Sherlock Holmes Ideology Review

       The famous Sherlock Holmes is at it again! It is obvious that Holmes is the protagonist of this film. And it is no question that he does the things he does for the better. He's a detective solving crimes.
        Now in the movie John Watson announces that Lord Blackwood the antagonist of the movie is indeed fact dead. Although later in the film it is revealed that Blackwood has resurrected from the dead. Blackwood's main goal was to become more of a power figure to London. And by doing this he scared the crowd with his so called "black magic". Holmes and Watson's job is to figure out Blackwood's magic tricks and redeem themselves of the goofed up case.
        Some symbols to look at in this film are the black crows which represent death. The occult symbols would be the satanic worships like the sphinx which represents a "gateway to immeasurable power". The sphinx is made up of four parts being: a foot of a lion, and tail of an ox, wings of an eagle and the head of a man. In the film each part was representing as someone who would die. This played a huge part in the film that the audience doesn't immediately make that connection until it is later revealed.
        This film had many great cinematic outlooks and ideas to Sherlock Holmes.
