Nasrul Waton1, Dina Amelia2

Detective films have been running long in film history. It begins with the introduction of novel adjustments that are made into motion pictures. In the 21st century, Doyle's accounts have been adjusted into different types of media, for example, books, comics, TV arrangement, motion pictures, show, and others. This research conducted for two movies; the first one is “Sherlock Holmes (2009), the second one is “Sherlock Holmes: A game of Shadows (2011)”.  Set in Britain, France, and Germany in 1891 during the rule of Queen Victoria, the film manages thick issues of opposing colonialism, free enterprise, and social class. Incredible Britain's industrialization apparently is on the crescendo and its relationship with other North West nations, for example, France and Germany that is put on a strain. The writer uses qualitative research because of the data by utterance, not numeric data. Qualitative research is an introduction to a study that includes the purpose and research questions. In this research, the writer used the design of the descriptive method which a method that describes and interprets the objects with reality.
