I agree... RDJ does such a fantastic take on Holmes, and he's a great actor- the way he acts with his body is wonderful and more subtle than Cucumber's wild flailing (the 'frightened Sherlock' scene in Hounds was way over the top).
He's athletic, watchful, mad, an asshole and loveable at the same time and you can really perceive why Watson stays with him. He's addicted. I enjoy the BBC version, but Holmes there seems to stay with Sherlock in a carer role, more than anything else. I much prefer the jolly romp through old London town, and it's far more masterful than the 'Hollywood faff' discredit people give to it rather than the over the top Moffat-thinks-he's-clever text overlays.
