"Jack Thorne's sometimes thin screenplay aims for a sunny-side-up appeal, but too often these cheery morals hit you over the head like a ton of bricks."
Empire Magazine"It successfully imagines a place for its heroine in Holmes' world, then convinces young viewers that Enola needn't be constrained by that world's borders."
Hollywood Reporter"Brown's acting style recalls the effusive spontaneity Keira Knightley brought to "Sense and Sensibility," shattering the straitlaced propriety of so many Jane Austen adaptations before it."
Variety"Reveals itself to be genuinely appealing for a wide audience."
IndieWire"Phew. The prevailing emotion on watching Millie Bobby Brown play Sherlock Holmes's teenage sister in this jaunty adaptation of Nancy Springer's novels is relief."
The Times"Manhandled politics aside, Enola Holmes offers plenty of whiz-bang in its mystery."
IGN"The game is pleasantly afoot yet again, with a new super-sleuth worthy of her forebears."
USA Today"On the surface, "Enola Holmes" is about a young woman in search of herself, but the film's value comes from a deeper investigation of power, familial bonds and the risks of changing a world determined to stay the same."
