Reaction:
A great followup to the first film, though a bit too much on the big action set pieces.

Trivia:
SPOILER:The movie is primarily based on the short story @#The Final Problem#@ by Sir `~8398~` (and to a lesser extent on @#The Empty House#@), but also shows aspects from other @##Sherlock Holmes##@ stories: @#The Sign of Four#@ (introduction of Watson's fiancée); @#The Greek Interpreter#@ (introduction of Mycroft Holmes); @#Valley of Fear#@ (explanation of Moriarty's underworld empire); @#The Speckled Band#@; @#The Dying Detective#@; @#Bruce Partington Plans#@; and @#The Second Stain#@.:SPOILER `~9596~`, `~1701~`, `~Daniel Day-Lewis~`, `~5963~` and `~13799~` were considered to play Moriarty. `~8692~`, `~Audrey Tautou~`, `~9838~`, `~14822~`, `~Virginie Ledoyen~`, `~2656~`, `~12901~` and `~Cécile De France~` were considered to play Sim before `~13677~` was cast. SPOILER:Sherlock defeats Moriarty by pulling him over Reichenbach Falls, with both of them falling to their apparent deaths; Holmes is later shown to have survived. In `~8398~`'s story @#The Final Problem#@ (intended to be the final @##Sherlock Holmes##@ story), Holmes defeats Moriarty in the same way, by falling over a waterfall to the apparent death of both. However, in response to overwhelming public demand, Doyle wrote another story and resurrected Holmes.:SPOILER SPOILER:Watson's voice over speech during Sherlock Holmes' funeral was taken almost word for word from the story @#The Final Problem#@, in which Sherlock Holmes "dies" pulling Moriarty over a cliff with him.:SPOILER At the beginning when Watson is typing, the camera pans over typed excerpts from `~8398~`'s stories, including @#The Blue Carbuncle#@ and @#A Study in Scarlet#@. Due to Warner Bros.' fast-tracking of this sequel, director `~12983~` was forced to drop out of Lobo, while `~7399~` was forced to drop out of !~cowboyalien~!~Cowboys & Aliens~!. `~6638~` (Mycroft) and `~8389~` (Moriarty) share the same birthday. The medals Watson wears during his stag party are the Afghan War Medal (red and green ribbon) and the Kandahar Bronze Star (multi-colored striped ribbon), which would make Watson a veteran of the Second Afghan War (1878-1880). At the end of the train sequence, Watson says to Holmes, "Once more unto the breach". This is a line from a speech in @%Henry V%@ by `~1531~`. Much later in the play's speech, @%Henry V%@ also exclaims, "The game is afoot", which Holmes used as a catchphrase in `~8398~`'s stories. In 2003 `~6638~` appeared on the UK quiz show Celebrity Mastermind. His special subject was `~8398~`'s Sherlock Holmes, including a question on Mycroft Holmes. He choose this topic because he loved @##Sherlock Holmes##@ stories as a child and at the age of 10 was the youngest member of London's Sherlock Holmes Appreciation Society. Watson is called "John H. Watson" in the `~8398~` stories except for one brief scene in @#The Man with the Twisted Lip#@ when his wife calls him "James." This puzzled scholars for years until `~Dorothy L. Sayers~` suggested that the "H" stood for "Hamish," the Scottish equivalent of "James." In the film Watson's middle name is "Hamish." The text of the note that Holmes leaves Watson on the packing crate reads: "Come at once if convenient. If inconvenient come all the same". This quote is taken directly from Holmes creator `~8398~`'s short story @#The Adventure of the Creeping Man#@. The chess game between Holmes and Moriarty was based on a real match between `~Bent Larsen~` & `~Tigran Petrosian~` in 1966 in Santa Monica. The game had a Queen sacrifice and discovered checkmate to win the game. The opening moves are slightly different and the colors have been reversed though. The 15-second onscreen dance between `~10996~` and `~13677~` in the gypsy camp took three days to shoot. `~7399~` came up with the idea for the disguise as a cross-dresser, which was originally a priest. Whether Downey knew it or not, in @#The Adventure of the Mazarin Stone#@ Holmes is in fact said to have disguised himself as an old woman. The chess board motif runs through out the whole film in either actual chess boards or floors with Black and white checkered squares.
