...director Guy Ritchie is trying hard to correct our mistake with his populist version of Sherlock Holmes, which features Robert Downey Jr.'s six-pack in a starring role and Jude Law as his partner more in bromance than crime solving. Ritchie's Holmes is smart, to be sure, as he's been in dozens of movies and television series, but his legendary embarrassment of mental riches isn't going to embarrass anyone.

...wronged woman's dream scenario, and Meyers' intent in showing the reality of the fantasy coming true is clever and fresh. But It's Complicated is positioned more as a which-guy-will-she-choose story, and thanks to Jake's clear-cut case of permanent jerkitis, there's not a lot of dramatic tension to feed that plot line.
