With much of the original, not just the interpretations of Millie Bobby Brown Y Henry Cavill, Enola Holmes 2 once again it offers entertainment, perhaps at an irregular pace, but all who enter Netflix enjoyed the first, they will surely be thrilled with the actress strange things.

Because Enola Holmes 2 demonstrates, once again, all the skills of Sherlock Holmes’ younger sister in solving mysteries and disappearances. But it’s also true that Jack Thorne’s script doesn’t leave much room for viewers to find out for themselves or follow the occasional clue.

Enola discovers strands or just a hair where the camera had never been before.

It’s just that everything is more or less prepared to admire Enola (and Sherlock, her brother and legal guardian) rather than to find out, for example, what happened to Sarah, when her little sister Bess arrives at Enola’s office to entrust her with the his case.

Enola is not a character created by Arthur Conan Doyle, as Sherlock was, but the protagonist imagined by the writer Nancy Springer and who already appears in a series of six books.

Yes, approx Enola Holmes He’s already going for a movie franchise or saga.

And again Enola finds himself in the middle of a social struggle with political implications. Among other battles he must fight, such as with his feelings towards Lord Tewkesbury (Louis Partridge), and trying to make his way as a detective, without resorting to asking his older brother for help.

And there are so many things happening on screen that everyone from their living room can decide which of all the subplots is most appealing to them.

The one in the Sarah case in question is taken from a real strike in a match factory in London in the late 19th century. The film shifts from a cobblestone area and Victorian buildings to a very different reality when the protagonist visits the place where Sarah lived with Bess.

Corruption and deaths

The same will happen when, between gags and glances at Enola’s camera, we discover a network of corruption and deaths, in which typhus has little to do with it.

However, the film works best when the Holmes brothers meet, or Enola remembers her mother’s teachings. There is chemistry between these characters, or rather between their interpreters, and this helps.

And if Enola also follows her mother Eudoria’s (Helena Bonham Carter) advice to “pull any loose ends” in her investigation, well, she’s likely to solve the case. “Without power, we women have to rely on our wits,” says a character named Mira Toy.

I leave it to Sherlock Holmes fans who want to see the film.

Enola will have enough time to learn to dance, fall in love and make friends with her brother. And there are some good supporting characters too, like Superintendent Grail that David Thewlis composes, albeit a little over the wire.

Harry Bradbeer has had more work as a series director than a film. And the director of almost every episode of Lots of fleas returns, as in the series with Phoebe Waller-Bridge, to break through the fourth wall. The effect, which Bradbeer had already used in the first Enola Holmeswas most impressive in the series, but Millie Bobby Brown is so kind that all is forgiven.

And wait to see the end, which comes with a surprise. Elementary.
