"The length of a film should be directly related to the endurance of the human bladder." --Alfred Hitchcock
THURSDAY MOVIE CONNECTION. Every Thursday in 2012, I am connecting movies through actors.
In honor of Alfred Hitchcock's death on April 29, 1980, April is dedicated to Hitch, and all my favorites.

Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows, 2011
Director: Guy Ritchie
Stars: Robert Downey Jr, Jude Law, Noomi Rapace, Jared Harris, Stephen Fry, Kelly Reilly
Holmes (Robert Downey Jr) and Watson (Law) go up against Holmes' arch enemy, Professor Moriarty (Harris), trying to thwart an assassination attempt on an important head of state. I don't really want to say much about it because you've just got to see it, and there isn't a ton to say about it anyway, except that it's entertaining and has lots of action and Robert Downey Jr. What more do you require, really?
Stephen Fry was so wonderful as Mycroft Holmes! What a pleasant surprise!
If you're a Holmes fan, you won't be disappointed! The music is just as brilliant as in the first film. Hans Zimmer is definitely a genius.
