Actors: Alan Cox, Nicholas Rowe Special Features: Widescreen, Anamorphic16x9 Language: English Year: 1985 Runtime: 108 minutes. Review: An Alternate Universe full of Good Form - Young Sherlock Holmes is a unique spin on the classic Sherlock Holmes stories. Now a days we are growing more and more used to adaptations such as Robert Downey Jr.'s films and Sherlock from the BBC. And dozens upon dozens of adaptations have been created featuring this Victorian sleuth. And in 1985, a younger, unique version of the character set about onto his own adventure. Basic Plot Sherlock and Watson are school boys who meet when Watson transfers to the school Holmes has made himself known through amazing feats of intellect. And though Watson is younger than the...18 something Holmes and he is less....quick witted let's say, he brings a friendly and practical element to Holmes' life. He also is loyal quickly and soon they become friends. With Elizabeth (Holmes' love interest), Watson and Holmes we are taken on an exciting mystery of a zealous religious cult, hallucinogenics, several missing women, and several odd deaths . Characters Hands down I believe they are given unique personalities that are true to the nature in general of the books and the actors do a grand job of performing them. Holmes is arrogant and yet sweet, more emotional than tradition and in love (which didn't happen in the books and is still debated where Irene Adler comes in) which I felt was a GREAT aspect. This is younger more impulsive Holmes with a very sweet love story and a budding friendship with Watson. Watson is played as a scared, pudgy boy who dreams of becoming a doctor who has to learn courageousness as the course of the film progresses, and learn to use his mind. Elizabeth, the made up character and 3rd main cast member, doesn't get much screen time, but you gather that she is a relatively intelligent woman (Holmes loves her for goodness sake) with a strong sense of independence while yes, still holding onto some femininity ascribed to Victorian ladies. In general The unique twist of Holmes and Watson meeting at school, later to meet as adults, and growing together, getting glimpses of an unrefined/emotional Holmes and dim-witted Watson shows the developmental stage of this characters. We get an interpretation of the groundwork that will lead into the characters being fully realized later. A fun, unique twist on an old classic is a risky thing to attempt, but this movie was amazing. Fun, funny, mysterious, etc. all in all great!
