Fitting comfortably into his new career as Inspirational Old British Man, Sir Ian McKellen’s latest movie role is the world’s most famous opium addict, Sherlock Holmes, forty years after the cases and criminals which made him a household name. Mr. Holmes looks less like a Robert Downey Jr.-style action/adventure flick and more like one of those familiar British films where a crusty old man meets a wide-eyed young kid and remembers the meaning of happiness or something. Still looks kind of cool, though.
