Sherlock takes the case and he and Watson head to the mortuary, leaving a very angry Mary behind. Holmes is uninterested until he learns that the bride was spotted by a police officer the next night, shooting her own husband. When Lestrade arrives and very fearfully relates to Holmes & Watson the case of the Abominable Bride, a Gothic tale of tragedy involving an unhappy bride, shooting away at men from a balcony only to take her own life later. John is as funny as ever, if not a bit thickheaded at times (the man didn’t even know his own wife’s perfume). It was almost as if he were performing on a stage, rather than in a movie. The dialogue is funny and fast paced, however, it is somewhat unnerving to see Sherlock behaving in a more theatrical way that we are used to. Hudson, who is very funny, telling John that she detests his stories in the paper as she never has anything to say in them. The scenery is quite beautiful with carriages, velvet covered chairs and top hatted Londoners walking about, and we are taken to 221 B Baker Street and meet Mrs. It recreated John’s war experiences, their first introduction to each other and my personal favorite, Sherlock beating a corpse with a whip.Īfterwards you are thrust into the world of Victorian England in the 1800’s.
Movie review sherlock the abominable bride series#
Now… I have to admit I was intrigued at the idea of Sherlock set in the Victorian era and what exactly Sherlock would be like residing in the past instead of the more modern era and I think that the creators of the series strived to give fans something unusual without exactly continuing the series altogether.įirst, you have a recap of all the previous Sherlock seasons, which leads into an “alternative” recreation of Sherlock & Watson’s first meeting through their friend, Mike Stamford. It contains lots of spoilers, so if you haven’t seen it… **This review of STAB is my opinion and mine alone.
