'Enola Holmes' review: Fans hail Millie Bobby Brown-starrer as 'fun & delightful'

Netflix has freshly released its much anticipated original film Enola Holmes which features Millie Bobby Brown in the titular role. Though the film has released today, i.e September 23, 2020, on Netflix, the review embargo for the same was lifted two weeks earlier, which is quite unusual. The review embargos for a film is only lifted weeks before its release if the makers/studios are confident in their product and want the good word of mouth acting as a promotional tactic.

The trick ended up working for Netflix as the film received positive early reviewers by the major reviewing community of Hollywood. While one hurdle for the film was gracefully passed, the film had to withstand what the general viewers had to say about it. Luckily for Netflix, netizens are also joyously indulging in the film and forwarding a positive word of mouth on social media. Check it out below -
