Test 2 Review

Sherlock review 

Sherlock is a TV series written by Steven Moffat and Mark Gatis, based on the popular detective novels by Arthur Conan Doyle, brings the popular English detective Sherlock Holmes to present time. With the amazing portrayal of Benedict Cumberbatch the character is given life and a sense of humor that's barely seen  in other tv series or movies.

Sherlock Holmes, along with Dr. Watson, solve murder cases in the city of London. Each episode has a different case with its own unique mystery and solution. The way that the world is presented feels believable, as they don't have trouble with implementing the modern touch of the 21th century to stories that took place in the Victorian era. 

Though the show's main theme is detective drama it doesn't stop it from having fun with its plot and its character. It's cleverly Implemented into the story and it works perfectly. It doesn't feel forced or as a way to keep the audielnce entertained, it feels as if it was meant to be in such a way. Even though the show follows, what some may consider, dark subjects they placed the comedy in a way that doesn't feel out of place. 

Overall, the comedy in this show took me by surprise, as I expected a serious drama. And in many ways I feel that it's placement improved Sherlock drastically making it one of my favorites thus far. It's a outstanding series with great plot, astonishing acting and clever direction, I truly recommend watching it as it is an original idea that must praised in a time were these lack.
