PRODUCTION REVIEW:
Blame it to this film why Robert Downey Jr. dropped out from the film Cowboys and Aliens (I guess so). Well, due to the success of the first film, Warner Bros. are too excited to create a sequel so plans are fast track and walla!!! They are now filming this sequel. Rumors have leaked that this sequel will have no continuity from the previous film. But that is alright since there are lots of Sherlock Holmes adventures on books, so film maker can choose one or two for this film. And they did choose the best case Sherlock Holmes had encountered. They are doing a film where Sherlock Holmes fight against Professor Moriarty who is also as brilliant as Holmes. So do expect that this film will be a battle between brilliant minds as they try to outsmart one another

NEWS & UPDATES:
After the success of the first Sherlock Holmes, a sequel was fast tracked by Warner Bros. with director Guy Ritchie dropping out of an adaptation of Lobo and Robert Downey, Jr. leaving Cowboys & Aliens. It was unclear if Rachel McAdams would appear in the film. McAdams said, "If I do, it won't be a very big thing. It's not a lead part". On February 4, 2011, Warner Bros. confirmed to Entertainment Weekly that McAdams would have a cameo.
The film is reported to be influenced by Conan Doyle's The Final Problem While the film takes place a scant few months after the events of the first film, Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows is intended to be a stand-alone film that doesn't require knowledge of the previous film.
In October 2010, Robert Downey, Jr. and Jude Law were seen rehearsing a fight scene as shooting took place in Richmond Park, south-west London. A large green screen was erected at Didcot Railway Centre in October 2010 and a large action scene was filmed there in Mid-November. In late November, a scene was filmed at Victoria Bridge, which is part of the Severn Valley Railway. In January 2011 scenes were also filmed at Hampton Court Palace.
Early February 2011, principal photography moved for 2 days to Strasbourg, France. Shooting took place on, around and inside the Strasbourg Cathedral. The scene is said to be the opening scene of the movie, as it will cover an assassination/bombing in a German speaking town. The film is scheduled to be released December 16, 2011.
