Fresh off the triumph of solving her first case, Enola Holmes (Millie Bobby Brown) follows in the footsteps of her famous brother, Sherlock (Henry Cavill), and opens her own agency -- only to find that life as a female detective-for-hire isn't as easy as it seems. Resigned to accepting the cold realities of adulthood, she is about to close shop when a penniless matchstick girl offers Enola her first official job: to find her missing sister. But this case proves to be far more puzzling than expected, as Enola is thrown into a dangerous new world -- from London's sinister factories and colorful music halls, to the highest echelons of society and 221B Baker Street itself. As the sparks of a deadly conspiracy ignite, Enola must call upon the help of friends -- and Sherlock himself -- to unravel her mystery. The game, it seems, has found its feet again!

What to Know

Critics Consensus

Building on its predecessor with boisterously entertaining flair, Enola Holmes 2 solves the mystery of how to make a satisfying sequel -- and makes it look positively elementary.

Audience Says

This franchise still definitely isn't for Sherlock purists, but Enola Holmes 2 is an entertaining follow-up to the original.

Chloe S I wish I could give this movie a six out of five!!! It is my new favourite movie:) Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 08/09/24 Full Review andrea c Non si può certo dire che il film sia sgradevole o mal riuscito; semplicemente va ad accantonare l'idea del giallo ritmato alla ricerca di indizi per dare ampio spazio all'azione.La trama entra troppo presto nel vivo, dopo un minuscolo preludio e la sceneggiatura ha una struttura troppo simile al primo film; due casi separati seguiti dai fratelli che si uniscono per un finale in sintonia a suon di sparatorie e combattimenti.Ma ciò che più infastidisce è l'ennesimo stupido tentativo di politically correct in cui il famigerato James Moriarty diventa una donna di colore di mezza età.Non c'è senso e non c'è nemmeno una spiegazione; fatto assolutamente ridicolo. Rated 2.5/5 Stars • Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 08/06/24 Full Review Laze T I enjoyed it more then the first one but not enough to give it a 4 stars but still good Rated 3.5/5 Stars • Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 08/06/24 Full Review Tom R I loved the cast and crew but number 2 was somehow missing the charm and the catch me if you can vibe that number 1 had. Still a great experience tho! Rated 2.5/5 Stars • Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 06/16/24 Full Review Guilherme L Todos os elogios que rasguei na crítica anterior mantêm-se, nomeadamente sobre a atuação, os personagens, o enredo, as paisagens, as características, a exatidão dos acontecimentos… A complexidade da obra torna-se ainda mais complexa e acho que é isso que lhe trás o charme. Por outro lado, essa mesma complexidade acrescida também a torna um pouco cansativa e pesada, por esse motivo, retirei 0,5 pontos. Rated 4/5 Stars • Rated 4 out of 5 stars 06/09/24 Full Review Jay M Solid cast and plausible story line that was too long and somehow just didn’t draw one in. Rated 2/5 Stars • Rated 2 out of 5 stars 05/19/24 Full Review Read all reviews
