I have heard the opinions of friends and they complain that the movie was too Dark and contained too much "black Magic". This is only natural for this movie to be so though because back in the time it hints to is back when people both believed and feared such things. As for the darkness, I believe it was complimenting on the story and time line. Not to mention the casting was nothing less then brilliant. Robert Downey jr (Sherlock Holmes), Jude Law (John Watson), Rachel McAdams (Irene Adler), and Mark Strong (Lord Blackwood). Also Guy Ritchie's (the director) signature is obvious in the movie, the constant flash backs to and from scenes. One scene showing one side, then flipping back to show the other side. This is Guy Ritchie's somewhat unique style, I believe he is onto something that can re-define suspense films. Sherlock Holmes is nothing less then a grand masterpiece of art and fully my favorite movie of all time.
