Is Millie Bobby Brown's 'Enola Holmes 3' worth watching? The Netflix sequel is dividing critics.
Key Points:
- Enola Holmes 3, starring Millie Bobby Brown, is now streaming on Netflix and follows Enola as she balances wedding plans with investigating her brother Sherlock's kidnapping in Malta.
- Critics praised Brown's confident performance, the film's mature themes, well-choreographed action sequences, and strong anti-colonialist message, highlighting its growth alongside its lead actress.
- However, some reviewers found the mystery plot plodding and repetitive, describing the sequel as a generic continuation lacking the originality and complexity of earlier films.
- With a 59% critics' score on Rotten Tomatoes, Enola Holmes 3 is the lowest-rated installment in the franchise, compared to the high scores of the first two films.
- Fans of the series may still appreciate the film's charm and adventure, but it may not fully meet expectations set by its predecessors.
