This was really colorful and fun! Great performances and set pieces. Millie Bobby Brown was super charming and reminded me of a young Keira Knightley. I could definitely see this becoming a franchise. B+

I also had a really good time with this. Millie, Cavill and Claflin were all great in it IMO and it just has an overall fun, energetic energy to it throughout. The set pieces and the bits of action we do get is really well done too, but they needed to slim down Cavill a bit more though, because he looked absolutely massive in this as Sherlock Holmes and it was really noticeable with him trying not to bust out of that tiny suit he was wearing.

This was fun and delightful thanks to Millie's performance in this. CAvill and Claflin are also great here but they have very limited screen time. The mystery in itself wasn't that interesting and the switch into second half wasn't earned but overall it ties things nicely together. I ended up re-watching it with my family as well.

Yeah this is fun and Millie is a revelation here. Light romp with beautiful visuals and set pieces. I hope they make more of these.
