Repeat of the First with Less Mystery

If you liked the first one, you will like the second one. If you thought the first one was mediocre (like me), you'll find the second to be the same. In this go around, Holmes and Watson deal with Moriaty. This seems more like a action movie where they track down Moriaty to stop his evil plot, rather than a mystery where you are trying to figure things out. This movie has no big surprises, and for me, has too much of the slow motion sequences where Holmes can see what cause and effects will happen on the action sequence that is about to happen. Given the movies we've had this year, this movie is ok, and well worth a rental, but you can probably skip watching it in the theatre.
