Well I sure didn't recognize Richard Roxburgh as Sherlock Holmes! After seeing Rake, you realize what a wonderful actor he is.
This version is very atmospheric, though I confess I wasn't crazy about Watson and Sir Henry.
Roxburgh is very good as a more physical and less intense version of Holmes. Both Holmes and Watson were more physical than usual.
Richard E. Grant as the villain is great, especially at the end. And he has a great line to Sherlock, "I must confess I covet your skull."
Loved seeing John Nettles of "Midsomer Murders" and "Bergerac" fame as the doctor.
It's been a long time since I saw the Rathbone Hound, so I don't remember all the story specifics.
Entertaining.
