I've got to agree with you on this one J.I.! The Sherlock of A.C.Doyle was a fighter, an early practioner of jiujitsu in the stories. He was certainly not a fop of any description.
Another thing this film gets right is Dr. Watson - who was a war veteran and certainly not the buffoon he is often portrayed as in some films.
While I love the Jeremy Brett Holmes interpretation, I must say that we really enjoyed this Sherlock.
