Nicholas Rowe played the movie version of Holmes. we became great friends. He later starred in our short horror thriller Stay Alert.
neutral · AI labelView post →Re-watched the great 2015 film MR. HOLMES. Man, the acting of Sir Ian McKellan in this one, playing an aged Sherlock Holmes attempting to solve one final mystery, is absolutely god-tier. Should have been Oscar-nominated. Love this movie.

positive · AI labelView post →Fyi If you're a fan of Sir Ian McKellen and of Sherlock Holmes movies, you will love Ian McKellen as an ageing Sherlock Holmes in the 2015 film Mr. Holmes.
neutral · AI labelView post →I'm not really into wholesome movies, but last night I watched the movie "Mr Holmes" it was very well acted and directed, Sir Ian McKellens portrayal of an aging Sherlock Holmes in the throes of dementia was wonderful.
positive · AI labelView post →Completed with Mr. Holmes (2015), a slow, melancholy film about an elderly and retired Sherlock Holmes trying to stave off dementia in order to write the truth about his final case, all while a young fan encourages him to pick up the profession again. It's surprisingly good, with great acting.
positive · AI labelView post →There's a movie on called Mr. Holmes from 2015 and it stars Ian McKellen and Hiroyuki Sanada so of course I'll be watching this later

neutral · AI labelView post →It's an odd view, not least because the five Craig movies stand as their own little continuity in any case. It's like "In MR. HOLMES (2015), Holmes is retired and Watson is long dead, therefore we cannot do a film with a younger Holmes and Watson EVER AGAIN." Mate, trust me, you really can.

neutral · AI labelView post →I watched a really good Ian Mckellen movie called “Mr Holmes” and I thought it was good. You might like it too.
positive · AI labelView post →there's a really good fun 80s Young Sherlock Holmes movie. It makes no sense for him to know Watson at school but still a fun film. Also the kid who plays him, appears in Ian McKellen's Mr. Holmes as a middle aged Holmes.
neutral · AI labelView post →I rarely go to the cinema and when I do it is to see a film I want not a social event. Such a curmudgeon am I , maybe Mr Holmes would have a similar view.

neutral · AI labelView post →Movie 73/2024: Mr Holmes (Condon, 2015). I’m always in for Holmes interpretations, but this was hopelessly muddled. Ian McKellen can’t save it (also: he’s a lot of things, but Holmes he is not!). ⭐️

neutral · AI labelView post →Interesting thing about The Final Solution. It was in development as a film for Ian McKellen at one point, who later went on to do "Old Man Holmes" in Mr. Holmes.
neutral · AI labelView post →Maybe a bit cheesy, but I really liked this dialogue from a movie called Mr Holmes: It's us, on this side, who are, all of us so... Alone? I have been alone... all my life. But with the compensations of the intellect. - And is that enough? - It can be. 1/2
positive · AI labelView post →is Mr. Holmes a good movie?
neutral · AI labelView post →I try to watch all the Sherlock movies and TV shows. I've yet to read a Holmes book. I think that may be next. A really good movie was "Mr. Holmes", starring Ian McKellan. I highly recommend it.
positive · AI labelView post →A very touching film, "Mr. Holmes," if you need a break from all of this chaol. #film #MrHolmes
positive · AI labelView post →I tapped out at after series 2 and even then it was abundantly clear they weren't very interested in having Holmes be involved in detective work or solve any cases really. I do like the film Mr Holmes that also plays with the formula but that works because it's the Holmes we know in old age.

It's the story of Sherlock Holmes, set in 1947 when the great detective is 93 and slowly losing his famously sharp wits while also connecting with the young son of his mistrusting housekeeper. Very good so far!
positive · AI labelView post →> The famous English detective at his old age. Ian McKellen as Sherlock Holmes, totally loved it.

So with the help of the boy, he undertakes to correct the book version of the story and besides, they…
