Victorian london schoolboys holmes and watson form their habits in pursuit of a deadly pagan cult. Studio: Paramount Home Video Release Date: 03/22/2005 Starring: Nicholas Rowe Anthony Higgins Run time: 109 minutes Rating: Pg13 Director: Barry Levinson

Holmes fans will love this.

This movie is an account of a young Sherlock Holmes who meets a young Watson at a boarding school in Victorian England. There are clues, suspense, special effects and a touch of romance. Egyptian assassins, drugged-laced darts, stained glass knights coming to life to attack a hapless priest, and of course, the kidnapped girl being wrapped in mummy bandages and being encased in wax while alive keep the film moving.
I show this movie to high school sophomores right before a homecoming or a vacation or some other highly anticipated event with good success.

Young Sherlock Holmes

This movie is alot better than the Indiana Jones sequel (Indiana Jones & the Temple of Doom). *That is, whoever got the stupid idea of combining these 2 or putting it another way as a copy cat movie, The Indiana Jones sequels suck big-time. It seems as though CNN & FoxNews got together & put spins/lies galore behind the Indiana Jones sequels. ;(... Just like politics as usual.

Young Sherlock Holmes

I showed this movie to my 8th grade special education class after we read Sherlock Holmes mysteries. It had a good story line and kept the attention of my students, which is quite a task! There was enough suspense and adventure to keep us all on the edge of our seats.

Good stuff

Very well filmed. Big Steve did a good job on this one. Has mystery and fun. A bit much for kids and not a historically correct (as the books go) but a fun way to look at how he might have grown up.

It's not merely elementary, it's for older kids too.

This is a very clever twist on an old tale. Take a beloved character from classic literature and show the world what he might have been like growing up. It's not like this sort of thing hasn't been done before, but this time it is done very well.
The characters are brilliant and the story is fun and interesting. I wish they would have made a whole series of these movies, but this stands well enough alone and sets up the story of why Sherlock Holmes is who he is later in life.
If you like Sherlock Holmes then this is a movie for you, and even if you don't it's still a fun mystery for the whole family.
