Please rate movie 1 to 5 stars
An absolute fresh breeze after way too many "action-terror" car crash films endlessly shown month after month
My husband and I loved every minute of this movie. We were sorry when it ended.
As good as the series and well worth the wait!
beautiful! for 2 hours they stayed true to the characters..a truly ensemble movie in which they got character involved. plot had to be simple it was only a 2 hour movie. I think you had to be a fan of the series to truly enjoy and appreciate this wonderful show.
There was so much going on that I would call this a super-charged episode of the show. It was an episode, but an extra amazing one!
my husband and I absolutely loved the series - the movie was beautiful to look at and we love the cast - but were very disappointed because was a very weak/ almost nonexistent plotline.. I totally hate to say that.my husband was bored especially for the first half hour.. even though we are very devoted fans. - We were expecting much more from Julian Fellows in this movie. But we do know people who just loved it - (we can;t figure that out!)
Amazing Movie, I saw the whole series, & it’s Fabulous!!!! Love it!!!
Blimey, a real gem. Superb acting, costumes, era placement...just great. Kinda opens a window of what the upper snobby elite upper class were possibly like, and then the servants maids et al and their interaction with the Kings servants pecking order and the Brits love of their King. The King back then was Jesus coming to earth. Lots of verbal snipes between all and no F...words. Amazing, it can be done. Slow but great mini stories.
I think it was a super movie I enjoyed everything about it It was entertaining and for a change no F... bombs. Well played everyone and lots of good humour
Just terrific - superb acting! - fabulous writing ! Better than expected - tv series though to equal or beat - they did it!
Of course it is for fans, and as a fan I loved it. The pageantry of the period looked awesome on the big screen. Lady Grantham's zingers delivered as well. Well done :)
Loved it!
No plot cast good but nothing to work with. What happened Julian?
True to franchise...great plot and subplot.....waiting for SEQUEL
Loved it ,need more
LOVE IT! Please, Sir, may I have more!! WE WANT A SQUEAL!
Loved this movie! Great to see all the characters again and the storyline was excellent!
If your a fan of Downton Abbey TV show your going to love it! It felt great seeing all the cast again! Finally a movie that makes you feel good after seeing it.. No Violence or Superheroes! Bravo!!
Unless one is British and holds allegiance to an outdated monarchy, I can see no appeal to this movie whatsoever. As per the new social propaganda displayed in recent movies, it also includes the obligatory homosexual scenes as well.
Loved seeing the characters again and to see their lives continued in this story line. The struggles continue to keep afloat is still alive....more to come
A nice little movie but it is really for fans of the tv show. It has a lightweight story. However there are no explosions, superheroes or spaceships which is a big plus.
Excellent movie!! After watching the entire PBS Masterpiece Theater series I can honestly say it carried forward the same well thought out script.
I enjoyed the tv series thoroughly and was simply hooked, and the movie follows suit. It was good to visit Dowtown Abbey once again. I highly recommend for all the fans.
Just fun....like visiting the family again. Very enjoyable, carries on right where the series left off.
Maybe i'm not being fair to rate this movie because I have not seen the television series. I found the beginning half was very boring and didn't really know the characters so was lost as to what was going on. I did however start to enjoy the 2nd half of movie. Just saying I'm sure it was a great movie to all the people that have seen the series but I suggest if you haven't seen it than I would advise you not to go. Acting and costumes were good.
Movie was great! Really enjoyed seeing all the actors and actresses again. I would see it again!
Fantastic movie. Loved it. *****
Absolutely loved the movie - I went with my wife and daughter who are both avid fans and we all felt the movie was outstanding. Excellent story and so nice to be back at Downton Abbey again! Well worth seeing at the cinema - if you are a fan you WILL like it.
The producers are to be commended for their attention to detail. The characters and music are WONDERFUL from start to finish. I am a fan of the tv series. The movie did not disappoint! An uplifting film.
Loved the series. Disappointed in movie. Silly plot. Did manage to give most characters a spotlight, but effort to do so showed. Costumes were great. And Maggie had good lines, of course.
Loved it. Saw it twice. My husband thoroughly enjoyed it as well. Took my Aunt Jean to see this movie and she “loved it.”
Fabulous; I will go back to see it several times
It reminded me of the TV series of the same name.
Liked EVERYTHING ABOUT THE MOVIE. Would love to see a sequel
I was actually glad to see Thomas find a little happiness and other men of his own proclivity. He's in desperate need of a little understanding and to feel there's nothing wrong with him, maybe he'll be a nicer person then. Also, I thought it was very tasteful, it wasn't the focus of the movie, just a small plot within the larger plot. Now that that's been taken care of, I don't think we need to see anything more about his love life, other than a small mention that he's found someone, or something like that. Poor guy has gone through a lot during the course of the show.
Did not disappoint! Better than we expected. Wonderful!
Very enjoyable.
Enjoyed most of the movie, but did not need the close up of the two men kissing and the forced acceptance of the gay tone.
If you liked/loved the TV series you will absolutely love this. All the original characters are there. Makes you long for this bygone period of history. 10 Stars! RAN
Was the best. Loved it. Left it with a possible future show or movie. Wished a station would pick it up for another run. Wished they had paired Mrs Patmore with Mr Mason.
I saw this movie this afternoon. I am a fan of Downton Abbey series and I was not disappointed! Each character was true to how they have always been. The scenes were gorgeous! The costumes beautiful! The story line as it should be. The humor...ah...Granny! She steals the show! I loved the movie and so glad that I went to see it! A few very touching moments...
The movie was well written! It had beautiful music that was turn-of-the century. Need to make more cinemas like this one!
It was amazing. Well written, great acting and all around great movie.
I loved it. Well done and whitty. Beautifully filmed.
Marvelous
Bravo! Julian Fellowes is a great magician. What a masterful presentation of life among the privileged in England almost a century ago. A perfect tableau down to the smallest detail. A feel good movie which begs for a sequel.
Fine writing, acting and production: Downton Abbey lives up to and beyond expectations. Thoroughly enjoyable. My only negative comment is I don't want to be force-fed "new sexuality" via the fine medium of Downton Abbey.
My friend and I had not seen the tv series but we both enjoyed the movie. The costumes, scenery and acting were top notch!
Great to see Downton Abbey again but the movie seems somewhat contrived to provide "cameos" for the entire cast. At times it seemed like a long trailer.
Loved It ! A wonderful movie! If you liked the TV series, you will enjoy this very much!
