In specific aspects (like his obsessiveness about having work, his messiness at home, his childishness about certain things, his physical prowess, his sarcasm) -- yes, I agree those particular bits are refreshingly close to his canon characterization (at least in A Study in Scarlet and The Sign of Four).

But RDJ's characterization as a whole? Not really. More Holmes-y (and certainly more enjoyable) than some of the bland, featureless, drop-dead-dull adaptations I've seen, but he has a lot of characteristics that have absolutely nothing to do with canon Holmes, or are even directly opposed to canon Holmes. Which is better than being bland, but still definitely not the closest-to-canon adaptation.
