Yes! Fuck yes!! This is so up my alley!
Sherlock Holmes is investigating a series of bombings. John Watson is getting married. A Romani fortune teller named Sim is looking for her brother. Professor James Moriarty is a jerk. Mycroft Holmes is entertaining.
Things explode a lot, Robert Downey Jr. is attractive, the dialogue is quickly paced, there are more explosions, a lot of well-choreographed fight sequences, more action and explosions, some more dialogue, Robert Downey Jr. continues to be attractive, I spend an entire scene wanting to yell at the characters to hurry up and do what I already know they're going to do, the plot twists about, Stephen Fry is hilarious, more explosions, more explosions, dialogue and the end.
Fucking fantastic.
End of line.

What a wonderful, concise review. I certainly want to see this movie. (now, that sentence was not 'made of sarcasm,' though i realize it could come off sounding that way.)
Thanks! The movie's a blast; I highly recommend it. (And I didn't think that sentence was made of sarcasm at all, but thank you for verifying it wasn't.)
