I'm not sure why I had never seen this film before--it is Sherlock Holmes meets Coming of Age! I enjoyed this fun imagining of what Sherlock and John could have been like when they were young teenagers. It's a quirky, whimsical, strange, and eerie escape film. Definitely a good pick for a winter night.
