A Case Of Evil (in which REG plays Mycroft Holmes – Sherlock’s older, reclusive brother) has been reviewed in this week’s TV Guide (US). It’s in the “Hits and Misses” of the week and got a 9/10 (an unusually high score for this columnist). The reviewer cites the excellent acting, although REG is not specifically mentioned. This film looks like another excellent REG film. It was also reviewed (BTW) in the current Sherlock magazine, a British publication. The reviewer also liked the film a great deal and mentioned also The Hound Of The Baskervilles (in which REG plays Stapleton). The opening paragraph of the 2-page article talks about both forthcoming films saying the only thing in common is that the “both star Holmes veteran Richard E Grant”

The author noted REG’s portrayal of Mycroft very positively – despite the physical disparity between what’s in print and on the screen (Mycroft is a large, lazy man – albeit brilliant in print).
