Rating: - Wonderfull and exiting adventure
Well I won't go into details about the story, other reviewers have already done this very nicely, I merely just want to endorse the praising reviewers by adding that I totally agree with their opinion about this film in every way - it is really a marvellous adventure, telling the story of Holmes' youth, how he meets Watson for the first time, why he decides later on, to live with the absence of a women in his life and how he comes across his worst enemy Professor Moriarty.

Rating: - Sherlock Holmes cult film classic.
I first saw this amazing film at the cinema when it was first aired. This film turned me into Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's biggest fan. He might not have written this film version story, but I think he would be quite proud of this tale of mystery. Nicholas Rowe is a very talented actor and is perfect playing Holmes. I heard somewhere, that he is going to play Sherlock Holmes once again in a new tale sometime soon. Everyone in this production shines. You will not be disappointed by the cast and the story. ...

Rating: - The game is afoot...
Young Sherlock Holmes got a rough ride when it came out - not so much for the notion of Holmes and Watson meeting as children (there'd been a more straight-laced British childrens' TV series about just that a few years earlier that passed without any noticeable outrage) but because it was felt that it owed far more to executive producer than Steven Spielberg than Arthur Conan Doyle. The fact that after it opened to mediocre business Stateside it was retitled Young Sherlock Holmes and the Pyramid of Fear ... Read More

Rating: - A wonderful film for the most part, until it moves into young Indiana Jones territory during the last 25 minutes
"It was a cold, snowy day in early December. Lack of funds had forced my old school to close. I was being sent to a new one in the middle of term. I was accustomed to the opened, relaxed expanse of the country, and now, I was in the heart of London at the height of the Victorian Era. The streets were teeming with every activity imaginable. I was very taken by what I saw. As I stepped from my carriage, the sight of my new school filled me with fear and apprehension, yet, I was swept with a wave of curiosity. ... Read More

Rating: - Well worth a view
I first saw this film many years ago, and recently bought it for my daughters, who loved it just as much as I had on first viewing. Nicholas Rowe and Alan Cox are wonderful as the young Holmes and Watson, and another reviewer's comment on Cox as Harry Potter is exactly what I thought when watching it again. I thought that Sophie Ward was a bit of a weak link, but not enough to detract from the skill shown by the young men. I know this film has had some poor reviews from film critics, which I think are undeserved. ... Read More
