Viewing Notes

via Netflix

Not to be confused with the Robert Downey Jr. blockbuster, this mockbuster has a mob of monsters invading London and Holmes suspects that Spring-Heeled Jack is to blame.  This is probably my favorite of all the films Asylum has put out so far.  It feels about the quality of the 2005 season of the Doctor Who restart and that’s not a bad thing at all.  The acting is pretty good, the special effects do the job but aren’t always amazing, and they picked some decent actors for the parts and it all works and is a fun steampunk Sherlock Holmes romp in London.  I do think I’m a bit partial to this with Gareth David-Lloyd as Watson as he was one of my favorites on Torchwood.  Dominic Keating was also a pleasant surprise as I hadn’t liked him in anything outside of Enterprise, but did like him in this quite a bit.
