2.5/4
The Malta setting and the movie’s “merry mess” make for a fine backdrop for Brown’s continuing evolution as a charming big, or small, screen presence. Go to Full Review

8/10
For fans, this is an exciting continuation, while newcomers will find it an entertaining mystery that stands confidently on its own. The future of the "Enola Holmes" franchise has never looked brighter. Go to Full Review

3.5/5
The key cast have ... established a refreshing chemistry that should carry Ms Holmes comfortably through another few films. Go to Full Review

Continues the franchise's tradition of being an acceptable way to pass a couple of hours. [Full review in Spanish] Go to Full Review

Has a rather dull plot and is too busy trying to disguise the fact with all sorts of visual gimmicks. Go to Full Review

Mark R @OtterSpace4Good 23 hrs ago Too woke! Moriarty, a black woman. Talk of the Holmes family having privilege. The wedding officiated by a woman and of no religious ordination ... really? Back in that time? And she does not use the term bride nor wife. Rather husband and woman, partners not spouses, and on and on. Really insufferable. As another said, Millie constantly broke the 4th wall waaay too much. It was cute in small amounts in the previous films. Overdone here. See more Robert P @Superbad 6 days ago Enola Holmes 3 = a 2.5 star movie (it's Nothing like Enola Holmes 1 and 2) See more Mondo C @Kangaray Sep 23, 2026 Not as good as the other two. Colonial political correctness gone mad! It was painful. See more Jay W @RT52162311 Sep 23, 2026 I don't know what I was expecting. I didn't like the previous two Enola Holmes films, what made me think this one was going to be different? I guess I am just a sucker for the idea of a cozy Sherlock Holmes style mystery. But this one falls short yet again. The movie manages to be both overly complicated and too predictable. And the characters, who are supposed to be smart, make some of the dumbest decisions. See more Mackenzie D @RT28374707 Sep 22, 2026 Millie seemed self conscious of the camera and her acting was wooden. Maybe partly due to work done, but her movements and expressions didn’t feel genuine. The plot was predictable and it didn’t have the same magic as the first two. The fight scenes felt contrived. While I’ve seen the first two twice and enjoyed them as much, I wouldn't watch the 3rd again. See more Rowan Dorian D @RT19431309 Sep 22, 2026 [POSSIBLE, BUT BRIEF SPOILERS] Listen, I've always loved the Enola Holmes movies, even if they weren't particularly faithful to the Nancy Springer books. This movie however.... eesh. The pacing was atrocious. It was too fast, and most of the scenes too weren't given enough emotional weight to them. The plot was MUDDLED. They brushed over certain plot points, didn't do enough research on other points (ie, the British occupation of Malta was gone into in depth) , and while it really could have been a good story.... it just wasn't done as well as the first two. It felt like they were trying to turn a romance story into a detective movie by throwing a bunch of tropes in there without any real character growth or analysis. I reallyyyyyy wanted to like it but it just wasn't good. See more Read all reviews
