Witty, ..kinda predictable but the production values were very good. Victorian London was believable. .It reminded me of Anne of Green Gables ..in a good way. It is the kind of film the British do well. Engaging and enjoyable.
Reviews like this are useful. Based on the title, the topic, a young teenager, etc. i wouldn't consider giving this picture a look. Just not my interest. But after reading the review, I will give a look. I'm glad it is a movie as opposed to a multi-part series.

Enjoyed it apart from Mycroft - Sherlock was fine but with Mycroft they took more liberties - I think because knowning their mother (as she did) meant it was realistic she could unravel this particular puzzle faster than a single brother - but had Mycroft had been demonstrated to be the 'smarter' brother - it would have been wholly unrealistic that she could outwit the two brothers working together.
me and my partner really enjoyed this. MBB is so watchable and we thought Henry Cavill was a suitable Sherlock. The production was great and I (My Mrs doesn't care about such things) thought the image was fantastic - bold colours and beautifully detailed in DV.
MBB is such a wonderful actress and sweet person but I sincerely pray that she doesn’t go the wild day ala Drew Barrymore and skip the whole sex and drugs scene... enjoy her teenage years, whilst continuing to give us more of such delightful performances
Agree - she reminds me a bit of a young Natalie Portman - I watched Leon again last week for the first time in years - Such a good movie!
The whole family enjoyed Enola Holmes - it's definitely very family friendly movie but enjoyable nonetheless.
Sweet and enjoyable if you can get past the painfully OTT feminism injected into almost every scene or line of dialogue. MBB is great and I enjoyed the fourth wall breaking. She has a bright future, but otherwise its fairly insipid stuff and I'm astonished at its overpraise. Actually I'm not. This is exactly the kind of safe, conformist, on-script fare that people lap up these days.
Thankfully I'm not so easily triggered that I spend my time counting every occurrence of a temporally anomalous black actor nor every hint that a woman might be equal to or better than a man in a given situation. Each to their own, if course, but I would rather judge a movie by any number of criteria than allowing a narrow focus on "wokeness" to spoil my enjoyment.
