8/10
Better than the First ...

Disappointing with the fan ratings. 6.8? Much better than that.

Really enjoyable. Loved it. But one, they make Sherlock a bit too inept rather than elevating Enola to the same level. A sign of less imaginative spy/detective writing. Just need some more tricks up their sleeve. The general plot, however, was great and the dialog was well written. The writers just need to show a bit more ingenuity in both Sherlock and Enola. Not that they were bad. They had their moments. Still not quite up to snuff for a Holmes story.

A little bit of a cheesy scene in the factory. Needed a bit more potency but otherwise a very good ending. And great to incorporate real history.

All that said, generally a very enjoyable and wonderful movie. We need more of these. Just need more as far as the genius of the Holmes' family characters. Hope they do another. These are great films that our culture needs in an era of uncertainty and despicable evil.
