Audience Reviews for Sherlock Holmes: The Hound of the Baskervilles

An honest retelling of this story which has been filmed many times and certainly one that Arthur Conan Doyle may have approved of. Unfortunately Ian Richardson, for all his acting talents, is woefully miscast as the great detective.
