Sherlock Holmes A Game of Shadows is basically a comedy it is that right i mean think about Sherlock Holmes as we know it in the books was quite a serious dark take a of a detective and his side kick taking on the evil that is Professor Moriarty, and nowhere in that did I ever imagine that it could become a comedy, not saying that it was a bad film though would recommend it, however i feel that it could have been done with more of a mysterious thriller kind of taste which would have built a more deeper feeling from the viewers
