Sherlock Holmes: Mare of the Night

What a great movie, it makes you wanting more. Great acting, videography and score music. They really captured that era in time. Well put together, loved everything about it. We will watch again and again. Can't wait for more to come. Director CJ Goodwyn out did himself, this movie deserves more showings everywhere for more people to watch. I highly recommend this movie, it does not disappoint. Thank you for putting a great film out for everyone to enjoy. I look forward in what's to come in the future with this film. Again thank you to all the cast and crew for putting in their hard work into this film. This a must watch!

Must see film to see a shattered hero at the end of his era and the past that haunts him. Creative writing and a super cool villain that you will remember! Happy to encourage family and friends to see this work of art! Congratulations to the cast and crew for their contribution to this film. Small independent films need everyone's support now more than ever so do what you can to support the industry and all the talent that works so hard to create art that they are obviously passionate about. This film will leave you thinking about other iconic heroes and what their story would be if they were real people.

Maybe you're one of the many mainstream American movie goers and thus might be skittish or apprehensive about seeing independent films.

Or, maybe you only see Hollywood blockbusters until a friend drags you to see an Indie film.

I myself am usually skeptical about Indie films as they often lack in proper sound, colorization, and editing. However this film, by the remarkably talented writer-director CJ Goodwyn, displayed quality sound, excellent colorization & tone (perfectly set for this dark and different psycho thriller) and first rate editing (think of the late Sally Menke of Tarantino's films).

Thank goodness! Or should I say thank Goodwyn?

From the intense and moving monologues of the Sherlock Holmes character (actor Les Best), to the perfectly timed musical score, I have to admit I was captivated... and I mean edge of the seat captivated throughout most of 'Mare of the Night'.

Dang! I am truly impressed by what comes out of the south Texas film industry.

EASY FOR ME TO RECOMMEND THIS FILM!

CJ Goodwyn has hit his stride! His best movie to date! No matter how much you love or hate Sherlock Holmes, this is a whole new take on the classic character, a dark and thrilling vision. The acting, cinematography, and score have made this a must see. It's interesting to dive this deep into the psyche of a detective who couldn't win them all, and the depths his mind could go to. Especially when depression and addiction add to the madness. Les Best is haunting. Michelle Masker, Taylor Ann King, Benjamin Regan, Jon Rich, all the cast did a great job in bringing us to the past and making it believable. Independent cinema is still the best movie making.

Definitely, and eye opening experience into the Psychological world of Sherlock Holmes. Enjoyed every suspenseful scene. Mr. Best was at his finest. Bravo work to cast and crew that made this film. Can't wait for Chapter 2. Seriously!! This movie was so beautifully done. I TRULY feel this is nothing short of a cinematic masterpiece-a breathtaking exploration of time, memory, and the human experience. This film ingeniously intertwines various timeframes, weaving together lives and emotions in a way that feels profoundly nostalgic and universally relatable. It's a deeply sentimental journey that mirrors our own experiences, drawing parallels to the joys, struggles, and fleeting moments that define us all. Bravo work C. J. You done it again...
