Critic Reviews of "Mr. Holmes"
GrantlandJuly 22, 2015As someone who neither hungers for yet another incarnation of this character nor understands why anyone would, I watched in subdued bafflement.
Entertainment WeeklyJuly 21, 2015The 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.
New York Magazine/VultureJuly 19, 2015It'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.
NPRJuly 17, 2015Even 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.
Newark Star-LedgerJuly 17, 2015The 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.
Spokesman-Review (Washington)April 18, 2017It is McKellen whose talents are on best display. And he doesn't disappoint. As Holmes, Gandalf or Hamlet, McKellen never does.
Seanax.comJuly 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.
Antagony & EcstasyJuly 10, 2016[McKellen's] portrayal of a cantankerous, doddering old man is flawlessly done, but also somewhat generic.
Scroll.inJune 21, 2016The 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.
New Zealand HeraldMay 05, 2016The 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.
AARP Movies for GrownupsApril 11, 2016The 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.
