Enola Holmes 2 is a great addition to the franchise. The first film set the tone and introduced the characters well, so this one hits the ground running, it trusts you already know the characters and moves forward confidently.
The movie has the same strengths as the first one but I found this one slightly more entertaining. Sherlock takes a more central role here, he's a more supportive brother to Enola and that dynamic works really well.
The antagonists are also stronger this time around, the General in particular just feels genuinely threatening.
The one thing I'd change is the flashbacks of her mother teaching her. I think having Sherlock fill that role instead would've made the story feel more cohesive, and would've used the dynamic between them even better.
