Netflix's Enola Holmes 3 Stars Millie Bobby Brown in Malta Setting
Netflix released *Enola Holmes 3*, the third film in its Enola Holmes series. Millie Bobby Brown returns as the titular sister‑detective, joined by Henry Cavill as Sherlock, Louis Partridge as Tewkesbury, and veteran actors such as Helena Bonham Carter. The story moves from crowded London streets to the sun‑kissed coast of early‑19th‑century Malta, where Enola must piece together clues after Sherlock is kidnapped by a malevolent antagonist and used to sabotage her wedding day. The plot unfolds around a broader conspiracy that implicates several prominent members of the British Empire.
Critics note that the film lacks the high‑octane action of Guy Ritchie’s Sherlock adaptations and the razor‑sharp mystery of the Benedict Cumberbatch series, describing it as a family‑friendly adventure that is at times predictable and visually straightforward. However, Brown’s performance is praised for growing charisma and confidence, and the Malta setting provides vivid festival scenes with colorful costumes. Overall, the sequel offers a safe, entertaining mystery aimed at a broad audience.
