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
The film is the 6th Case Closed feature film, released in Japan on April 20, 2002. Phantom of Baker Street is the first film in the series written by Hisashi Nozawa. This was the last of the Detective Conan films done in traditional animation. It was released on February 16, 2010 in America on DVD. This movie brought 3.4 billion yen in the box office. The story features several characters from and references to the Sherlock Holmes series, which Detective Conan is heavily inspired by, and Jack the Ripper.
In the film, cases happen in the world of a game and real. The characters and audiences should solve two cases. When I watch the film, I am excited because I don't expect what happen next and what Conan does to solve cases. One of the highlight of the film is the ties that bind Conan's father and Conan together. I also want you to pay attention to the bonds of friendship.

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.
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.
