I agree with almost everything that has been said on this page. The fact that Watson doesn't smoke is just absurd and I was appalled at what they had done. Another thing that struck me is that Stapleton, the evil behind the cursed hound, is portrayed as rather a clutz. I always imagined Stapleton as someone like the guy that played Sir Henry. In my opinion, they should have just stayed with the plot. The ending of the movie is also horrible and I said to myself after, "What did I just watch?" . Although this movie has a lot of negative aspects, for those who don't know "The Hound of the Baskervilles" story and don't care to know it, this movie provides suspense, mystery, and enjoyment.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6232479.post-2272910981016927772010-01-21T02:05:38.448-06:002010-01-21T02:05:38.448-06:00While the movie was sad and incompetent it was She...While the movie was sad and incompetent it was Sherlock and a mystery--something us desperate fans of mystery long for--especially since Dresden is off the air and the new Sherlock is rather fanciful as well. I do love the house in this version of the Hound. Do you know where it's located?
