My favorite movie is “Sherlock Holmes”. This is a movie I watched recently in cinema. It was a very thrilling
journey through time. The film was based on a novel, with the same name. Except the great story, the actors were
great. They really make you think it is happening. The main character wasn’t like the one in novel, it was the complete
opposite, his assistant Dr. Watson. Who is very fat in the novel, isn’t showed like that. He is Sherlock’s conscience,
very handsome, younger man, just like Holmes. In the film, he is trying to prove that magic doesn’t exist and that all
that happened wasn’t because of a bad magician, and he did it. The whole movie is exciting and I didn’t want it to end.
I really liked the movie and I could watch again and again... I think that’s what makes a great movie, when it’s every
time thrilling as the first time you saw it.

My favorite movie is “Sherlock Holmes”. This is a movie I watched recently in cinema. It was a very thrilling
journey through time. The film was based on a novel, with the same name. Except the great story, the actors were
great. They really make you think it is happening. The main character wasn’t like the one in novel, it was the complete
opposite, his assistant Dr. Watson. Who is very fat in the novel, isn’t showed like that. He is Sherlock’s conscience,
very handsome, younger man, just like Holmes. In the film, he is trying to prove that magic doesn’t exist and that all
that happened wasn’t because of a bad magician, and he did it. The whole movie is exciting and I didn’t want it to end.
I really liked the movie and I could watch again and again... I think that’s what makes a great movie, when it’s every
time thrilling as the first time you saw it.
