I have always been fascinated with most of the Sherlock Holmes movies in the past. I saw the two Sherlock movies starring Robert Downey Jr. and Jude Law and really enjoyed them. I have even started following The Sherlock Holmes Society of London. But recently my daughter has started watching the BBC version of Sherlock Holmes starring Benedict Cumberpatch.
Now admittedly, I enjoyed both Sherlock's but Robert Downey Jr. is no match in the Hottie Mchottie department like Benedict Cumberpatch! Ben's sultry voice and deep blue eyes leave me weak in the knees. His character as Sherlock is very intellectual and calculating.
On the flip side (meaning the American Holmes), Robert Downey Jr. as Holmes is more charismatic and witty. This Holmes is not shy about calculating how to beat the crap out of his enemy. I also like his acting style.
Now this blog is not going to be a point by point on each character or actor. I just merely wanted to point out that I am now a HUGE FAN of Benedict Cumberpatch and his wicked handsome self as the Brit's version of Sherlock Holmes. Of course this new celebrity crush is coupled by Ben playing the part of Khan in Star Trek...
and lending his most awesome voice to the dragon Smaug in The Hobbit.
So awesome!
Well, I know I got off subject a bit off subject but that's ok. I'd like to get ON subject when it comes to Ben Cumberpatch.
Until next time....
