Enola Holmes

Enola Holmes (2020) is an exciting adventure and mystery film that reimagines the Sherlock Holmes universe through a fresh, youthful perspective. Starring Millie Bobby Brown as Enola, the story follows the brilliant and independent younger sister of the famous detective as she sets out to find her missing mother. Set in Victorian England, the movie blends action, cleverness, and female empowerment into a gripping narrative filled with unexpected twists.

When her mother (played by Helena Bonham Carter) vanishes on her birthday, Enola defies her older brothers—Sherlock (Henry Cavill) and Mycroft (Sam Claflin)—and escapes their attempts to send her to finishing school. Instead, she embarks on an adventure through London, where she not only uncovers clues about her mother’s disappearance but also becomes entangled in the case of a young lord whose life is in danger.

Directed by Harry Bradbeer and based on the novel by Nancy Springer, Enola Holmes (2020) stands out for its charismatic lead, sharp screenplay by Jack Thorne, and stunning visuals. It’s a must-watch for fans of detective stories seeking a modern twist with a strong female lead.
