To celebrate the release of Mr Holmes (rated PG) in cinemas July 23, NZME is giving away 10 double passes.
Sir Ian McKellen stars as an aged, retired Sherlock Holmes looking back on his life and legacy, and grapples with an unsolved case involving a beautiful woman.
In 1947, Sherlock Holmes (McKellen), long-retired, lives in a sleepy Sussex village with his housekeeper and her amateur-sleuthing son. But far from living out a peaceful retirement, he is haunted by an unsolved case from fifty years ago. He remembers only fragments: a confrontation with an angry husband, a secret bond with his beautiful but unstable wife. With his legendary mental powers on the wane, and without his old sidekick Watson, Holmes is faced with the toughest case of his life - a case that might finally reveal to him the mysteries of the human heart. Based on the novel by Mitch Cullin, "A Slight Trick Of The Mind".

"McKellen is predictably superb as Holmes"
"Linney, in her third teaming with Conlon,, does beautifully understated work"
"The filmmaking itself is among Condon's most elegant"
Scott Foundas, Variety
"The film belongs un equivocally to McKellen... It's a wily performance full of understate wit and subdued irascibility, devoid of sentimentality and yet quietly moving."
David Rooney, The Hollywood Reporter
"There's nothing about the film that Conan Doyle fans, McKellen fans, Linney fans and anyone partial to a lilting Carter Burwell score won't relish"
Tim Robey, Daily Telegraph (UK)
"What makes it progressively more moving is a complex, multi-layered script and the performance from Sir Ian"
Geoffrey McNab, Independent
"The indirect narrative is interesting and McKellen stylishly inhabits the part both in extreme old age and earlier, in Holme's sleek professional pomp."
Peter Bradshaw, Guardian
"Mr. Holmes is refreshing ... what sets it apart from mots contemporary takes on [Conan Doyle's] material is its undercurrent of warmth and humanity."
Nicholas Barber, BBC.com
