Celluloid Verdict
Purists may wince, but this brash, needle-dropping take on a pre-genius Holmes is undeniable fun — a caffeinated mystery romp that coasts on Guy Ritchie pace and Hero Fiennes Tiffin's live-wire charm.

What is Young Sherlock about?
Before the deerstalker: at nineteen, Sherlock Holmes is a brilliant, self-destructive troublemaker packed off to Oxford, where a murder investigation makes him its prime suspect. Clearing his name demands an unlikely alliance with scholarship student James Moriarty and a breakneck hunt — across Victorian England and beyond — for a missing relic tied to a conspiracy uncomfortably close to home. Guy Ritchie lends his kinetic swagger to an irreverent origin story for fiction's greatest detective.

Young Sherlock (2026) Review: Holmes Before the Legend

Young Sherlock is Prime Video's brash origin story for Holmes, sending a 19-year-old Sherlock to Oxford as a murder suspect, and it is fast, irreverent fun.
Yes. It is a lively, stylish mystery romp for viewers who want Sherlock Holmes with swagger and speed, though Conan Doyle purists may find it too loose.
