Has anyone seen it, and how does it come across to fans of the original books and the various movies set in the Victorian and Edwardian eras? I've only seen a newspaper review.

I've always thought that if Holmes were alive today, he'd be a computer geek, probably developing viruses and cracking passwords just to see if he could, but never releasing the viruses or using the hacked material for anything evil. I think it was a neat touch that in the original version, Watson was a veteran of an Afghanistan campaign--and in the updated version, he still is.

On the other hand, I'm not sure I would like seeing a modernized version . . .
