Featured reviews
The premise is a little incredulous.Overall really enjoyable film but wearker than the movies before it. Hence a score of 7.5
What if a high-tech game trapped its players in a life-or-death mystery, where solving the case was the only way out? The movie blends classic Holmesian intrigue with futuristic tension, creating one of the franchise's most imaginative and daring entries.
The narrative begins with Conan and his peers entering "Cocoon," a revolutionary virtual reality system that immerses them in 19th-century London. What starts as a playful simulation quickly turns into a chilling ordeal when an AI takes control, declaring that failure to solve the mystery means death in both the game and reality. Plunged into a Victorian setting filled with references to Jack the Ripper and Sherlock Holmes, Conan must rely on logic, deduction, and teamwork to outwit both human malice and artificial intelligence.
Analytically, the film's strength lies in its layered themes. On one level, it's a gripping mystery that pays homage to Arthur Conan Doyle's legacy, complete with foggy streets and perilous chases. On another, it explores the ethical implications of technology-human reliance on machines, the dangers of unchecked AI, and the blurred line between virtual and real-world consequences. The atmosphere is tense and immersive, enriched by historical detail and the interplay of past and future. While some exposition-heavy scenes slow the momentum, the conceptual ambition elevates the film far beyond a standard detective narrative.
Rating: 9/10 - a bold, thought-provoking fusion of classic detective fiction and futuristic imagination, making it one of the most distinctive and memorable Conan films.

The movie is wonderful and it was the best movie I like in detective conan's movies it was fantastic experience
This is not a film. It's a unique masterpiece of all anime works, where Gosho succeeded in mixing both reality and fiction smoothly in two different times. The film message is brilliant, and the suspense never fades.
My favorite movie is "Meitantei Konan" series!! One of the best is "The Phantom of Baker Street" . It is a story of a detective boy. His name is Konan who is . He challenges to play a invented game which Children can only play. It is a sensory simulation game. Konan and 49 children play the game and go to stage of London in 100 years back. They meet Sherlock Holmes and fight with Jack the lipper who is a murderer. And in a real world, case of murder happens and is related to the truth of the game. Konan and other children try to solve a mystery in London.
It is a suspense and heart- stopping story. I love the story because I like Sherlock Holmes too. In this story, Konan co-stars with Holmes. So you can enjoy the movie more, if you read "Sherlock Holmes" . And London in 19 century is described very close. They are very cool. But the mystery of an incident in this movie is the easiest of the all series. So we can notice who is the murderer!! It is only unlucky things. But this movie is very exciting!! It is the original, also you can be exciting the ending!! So I want you to watch the movie.
