nicholas Rowe and Alan Cox are well cast and certainly have the characteristics needed. Great sets of Victorian London and I believe the first use of CGI in a film. Only beef I can think of is there are too many of Executive Producer Steven Speilberg touches, at times making this almost into a Indiana Jones story. Still worth seeing and too bad this didn't do so well..I certainly would have liked a few more of these. ***1/2

I don't even remember this film. Pretty sure I never saw it. Guess it was just released at a bad time. I'm not sure I like the mixing of Sherlock Holmes with the supernatural, I mean unless he's unmasking the fakery of it. Otherwise Holmes seems to lose his identity.
