Butter L I immediately went for Dash-2 after watching the first iteration. Millie Bobby Brown is such a great actor - - a delight. This was well-written and beautifully acted and appointed. Plus Henry Cavill as the hot frosting on a solid theatrical cake...yummmm... If you enjoy period dramas, you will love this fun and lighthearted version! Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 12/15/24 Full Review Jay W This movie is not for me. I do not care for 4th wall breaking protagonists. Unless it is especially funny or charming, a 4th wall break simply takes me out of the story and ruins my emersion. I also don't care for movies that begin with action in the middle of the movie, only to freeze frame and cut back to the real beginning of the story. Unless the return to that scene gets completely recontextualized on the repeat, it just seems like a lazy way to start off with a hook. I likewise don't like it when the reveal of the story is obvious. I don't like it when the criminal behind it is introduced in such a way that they are clearly the culprit. I would say that this is a good mystery for real little kids, but the movie rocks a PG-13 rating, so the children that would be fooled are not watching the movie. I don't like it when supposedly smart characters make such stupid decisions when it comes to things that should be common sense. For example, the way the main character acts a crime scene. I don't like when characters I'm supposed to be rooting for are more unlikable than the villains. I don't like when a movie feels like it is preaching to me, they are a bit on the nose with how poorly women were treated back in those days. It communicates a fine message, but they hammer it in a little too much. So yes, there is a LOT that I don't like in this movie. But on the positive side, the mystery isn't overly convoluted. One action leads to the next quite well. The movie doesn't waste too much of the audience's time, it is well paced. I like most of the main characters, it is just some of the side characters that get on my nerves. Cavil and Brown have good chemistry together and have more screen time together than the previous. And the final reveal isn't utter nonsense. I guess I am just a big fan of the Sherlock Holmes character, and am very particular about his portrayal. This one isn't awful, but if you're looking for a definitive Holmes mystery adventure, then this is just a red herring. Rated 2/5 Stars •  Rated 2 out of 5 stars 12/02/24 Full Review Jacob B A superior sequel to the first film, Enola Holmes 2 builds upon its predecessor's strengths and improves upon its shortcomings with a more compelling story, additional screen time for Henry Cavill's Sherlock without hogging the spotlight from the titular character, a more memorable villain and better blending of mystery, humour and suspense making for a fun Netflix adventure that's sure to leave you looking forward to a third film once Millie Bobby Brown finishes Stranger Things 5.
