Title: A Must See for Kids
Review: This is vintage Holmes. The story is about a person who seems to have supernatural powers and tries to bandy together a group of loyalists from the parliament to control the country. My daughter watched the movie and shouted, mid-way, "Dad, this is black magic!". The 'black magic' is extremely convincing. And when Sherlock Holmes explains all the supernatural phenomena, my daughter was completely flabbergasted. She did say, "Dad, there is no black magic - everything has to have a reason". IF any movie can send that message to children, I think it has more than achieved its objective. On the side, I watched the movie before she did and I enjoyed this movie thoroughly. I highly recommend it for family viewing (it is PG-13 rated).
