Another great tribute to a legendary figure in popular culture. I have always been a fan of Sherlock Holmes. Holmes is a legendary character in literature that has been depicted in movies several times. If there’s one criticism that has often been levelled against Holmes, it’s his sexism. Holmes achieved popularity during an era when women were rarely treated fairly. In this regard, I really loved the portrayal of the sleuth in “Enola Holmes”.

If you’re a fan of the legendary sleuth, this movie is definitely worth a watch. Here’s why I recommend it:
