Hellen I like the storyline of this show,it attract me so much

Konterr Brilliant and touching

Abbigail Bush what a terribly boring film. I'm sorry but this is absolutely not deserving of best picture and will be forgotten quickly. Entertaining and engaging cinema? No. Nothing performances with flat faces and mistaking silence for subtlety.

Deanna There are moments in this movie where the great movie it could've been peek out... They're fleeting, here, but they're worth savoring, and they happen often enough to make it worth your while.

lotsafun The four Sherlock Holmes movies by Hallmark are just good fun versions for kids. Don't even try to take 'em seriously folks. Don't expect them to be artistic masterpieces based on literary classics. These TV movies were made for a family audience and there's plenty of comedy for kids in these things. Frewer's Holmes must be seen to be believed! He's a hoot! He's the most eccentric Holmes EVER! Kids will love this guy! Kenneth Welsh is much more traditional in his role and he makes a very fine Watson. These Frewer Holmes flicks are sure to entertain the kids and will hopefully encourage them to read more about The Master Detective. They certainly wont get bored watching any of these with the ultra-intense and comedic Frewer on the screen.

Kateina_King The Sign of the Four was wonderfully filmed and excellently acted. Matthew Frewer has a new, fresh take on Holmes that is different from Jermey Bret's serious almost depressed character of Holmes. Frewer's Holmes knows he's smart and has a bit of fun with it. He makes jokes about other characters without them even knowing about it and he has a fun sense of "Yes I know I'm brilliant .... I'm Sherlock Holmes" to his acting. The character of Holmes is kept true to the original stories and the film has you intrigued with this Holmes character until the credits role. wonderful I would recommend the series to any one who enjoys Sherlock Holmes. Superb.

MichaelJohnMartin Myself,being a huge fan of vintage Detective Stories, namely Agatha Christies "Poirot",immaculately played by David Suchet, and of the detective in question here Sherlock Holmes,previously played with particular vim and vigour by Basil Rathbone,and later (albeit with perhaps a smidgen too much eccentricity) by the effervescent Jeremy Brett.Matt Frewers Holmes is quite frankly....a shambles.Although to be fair his fellow cast members do little to help the film to get off its knees.Particularly appalling were the two "actors",playing Miss Morstan and Inspector Jones,Sophie Lorain and Michel Perron respectively.I can say in all honesty,that throughout the entire length of this preposterous production that these two actors had about them an air of mystique,chiefly for the reason that I could'nt make head nor tail of their accents!!Inspector Jones, 'I presume' was supposed to be Scottish,well,his Scottish accent was risible,and made Mel Gibson's in Braveheart sound like an absolute triumph!!As for Miss Morstan,there were elements of French,English and American accents in her voice,and it seemed to fluctuate with each sentence,appalling.As for Holmes,the phrase "Camp as Christmas" would sum it up to a tee,Frewer is quite simply the worst Holmes ever to grace celluloid, whomever commissioned this dreadful film(and I see from his biog on this very website that a series of these films have been made with him cast as Holmes)should not have the distinction of working in film or television ever again.My rating * out of *****.And that is simply for the locations,which were quite authentic looking of that time I suppose.

KatharineFanatic Sherlock Holmes is idling in his London flat once again in this masterful new adventure based on the classic part of the Canon "The Sign of Four." This time with Matt Frewer as the languid and yet surprisingly agile Sherlock Holmes, the film is well-placed, excellently-filmed, and any true Sherlockian will enjoy it. A few liberties have been taken from the original script, but are lost in the excellent dialogue and London fog as they follow the notorious murderer, Jonathan Small, and his strange and unearthly savage to uncover a twisting tale of deception, secrets, lies, betrayal, and murder.Overall, the film's a lot of fun. It gives a new angle to Sherlock Holmes - a comical one, while never overdoing Holmes' brilliance. A friend had never been "interested" in Holmes before now - she liked Frewer's serious and yet proud adaptation. The costuming is standard fare - that of the older version, with Ian Richardson as Holmes, was better done as far as the heroine's wardrobe - and it has enough excitement to keep you entertained, while adding a touch of romance and strain between Watson and Holmes; the result being Holmes' famed speech on the "dangers of women."An excellent second installment in the series of four by Hallmark Entertainment. I hope the rest of the miniseries is as eventful and imaginative as this one.
