Top of the Otts Movie Countdown: #19 Sherlock Holmes


19. Sherlock Holmes – OK, so this is kind of Downey Jr. playing Tony Stark only 100 years ago. Wealthy recluse playboy who uses his wits to defeat villains as well as to kick ass. I don’t care, he’s that good! And his side-kick is better. (The villain in this one is somewhat dull, just as in all the Iron Man movies, but the love interest is a bit better). On the unintentional comedy scale, I highly recommend that if you’re bilingual, you read the captions for the dialogue for this movie in the language of your choice. Hysterically frames the challenge of the translator.
