It is McKellen whose talents are on best display. And he doesn't disappoint. As Holmes, Gandalf or Hamlet, McKellen never does.
July 10, 2016
[McKellen's] portrayal of a cantankerous, doddering old man is flawlessly done, but also somewhat generic.
July 19, 2015
It's a gripping little tale, to be sure, but it's more than that. Somewhere in its tangle of timelines, false starts, and red herrings is a great truth about the unsolvable mystery of the human soul.
May 05, 2016
The story is an intricate puzzle though never even slightly difficult to follow. But in the end, it's a testament to the process of writing as a way of coming to terms with one's past, and a celebration of the redemptive power of fiction.

[An] intriguing if only semi-satisfying Sherlockian enterprise.
July 21, 2015
The mystery subplot lacks the ingenuity of the greatest Holmes stories, but McKellen excels, switching effortlessly between the reclusive beekeeper with a faltering memory and the elegant younger detective at the height of his powers.

The best of it, as in Condon's other movies, are the details of emotions, fleeting but just as quickly caught - true concern camouflaged by flashes of impatience, unutterable despair masquerading as simple grief.
July 17, 2015
Even those who've read the book can be startled by what happens in Mr. Holmes, while they're being moved by McKellen in a role he's come to late, but with his customary elegance.
July 30, 2016
... really about all those human experiences Holmes is least equipped to confront: friendship, compassion, human connection, the reasons to continue living as his sharp intellect loses its edge.
April 11, 2016
The detective ducks into a movie theater and finds himself watching a (heroic) film version of himself. His response - a snicker tinged with melancholy and disdain - speaks volumes about the futility of trying to dictate how we will be remembered.
July 22, 2015
As someone who neither hungers for yet another incarnation of this character nor understands why anyone would, I watched in subdued bafflement.
June 21, 2016
The proceedings are held together by McKellen's compelling performance and his deft switches between a spry 70-something and a precarious 93-year-old who looks back on his fame with amusement and regret.
