Guy Ritchie is an outstanding British director, screenwriter and producer, known for his unique style, including dynamic plots, memorable characters and intense dialogues. His works such as "Cards, Money, Two Barrels" and "Big Jackpot" became iconic and had a huge impact on modern cinema. Among his high—profile successes is the adaptation of the legendary character Sherlock Holmes, where Richie gave the classic story a new energetic look, filled with action and a modern storytelling style.

On the set of the movie "Sherlock Holmes," Guy Ritchie decided to pay special attention to the believability of action scenes. To do this, he recruited professional fighters who advised the actors and staged fighting scenes in the style of bartitsu, a popular martial art in the era of Victorian England. This added historical authenticity to the film and made Holmes even more convincing as a master of not only deduction, but also physical confrontation.
