This won't be another movie to criticize or to praise the producer, neither the playwright. But just a pure reflection on the plot of the characters as related to humans and their natural phenomenal. Naturally, I am not as good as my girlfriend when it comes to movies, I hardly watch movies but yesterday I was at the cinema. Since, it was a time to relax and have a break from work. We (my friend and his girlfriend) decided to visit a local cinema around the town and see what I found...

Sherlock Gnomes

It was really hot when we got to the cinema and the movie was just about to start, the attendant almost spoiled the mood for us when he announced that the current movie that is showing is an animation. In my head, I was like at my age? what's the benefits or gain from this cartoon like characters... Although, I didn't want to spoil the whole atmosphere, I just had to reconfigure myself and surmount the courage to watch the movie. My plan was not to watch till the end, I would probably excuse myself since I didn't come with my girlfriend. You know most times if not all the time, 80-95% of people who visits the cinema are couple and date...

The story changed when the plot started...
Naturally, the beauty in any piece of work of literature is always to showcase the flaws of the protagonist while depicting the antagonist as the real force but nevertheless except it is a TRAGEDY. The protagonists are meant to be a conqueror at the end of each plot.
The scene ensued with a battle between a warlord, and the keeper of the gnomes in the garden with the dragon beast herself - Moriarty. Moriarty is the evil tormenting the gnomes while Sherlock is the savior. It was obvious that he defeated the evil - Moriarty from the look of things. Now, the gnomes can have their peace. Not so fast I think...

Sherlock
He is a purpose driven, a pace setter young charming man who has dedicated his life for the protection of the gnomes in the garden. He won the battle between the age long enemy of the gnomes called M. Although, despite all these achievements and great traits, there is a flaw...
He is not compassionate and he is always found of himself rather than others around him. Maybe it is good for a young man like him to choose work over love you will get to know later...

Watson
In the unfolding of events, they made us realize how bad Sherlock treats Watson maybe cos he is the secretary.
But contrary to that Watson and Sherlock were partners in crime but due to circumstances Sherlock started treating him so bad he made him is secretary. All he was looking for was an avenue to mend things with his friend but when the opportunity presented itself, he jumped on it not knowing the code of the game. Who is playing games?

Moriarty
Although, we all thought he is dead at the beginning of the plot just as you are reading this. But that is the beauty in literature - twist. She was able to survive the collapse and she saw desperation, rejection and loneliness in the eyes of Watson...
She took this advantage and prey on his weakness, she helped him to achieve his ill thoughts. And gbam the plans materialized. She's the master in the game.

Gnomeo & Juilet
This is a twist for the well accepted love story that existed between Romeo and Juilet but this time around it is between an animated character called Gnomeo. He is a crazy lover, who is ready to trade anything for his lover. Before the disaster (the entire gnomes being captured by the gargoyles) struck their home (garden), he was on the rampage to cart away a flower in a shop under lock for Juilet to express how he is feeling for her but later backfired. They were named the new leaders of the garden after the old ones.

Irene
She is the admirer of Sherlock and she was the only route to get to M and rescue the gnomes. If there is another route, sherlock would probably take the other route cos he is aware Irene won't grant his request. He chose his mission over their relationship. So, is it right for a young man to choose his job over his relationship?

Benny & Nanette
They were the comic relief along the plot line, benny was crushing secretly on Nanette which is unknown to her. But as fate will have it, they later cast a role together that prompted their feelings and got them together.

The plot could have ended on a sad note if Sherlock did not realize how bad he has treated Watson for a long time, his rejection as his partner and so on. But he made adjustment ASAP and they both teamed up to defeat Moriarty at the end. They returned all captured gnomes back to their homes and Gnomeo & Juilet became lovers as well as the gnomes leaders.
