Sick Product of a Sick System

A lot of fun.

This story has more twists and turns than a second-rate soap opera.

The first must-see film of the year.

I try to find something positive in anything I watch but now I'm just ready to fall asleep. There are some cool graphics in Sherlock's day dreams but otherwise this is a waste of time and had to shut it off 30 minutes into it.

Sherlock Gnomes was as average of a sequel as you can find. There wasn't anything very special about it, not much to look back on. It was just very average. Sherlock Gnomes took the average success of Gnomeo and Juliet and combined that with the actual success of Sherlock Holmes and just smashed the two together. Very similar to Lego video games. They just change the way that the same exact movie is presented. Due to this, they are banking on the success and fanbase of the original movie to go and see this adaptation. Sherlock Gnomes was an average interpretation at best. There were some good Sherlock Holmes moments, but everything between was bland and uneventful. Pair all of this with an art style and quality that wasn't the highest, and you get a low budget, low success, average movie. Expect more cheap gnome knock-offs.

Sherlock Gnomes is a sequel to the film Gnomeo and Juliet which was released back in 2011. The first film was just ok, however the sequel sucks. The first problem with this film is just boring it is. I probably haven't felt this emotionless when watching a film in a long time. The other reason why this is a bad movie is how the film wanted you to think Moriaty is dead at the beginning but I knew he really wasn't so the end wasn't really a surprise when he did return. For me the only good things from this film was a good message regarding how you should treat people in your life, a surprise twist 'villain' because the surprise villain isn't really a villain along with good animation. Overall this film may have some good qualities but the rest is so dull and forgettable that the film leaves you emotionless Final Rating: 3/10

Thanks to the glory of movie pass, I am now enabled to spend my time seeing movies like Sherlock Gnomes. The upside to this movie was that it didn't take itself seriously, which should in theory make it immune to critique. The downside, however, is everything about it. This movie is certainly not worth anyone's time.
