Brilliant work., October 30, 2007
Without any doubt, Jeremy Brett brilliantly captured the essence of Sherlock Holmes. The arrogance, the sly humor, the over-the-top outlandish mannersims and reactions (that enigmatic quick smile) were perfect. I love Basil Rathbone's Holmes, especially since many portraits favor him; however, Brett's performances are par excellence...there has been none better and I would imagine no one will ever be able to top it.
Not only is his Holmes perfect, Hardwicke as Watson and Charles Gray as Mycroft are also brilliant. If I could rate Brett as 10 stars, I would. If you like Sherlock Holmes and have never seen Brett's portrayal, you are in for a fantastic treat!

The feature film collection of Jeremy Brett as Sherlock Holmes is absolutely scrumtrulescent (I had to make up a word to describe it seeing as there is no word in existence to describe its perfection). Stop reading the reviews (including this one) and buy it right now. You wont regret it.

This has all five of the feature length films produced by Granada TV in a sturdy (plastic) boxed set. So you get 7 hours and 30 minutes of the best ever portrayal of Sherlock Holmes by Jeremy Brett. All the episodes are very well adapted, although occasionally slightly over-stretched and in the case of the The Last Vampyre veering off from the original story somewhat. Overall though, just like the TV series it hangs on Jeremy Bretts stunning performance as Holmes. Yes Edward Hardwicke is excellent as Watson, but its Brett who commands every scene he's in.
There are two reasons I've not given it five stars. Firstly I didn't think the DVD transfer was that great. A little bit more effort on this front would have improved things quite a bit. Secondly Jeremy Brett was quite ill when some of these feature length films were made and it shows. His portrayal is still definitive, but sadly because of illness he just doesn't quite have the same dash and spark, or look as good, as he did in the first two TV series (when he was at his absolute peak).
There is an interesting booklet with the DVD which has two pages about each film, which is quite informative and well worth reading.

I purchased this one, since I appreciated Jeremy's Brett's episodes of Sherlock Holmes. However, feature length ones did not do justice to the story of Sherlock Holmes. I would not purchase this one unless you really like this one. Too much variation to the storyline, too.

We finally went through all the sets of DVDs from all the Jeremy Brett's Holmes, and every one was a gem
