Initially, I thought this was going to be an early Conan Doyle work, I had no idea what was to follow, but my curiosity as to the high rating had me intrigued.
What an absolute marvel this film is, what a work of creative genius, I think I've come to understand fnr sheer significance of this film, the sheer imagination is astounding.
I was surprised to learn that this film wasn't seemed a success when it landed, was it simply a case that audiences weren't quite ready for it?
It's funny, some of the early sequences are very, very funny, it changes as it progresses, and there's definitely some heart to the story.
Daring, clever, fast paced, the 45 minutes flew by, I am stunned by the audacity of this film.
9/10.
