As a typical British animated comedy, the concept of integrating Sherlock Holmes into ceramic dolls in "The Naughty Detective" is quite novel, but from the perspective of the actual film, the addition of this character does not actually bring much real life to the film. Fun, in contrast to the clichés and self-proclaimed hilarious easter eggs, just make the household-name detective look all the more embarrassing in the movie.
"Naughty Detective" is not actually a brand new animated film. Its original name is literally translated as "Gnomeo and Juliet 2". There is no Sherlock Holmes in the previous work. The film is about a ceramic doll version of "Romeo". The love story of "with Juliet", of course, does not have Shakespeare's tragic ending at the end, and ends with a happy comedy, and when it comes to this movie, the movie hopes to integrate the story of Sherlock Holmes into it, but it is impossible to change the original one. The protagonist, on the one hand, has to install new scenes for Sherlock Holmes and Watson. In fact, the two cannot find a fulcrum of balance in the film.
It is because of this problem that the film does not have a good beginning at the beginning. For an animated film that is not very famous, it neither looks back on the past experience nor explains the characters, so if you don't Having seen the previous work, it can be said that it is difficult to tell who is the protagonist of the movie. The messy and chaotic double main lines intersect, making people seem to be watching two completely different stories, and forcibly glue the two groups of people together by coincidence. Even more awkward.
In the subsequent development of Sherlock Holmes, although he and the neglected Watson and villains create dramatic tension, the main theme also aims to cherish the people around him, but as a limited space, less than 90 minutes for children. In fact, the movie can't really restore Sherlock Holmes' reasoning so well. All kinds of outdated routines make the movie uninteresting. At the same time, the director is still obsessed with burying a lot of movie egg stalks for the movie, but These embellishments are in a situation where the plot is lengthy and powerless. It can not really bring a smile to adults, and at the same time, it can not bring any kind of feeling to children who can't understand these easter eggs.
It is hoped that "The Naughty Detective" will be bigger than the previous work and use animation to subvert the book. Although it has Hollywood-level superb production, it has not really made good use of the essence of these works, which eventually makes the film into a nondescript movie. low-level animation.
