Trailer: A Game of Shadows

The new trailer for Sherlock Holmes:  A Game of Shadows is here! In it, Sherlock Holmes and his reluctant sidekick Dr. Watson join forces to outwit and bring down their fiercest adversary, Professor Moriarty. Will it be better than the visually stunning (if weak-plotted) predecessor? I can't help but think the answer is a resounding yes.

The first full trailer for the upcoming Sherlock Holmes sequel A Game of Shadows has hit the web. It’s not unlike the trailer for the first film really, except for Holmes in drag.

Sherlock Holmes has always been the smartest man in the room… until now. There is a new criminal mastermind at large—Professor Moriarty (Jared Harris)—and not only is he Holmes’ intellectual equal, but his capacity for evil, coupled with a complete lack of conscience, may actually give him an advantage over the renowned detective.

When the Crown Prince of Austria is found dead, the evidence, as construed by Inspector Lestrade (Eddie Marsan), points to suicide. But Sherlock Holmes deduces that the prince has been the victim of murder—a murder that is only one piece of a larger and much more portentous puzzle, designed by one Professor Moriarty.

Mixing business with pleasure, Holmes tracks the clues to an underground gentlemen’s club, where he and his brother, Mycroft Holmes (Stephen Fry) are toasting Dr. Watson on his last night of bachelorhood. It is there that Holmes encounters Sim (Noomi Rapace), a Gypsy fortune teller, who sees more than she is telling and whose unwitting involvement in the prince’s murder makes her the killer’s next target. Holmes barely manages to save her life and, in return, she reluctantly agrees to help him.
The investigation becomes ever more dangerous as it leads Holmes, Watson and Sim across the continent, from England to France to Germany and finally to Switzerland. But the cunning Moriarty is always one step ahead as he spins a web of death and destruction—all part of a greater plan that, if he succeeds, will change the course of history.

We still couldn't tell you with any certainty just how Pirates Of The Caribbean: On Stranger Tides is going to turn out. What seems clear is that the lessons of the last two movies have been thoroughly digested, but then that still leaves quite a job to try and measure up to the commercial and critical success of The Curse Of The Black Pearl. Check it out in theaters May 20, 2011.
