"Sherlock Holmes" (Downey, Jr.), with the aid of his trusted ally Dr. John Watson (Law), is unequaled in his pursuit of criminals. He employs his own quirky and unique (albeit at times, unconventional), methods to get to the heart of a case, traveling where no one else would think to go to find what others cannot see... But now a storm is gathering, a threat unlike anything that Holmes has ever confronted. After a string of ritualistic murders, Holmes and Watson arrive just in time to save the latest victim and uncover the killer: Lord Blackwood (Strong). As he approaches his scheduled hanging, Blackwood warns Holmes that death has no power over him, and when that prediction comes true, London and Scotland Yard are left confounded. Bu to Holmes, the game is afoot. Racing to stop Blackwood's deadly plot, Holmes and Watson plunge into a world of the dark arts and new technologies, where logic is sometimes the best crime-fighting weapon. Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson were created by the late Sir Arthur Conan Doyle and appear in stories and novels by him. (Gary Reber)
