A good, by-the-numbers effort with Cumberbatch showing he's not James Mason or Dirk Bogarde--- but he's okay. Keira Knightley, however, is a revelation. Or maybe it's just that she looked so damn beautiful I can't maintain a critical distance? Those big brown eyes reduce me to a lump of theater-seat filling jello.
The film does raise some interesting questions, but not those covered in the film...
