Downton Abbey The Motion Picture

I received this DVD to review from Universal Pictures Home Entertainment.  All opinions expressed are my own.

Downton Abbey the motion picture is reuniting us with all of the characters we loved and loathed. 

The Crawley family and their servants are preparing for a visit from the king and queen. While most family members and servants are pulling together with teamwork and perseverance, not everyone is working with the best intentions. Prepare for romance and scandal!

I enjoyed this movie and it was nice to see the entire cast back together again.

This movie is appropriate for adults and older teens.

  1. I watched all the seasons of the tv show (and rewatched some episodes) - haven't seen the movie yet, but looking forward to it.

  2. I enjoy grown-up movies like this. I mean, I like a good Disney animated movie as much as anyone, but sometimes you just want to watch something like this.
