I agree with you about the movie feeling like House (a show that is itself influenced greatly by Sherlock Holmes). The Holmes/Watson dynamic in the movie is pretty much a direct ripoff of the House/Wilson dynamic.
Your review is consistent with my expectations. If I go into it knowing it will rape the story of Holmes, will it be enjoyable?
