Spoilers for the end of the film/The Final Problem
At the end of the film we see Holmes fall over Reichenbach Falls with Moriarty, Watson comes out onto the balcony second before he falls and sees this happen, believing Holmes to be dead. We see at the end of the film that Holmes isn’t dead and anyone familiar with the story will know that Holmes and Watson are later reunited but, as of the end of the film, Watson is uncertain as to whether or not Holmes is alive.

We don’t see Holmes use cocoa leaves but they’re mentioned and he acts high. We see him drink embalming fluid.

58:14-59:59 There’s a scene where Mycroft wanders around his house naked. Mary is obviously uncomfortable and he says something like “after being around her he can see why someone might want to have company with a woman”

There isn’t excessive violence or horror but there are violent scenes. There are fistfights, guns, knives, characters are shot at with various guns and canons. At one point, a character is suspended from the ceiling by a hook that is stabbed through his shoulder, there is minimal blood and the scene isn’t too long or graphic but could be distressing. This happens when two characters are in a lighthouse on a military base, one is standing talking and the other is tied to a chair before the hook is stabbed through his shoulder.

Bodies of water are shown at several points throughout the film. Characters travel on a boat and the sea can be seen around them. Towards the end of the film two characters fall from a balcony over a waterfall and into the water below.

This does not happen however some of the shots in the film use an unusual perspective where the camera follows the movements of object, like guns and canons, which can be disorientating. This is especially the case where characters are escaping from a military compound after crossing the border into Germany.

A character is suspended from the ceiling by a hook that has been stabbed through his shoulder and he screams in pain (the scene is not very graphic or very long). Other characters are shot and there is some violence and screaming.

Towards the beginning of the film, when Watson first enters the flat, he makes a comment about Holmes losing weight to which Holmes responds that Watson has "found it", making a joke about him gaining weight. The exchange is very brief and nothing more is mentioned after this.

Holmes is on multiple drugs and drinking poison for fun. His friends mention taking him to a sanitorium, which in Victorian England, often hurt the mentally ill and neurodivergent more than they helped.
Another friend calls him “manic” and “psychotic” in a negative way.
He armchair diagnoses someone as having no empathy and narcissism by looking at his handwriting, which is not only pseudoscience but actively stigmatizes actual people with NPD, especially correlating them to a villain.
