      Jelisije J A different adaption that took some bold liberties with the source material that left me ultimately disappointed with the overall product. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 03/29/23 Full Review Audience Member Who doesn't love a good Sherlock mystery. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/20/23 Full Review Audience Member Decent television movie of a story that is hard to get tired of. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/06/23 Full Review Audience Member This is a true haunting and atmospheric thrill ride that will scare the daylights out of you and thrill and excite you at the same time. See it, buy it, just get your hands on this one and enjoy. A great story that is beautifully rendered here in celluloid, truthfully and honestly, the way Sir Arthur Conan Doyle would have loved. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/02/23 Full Review Audience Member Was a good adaption of this story. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/18/23 Full Review Audience Member An honest retelling of this story which has been filmed many times and certainly one that Arthur Conan Doyle may have approved of. Unfortunately Ian Richardson, for all his acting talents, is woefully miscast as the great detective. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/15/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating
