The Return of Sherlock Holmes, Volume 1: The Empty House 1984:


Return of Sherlock Holmes, Vol. 1: The Empty House/The Abbey Grange ()     Dr. Watson believes Sherlock is dead after an encounter at a the Reichenbach Falls in Switzerland with Professor Moriarity.  Both of the men were thought to have fallen into the rushing water together.  After three years, Sherlock in disguise pays a visit to Dr. Watson, he’s so surprised that he faints.  They join forces to foil a plot to murder Sherlock by a former Moriarity gang member, Colonel Sebastian Moran.  
     I was hoping this would be good but I just could not keep interested.  If I never hear the name Professor Moriarity again, it will be too soon.  3* (This movie is OK)

60 min, Crime directed by Howard Baker with Jeremy Brett, Edward Hardwicke, Rosalie Williams, Eric Porter, Patrick Allen, James Bree, Colin Jeavons, Richard Bebb, Robert Addie, Naomi Buch.

Note:  Blockbuster 4 ½*, imdb 8.2 out of 10.
