Review of Enola Holmes (2020) by Spike25 — 27 Sep 2020
Enola Holmes pleasantly surprised me. I was looking forward to this film and I'm glad it went well. This is an impishly playful film that will entertain both younger and older audiences. The strongest aspect of the film is undoubtedly its flawless cast.
Millie Bobby Brown, is like Enola, incredibly fun and likable. Enola is maybe an emancipated young woman, but in a good way. Henry Cavill and Sam Claflin are also as fine as are the rest of the cast. I only have one small caveat.
Perhaps in the next part, which will hopefully be created, it would be better if the creators went their own way and were just inspired by the book. The reason is that Enola, as a character, deserves a more complicated case after all, which she would have to solve and I would also not be afraid of a greater interaction between her and Sherlock.
Personally, I would appreciate it if Sherlock became a mentor for Enola. If all the movies on Netflix had the same cool vibe as Enola Holmes, that would be very nice.
