I love Detective Conan, that's a fact I can't lie about. So I was kinda thrilled when I saw the movie, titled Detective Conan: The Phantom of Baker Street. A little FYI for those that don't know, Detective Conan is known as Case Closed in the US.
Common to most episodes and films, it has a backdrop as to how he got shrunk down to size, so I won't bother getting to that, maybe not until I review the series itself. The plot starts off from a suicide of a young boy, then moves on to a murder, and a plot endangering kids that play a certain game. Among those are Conan, Ran, The Detective Boys, and Ai. The game played consist of a virtual brain known as Noah's Ark, who is somehow dead set on "resetting Japan", which puts in danger the 48 lives of children. As usual, Conan is on the job, but while he does so in the virtual world, his old man takes this case in real time. All the while, the game they play reenacts a certain time in London, with a certain killer and detective. The father-son team must bust their respective cases before Conan's game, and life, ends.
I was kept entertained as usual. I give this a 7.5 of 10. It was a good case, especially when this plot ties with well known fictional characters. I really hope I find the other movies, now that I saw this.
