Enola Holmes Makes The Top Ten

This movie follows a 16-year-old teenager named Enola Holmes and her quest to find her mother after she disappears. If the name Enola Holmes sounds familiar, it’s because it is. Enola is the younger sister of the famous detective Sherlock Holmes, and the not so famous Mycroft Holmes. 

The mystery/adventure film takes place in 19th century England when a mother (Eudoria) gives birth to a beautiful baby girl and names her Enola, which when arranged backwards, spells ‘Alone’. Her name is strange considering the fact the child is never actually left alone. Eudoria teaches Enola about reading, science, and sports. She focuses more on the martial arts, and jiu-jitsu. She spends her days instilling in Enola that she can do whatever she wants and be whoever she wants. 

16 years later when Eudoria is missing on Enola’s birthday, this smart, fearless and self-reliant teen goes searching for her missing mother, outsmarting her witty detective brother, all while trying to stay alive and protecting the runaway Lord Tewksbury, who she meets along the way.

Overall, Enola Holmes was rated 91% on “Rotten Tomatoes” for being a great adventure, crime and mystery movie for all audiences to indulge in.
