I’m not too fond of these movies, honestly. It’s not bad though, entertaining, but seeing it once was enough.
Sherlock takes a letter from Irene. She meets Moriarty and he is not pleased and puts something in her tea…I don’t know what because we never hear about it again…
Sherlock “forgot” about Watson’s stag party: he is there for his own reasons and ends up fighting an assassin to save a woman while John drinks and gambles, determined to have his fun.
Then John gets married: despite not being happy about it, Holmes delivers a still passed out Watson to the right place for the wedding.
Holmes meets Moriarty at his college, per invitation, and tells him that Watson is no more part of his adventures but Moriarty refuses to let him go free and safe.
When a man attacks John on the train, Mary helps. Sherlock is on the train too, disguised as a woman. He throws Mary off the train when they’re on a bridge, where Mycroft is down there to get her.
The gypsy woman Simza is in Paris, so Sherlock and John go there.
Moriarty is looking for her brother René, sp he’s in Paris too.
Mary stays at Mycroft’s place, and he walks around naked.
Moriarty is controlling a lot of people, and had them place a bomb. Sherlock thinks it’s at the opera. Moriarty is at the theatre watching, and Sherlock understands he was tricked . The bomb goes off in a hotel, and during the explosion Sebastian Moran, ex British army and now assassin, took an almost impossible shot and killed Meinhard, someone who makes weapons and whose company is no Moriarty’s.
They all move to Berlin.
While John sends a telegram to Mycroft, Sherlock is captured by Moran. Moriarty hurts him while Moran tries to shoot John. Then John saves Sherlock.
The gypsies help them escape, but René is not yet found. They outrun the bullets - heavy luck as always, the gypsies-with-no-name are there for a reason, but our protagonists manage to escape on a train. Sure, Sherlock is sort of dead, but John’s wedding gift saves him. Of course.
To Switzerland, they go to Mycroft’s place. There’s a summit, and it’s too late to cancel it. Moriarty’s plan is for René to kill someone at the summit and then it will be a war, but some doctor changed René’s face to make him look like one of the ambassadors.
John and Simza look for René and find him, stopping his attempt at murder, but René will not be their evidence against Moriarty because Moran kills him.
Moriarty tells Sherlock: “Didn’t you find it strange that the telegram you sent didn’t inspire any action to stop me? You see, hidden within the unconscious is an insatiable desire for conflict. So you’re not fighting me so much as you are the human condition. All I want to do is own the bullets and the bandages. War on an industrial scale is inevitable. They’ll do it themselves within a few years. All I have to do is wait”.
He has all the time and the money to wait, he thinks, but Sherlock took his little red notebook while he was being tortured, and right now Mary is decoding it and taking his money to give to our orphans.
Both men know that Moriarty would win in a physical fight because of Sherlock’s injured shoulder, so Sherlock takes him out with him… both are considered dead, there’s even a funeral I think, Mycroft seemed to be mourning… and yet when John receives a package with inside Mycroft’s “private and personal supply of oxygen” that we saw Sherlock toying with when they were at Mycroft’s house, John understands. Now he knows that Sherlock is alive.
