Trailer was great. Unfortunately the movie was the opposite. Very chaotic narrative that killed an interest movie idea.

After her mother (Helena Bonham Carter) disappears, Enola sets out to London to find her, meeting a young aristocrat along the way. The opening sequences offer a jaunty modern approach to the detective story, but things do slow down as the plot and the burgeoning romance develops. Still, the pleasant performances and lively attitude make for a mildly entertaining diversion.… Expand

Hollywood is destroying itself. Good acting cannot overcome horribly predictable and one dimensional writing. Yet another great cast wasted on a tale of social justice. Enola Holmes is just another Mary Sue main character surrounded by one dimensional simple minded and or oafish males who she saves repeatedly from themselves. Such a missed opportunity to have a fresh tale of the younger sister of the famous Sherlock Holmes solving cases together with her older brother. Matching their wits against the cunning Professor Moriarty.… Expand

This movie is all fluff and no substance made for a dumb audience. The acting is okay but the story is mostly uninteresting and predictable. Unfunny with forced romance that felt unnatural. Maybe children will like it.

This movie is great to play at retirement homes because the main character will talk to them directly the whole movie! There’s not enough trans POC in it, I thought by now Netflix would’ve learned it’s lesson. Soundtrack is ok!

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I don't enjoy reviews that start with 'Woke' or 'SJW' ... but I'm sorry, it's a completely-over-the-top SJW/Woke bit of trash. Often they get past the heavy handed things in the first few scenes and get one with the story ... but this film is trope after trope after trope. The 'free thinking mother' who let her kid do as she pleased, and the 'evil governess' forcing Elona into archaic clothing. Any reasonable reading of the situation would indicate that the Holmes mother is basically a lazy, entitled but semi literate redneck who trashes her own home, defrauds her family while her child runs feral. Just because a child 'has read books' does not mean they are socailized or learned. I was waiting for the story to start, it never did. This is a Woke/SJW ridiculous Disney after-school special desinged to teach children a completely narrow set of values, partly based on ignorance. What happened to storytelling?… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. First of all this is based on a 2006 book, which led to a long running book series that ran from 2006 to 2010, so contrary to what people are claiming this isn't a story made up by "woke" Hollywood.

I quite enjoyed this film. It was charming with a great cast, Henry Cavill was a pretty good incarnation of the great detective himself, Millie Bobby Brown was quite good in the title role. The film does have its issues like the 4th wall breaking by Enola felt intrusive at times, I get the director was trying to find a witty way around the fact the books are in first person but I don't think it was needed, other than that and some issues, I quite liked the film and would like to see the other 5 books in the Enola Holmes series adapted.… Expand

This film hasOh dear..Firstly, did we really need yet another Sherlock Holmes story? No. The Guy Ritchie films were fun, the Mark Gatiss series was very good and Johnny Lee Miller and Lucy Liu as Holmes and Watson in Elementary were perfect. This film has none of the qualities that made all those other productions great. The script is bad, the story is shallow and empty and quite frankly i think the whole thing is an insult to the original writings of Conan Doyle and to the much loved characters he created. One thing this does show is how poor an actor Millie Bobby Brown is. I thought she was pretty wooden and bad in Stranger Things, but i put that partly down to the way she was written, but she is truly awful in this too. She is just not a good actor. And this is not only a bad film, but as i said before, and insult to the original stories. A lot of clearly fake two line 10 out of 10 reviews with no detail at all on here again too.… Expand

It's also a very sad piece of work that can not help throwing in modern politics(which won't age well), ignoring things like zeitgeist and the real issue back then between the poor and the rich (which still is).

I wouldn't mind a strong female character in a deep well thought out story. Enough games and movies have proven that such things are easy to be expected 'with good writers', those are sadly not found here and only feed the real sexists found on the far right 'and' far left.… Expand

JustsomeraterSep 24, 2020

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Honestly i just watched because of Millie Bobby Brown(great actress and did great) but i was disappointed at the feminist forced view that was shoved so many times. Not to mention some bad plot points in the end with the old knight steal armour holding the double barrell shotgun. This is the kind of movie writing that is just to please a certain audience without much work.

Even though the storyline wasn’t the best, the unrealism at a considerable number of times, repetitive exaggerated forced view points and all of that i enjoyed Millies acting none the less. Her skills are getting better and could have gone way better if she had been less time being rude and cold blooded and more in the why. We never saw much out of the thoughts of Enola about the bombs that definitely would kill a number of people. Its sad that it was rushed to the man bad woman good cliche movie. For me it was sadly forgettable and if not for the screenshots from Millie’ fans probably this movie won’t be remembered in a few weeks

The one thing that made me believe this was a 5/10 to a 2/10 was definitely the breaking 4th wall so badly and in a awkward way. After the moments where i was getting tired of the polarisation of good and bad most of the times the writers decided to just pull again the breaking of the 4th wall in a badly written way just to take a good laugh without much effort into it. And what about the water torture scene where Enola faked being dead? Had me a good laugh until i realised they were serious that she could pull that off.

Kind of remids me of Rey from The force awakens but with a little small background. More of a Mary sue than anything

And one more thing. Why wasn’t Henry more involved instead of being such a ignored character? Could have been much more. It had me there in the first act but at the second act i was more interested in anything but the movie.

Resuming: its another feminist movie with the same theme as all others without much diference, except it has Henry Calvin as a not so convincing Sherlock Holmes and Millie bobby brown with her gold but strick performance per say.… Expand

Because nobody cares about some nameless girl detective and she needed the credibility of the original. They did this in the Alienist too; beefed up a female character to be woke.
