Sherlock Holmes: Mare of the Night

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.

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.

This film! The depth of the writing and story telling- AMAZING! The cinematography was flawless! Out of this world continuity. Where did you find such an amazing set? The POV's were thought provoking and made scenes pop! The dialogue- who wrote this???? The sound/music, fantastic!!! Lighting and color for such a dark film helped keep the audience engaged! The makeup and artistic special effects were Hollywood quality. I expect we will see more from this director, cast and crew. The lead characters read each other and flowed so well! Sherlock was the BEST and played the role beautifully. Cannot wait to see it again!

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...

Lost in the trenches of Sherlock Holmes' nightmares and deep-rooted sense of loss and guilt is a story of a man who has saved hundreds of lives while the deaths of others he couldn't save plague his soul. With incredible music scores, dark and terrifying film finesse, and powerful performances that will draw you deep into the mind of Sherlock Holmes, you'll stay on the edge of your seat from the first minute! The cinematography in this film far exceeded my hopes, and the music scores summoned me deep into the murky mires of hellacious stories of love, loss, and sinister retribution. Don't blink.
