once again detonating the screen
Since the last episode, the action hero of Sherlock Holmes has been very successful, Guy Ritchie has been thinking of directing another Sherlock Holmes movie in the same style, and the end of the first episode is also reserved for Xu Ji. It is a foreshadowing, so the attack of "The Great Detective Sherlock Holmes 2" is reasonable. For this film, director Guy Ritchie from England said: "We had a great time shooting the last film, and filming in the UK made me very relaxed and at ease. So, this second film is a logical progression. Although the last episode of Sherlock Holmes was very popular, I still hope that I can make this one better and more convincing. More interesting and unexpected ideas in terms of characters and plot Moreover, we also upgraded the action scenes a little bit, and polished the plot carefully. I believe this movie will be more enjoyable than the last one."
For this "Sherlock Holmes", the film Producer Lionel Wigram said: "In this episode, Guy Ritchie has done a lot of new things, and he continues to break with the traditional image of Sherlock Holmes and Watson, using the concept of action film and The idea of a spy film is to shoot a costume drama. Actually, this is quite interesting, because the audience will look forward to seeing a different character on the screen, and more importantly, in this film, the audience sees a different character The same characters they are familiar with. It's very interesting. If you look at the film itself, Guy Ritchie has complicated the plot in this film, there is a conspiracy theory preset in the film, and the action scenes have been upgraded. It can be said that the film is more entertaining, and the subversion of the detective and Sherlock Holmes is also more thorough." Regarding the changes in the film, Guy Ritchie said: "In fact, there are reasons for change and change, and these two processes are actually It is one thing. In this film, I am most concerned about one thing, and that is the relationship between Sherlock Holmes and Watson. It should be said that the most attractive part of the film is this. If there is no such thing, maybe This movie can be any story, not a Sherlock Holmes story."

It was Robert Downey Jr. and Jude Law who played Sherlock Holmes and Watson in the film. For them, playing these two roles is quite familiar.

In this film, Peras's performance is very good, she plays a The characteristics that a mysterious fierce girl should have, and she gets along very well with other actors. Her arrival brought a fresh feeling to the crew, and this feeling was also brought into the film. So, I appreciate and love her performance." In order to play her role well, Peras also did a lot of preliminary work, she said: "The role of this gypsy girl is completely unfamiliar to me, I have never Haven't had a role like this on screen. So I did a lot of research on the Gypsies and learned about their culture, customs, witchcraft, etc. And I speak some Romanian myself, and I also put It's used in the film. Other aspects, I also learned some dances, some specific gestures and so on. Guy Ritchie is very satisfied with my performance. Downey and Jude Law are undoubtedly big stars, I was fascinated by their accents and their performances. They were also very brave when they were filming the action scenes. Actually, everyone on this crew was very dedicated and we actors, directors and producers were all working on one goal And work hard."

Luckily, Jared Harris did a great job."
