And that's a bummer because both the movies have been really great, and Downey Jr as Sherlock is up there with his role as Tony Stark Iron Man. Benedict Cumberbatch does a great role too, but there's something Jack Sparrow-y about this version. But if there is something A Game of Shadows really shines at, it's intelligent writing. It always helps to have Guy Ritchie direct and feature super smart characters like Holmes and Moriarty, but there's more to it as well. And so in today's family friendly episode of Film Perfection, let's see what narrative techniques do the writers use in this movie to pull off a script that comes off as one of the smartest ever written.
