Thing is though, there was quite a bit of action in a lot of Conan Doyle's original Sherlock stories. For example, Holmes has demonstrated knowledge of the martial arts for example at several key points. But, being that physical combat or action-adventure stuff was rarely emphasized, we can only imagine some of the action that he got into between the scenes within the frameworks of the stories themselves.
Hence, although it may or may not be that great an adaption, it will certainly be interesting to see the physical prowess of Sherlock Holmes emphasized in the upcoming film.
