[color=#3f3f3f][font=Verdana, 宋体, helvetica, arial, sans-serif][size=12px][p=21, 2, left]Fans of the world’s most popular detective took to the streets of London on Tuesday for the world premiere of the latest[b] cinematic take on [/b]the pipe-smoking [b]sleuth[/b].[/p][p=21, 2, left]British director Guy Ritchie presented his version of the [b]Victorian[/b]detective at a red-carpet ceremony attended by the film’s stars Robert Downey Jr and Jude Law, as well as many other [b]top-notch[/b] celebrities.[/p][p=21, 2, left]Ritchie will be hoping that his latest film will find favour with the viewing public following the failure of recent ‘[b]turkeys[/b]’ such as Rocknrolla or Swept Away, which featured a [b]much-derided [/b]performance from ex-wife Madonna.[/p][float=right][img=226,170]http://www.24en.com/d/file/bbc/bbc2/2009-12-17/aa410c5f5a7735d9532d23b751b8358f.jpg[/img][p=30, 2, left]A waxwork figure of Robert Downey Jr as Holmes has been made[/p][/float]

[p=21, 2, left]The new film sees the [url=http://d.24en.com/s/?wd=character]character[/url] of Sherlock Holmes re-imagined as a[b]bullet-dodging[/b] action hero rather than the more [b]cerebral protagonist[/b] of the short stories and novels by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle.[/p][p=21, 2, left]Indeed some critics have suggested that the ‘[b]Hollywood-isation[/b]’ of Holmes extends even to the film’s [b]storyline[/b].[/p][p=21, 2, left]Holmes’ cases usually focus on particular crimes, such as murder or[b]blackmail[/b], committed by individuals; however, Ritchie’s Holmes must face a [b]supernatural[/b] enemy who plans to return from the dead, [b]infiltrate parliament[/b], and take over the world.[/p][p=21, 2, left]The [b]Hound of the Baskervilles[/b] must seem like a [b]harmless pooch [/b]after that.[/p][p=21, 2, left]The American actor who plays Sherlock Holmes has done a remarkable job in adopting a refined English accent for the role and has spoken of his experience of [b]handling the complexities [/b]of Holmes’ [url=http://d.24en.com/s/?wd=character]character[/url].[/p][p=21, 2, left]"He [Holmes] is tortured by anything that is [b]mundane[/b]," said Downey Jr.[/p][p=21, 2, left]"Then again Holmes says there is nothing more [b]stimulating[/b] than a case where nothing goes your way, so he’s a bit of a [b]weirdo[/b]," Downey Jr added.[/p][p=21, 2, left]So if you are a fan of the greatest fictional detective, you can [b]track him down [/b]to a cinema soon.[/p][/size][/font][/color]
