Yunno sometimes thereās really good movie adaptations like for PHM but rare is one that angers me more then the Enola Holmes one. āWait thereās a book?ā I KNOW. Donāt get me wrong objectively it is a great movie and while watching it Im like Yeah Ok, and by god I didnāt know I needed a Milly Bobby Brown Enola, but for Godās sake wtf. I read the series ages ago but it still strikes me as one of the best ones Iāve ever read, and a big part is the feminist themes. Yes the movie is feminist, but compared to the book? Amateurs. In the book the guy sheās searching for is like a 14 year old guy fucking annoying, she saves him and goes on with her life. Then, I see the movie, and MY GIRL FUCKING FALLS IN LOVE???? Then I learn in the next movie it looks like SHEāS GETTING MARRIED??????? Enola is like the modern amazon she wants to run from her brothers find her mom and prove sheās smarter than them. Ho God and they make her be saved by Sherlock???? Please she saved him (i think thatās movie twoās plot). Ho and donāt get me going on wtf is her mother doing there that would spoil stuff. BUT WHY IS SHE HERE SHES SUPPOSED TO BE ALONE ALONE ALONE ALONE ITS IN HER NAME. She doesnāt need her motherās approval. She doesnāt need her brotherās help. SHE DOESNāT NEED. A. MAN.
Anyway, great movie, terrible movie adaptation, fabulous incredible serie, nothing makes me aggressive like this I am taking it slightly seriously, but I hate that I try to talk about her and theyāre like āha yes great movieā NO NOT THE SAME SHIT DUDE
