“I adore the TV series, and this film was more of the same, which I loved. It is full of the same beautiful production quality, wit and humour.nI can hear the criticisms already u0026#39;it was too sentimentalu0026#39;, u0026#39;there wasnu0026#39;t enough complicationu0026#39; but my answer to that is that many of these characters had intense story arcs in the show, so itu0026#39;s nice to revisit them now and see them living, or finally getting, their happy endings without too much drama.nEveryone in the cinema, myself included, laughed the whole way through this film, as is to be expected from Downton Abbey. And then there were other moments that were quite poignant to offset the humour, which blended perfectly.nYes, itu0026#39;s a movie for fans of the show, but why shouldnu0026#39;t it be? After years supporting this show and following these characters, why shouldnu0026#39;t we be rewarded?nI had high expectations for this film, and was very satisfied with it, and that doesnu0026#39;t happen often. Well done to Julian Fellowes for staying true to his characters and delivering a film that is a delight to watch!”
