Enola Holmes, as a character, was someone I had never heard of before the 2020 Netflix film of the same name.

Unlike her older brother Sherlock . Or even the oldest child of the family (she's the youngest) Mycroft Holmes.

Yes, as in *that* Sherlock Holmes.

Anyway, I do remember watching that first film and finding it entertaining enough, even if I don't remember all the particulars (aside from a lot of 4th-wall breaking talking to the screen going on).

That's not really that much of a hindrance to this one, with the key events given a quick recap at the start of the film - I also have to say that the frequency of the 4th wall breaking seems to have been cut back a bit (thankfully).

This movie takes the (real) story of the matchstick girls strike of 1888 as its basis, with Enola investigating the disappearance of a worker from that factory in a case that, as time progresses, starts to entwine more and more with that which her brother Sherlock is working on, eventually culminating in a (very) famous antagonist coming to light ...

(even if I did call it roughly 3/4s of the way through)
