Sherlock Holmes has always been the smartest man in the room”¦until now. There is a new criminal mastermind at large””Professor James Moriarty (Jared Harris)””and not only is he Holmes“ intellectual equal, but his capacity for evil, coupled with a complete lack of conscience, may give him an advantage over the renowned detective.
