Moviegoers are saying
This Downton Abbey finale delivers an emotionally satisfying farewell that had devoted fans reaching for tissues, though newcomers may find themselves lost in the elegant dinner parties and character callbacks. While some viewers craved more dramatic tension and missed opportunities for juicy backstories (especially regarding Mary's romantic history), the film succeeds as a beautifully crafted love letter to longtime series devotees.

maurakySep 10, 2025I’m not a Lady Mary apologist because she has nothing to apologize for.
saraSep 10, 2025Contains every element of classic Downton Abbey: -Mary slutting it up -Someone trying to blackmail Mary for slutting it up -Americans not being very English (cue raucous laughter) Thomas stole every scene, his homosexual happiness is truly infectious and so long overdue.…

Just, perfect. Sad it’s gone but happy we got to experience it.
Jordan likedDownton Abbey: The Grand FinaleIt feels surreal to be at the end of Downton Abbey. After spending over *119 hours with the Crawleys, it honestly feels like I'm saying goodbye to family from another life. *I ended up rewatching the entire 6 seasons and 2 prior movies to prepare for this finale movie. The finale was such a…
Jen lovedDownton Abbey: The Grand FinaleI love these movies so much! The humor is so smart, the acting is fantastic, and the emotions really pull you in. I loved the flashbacks at the end and the final moment of the movie which definitely had me fighting tears if you’re a fan of these movies and TV show, then you’ll love this movie

loved it what an amazing ending for everyone (still hope there will be a spin off or anythinggg🙏🙏)
Amy St.Clair lovedDownton Abbey: The Grand FinaleUgh literally the best. I cried my eyes out!!!!
Bryan Beckel likedDownton Abbey: The Grand FinaleThis does feel more like a tribute project than an actual continuation of the story. As it does wrap things up nicely, and pays homage to Maggie Smith, I feel like the Plot could have been stretched a bit longer, as the villain of the story seems to meet his match a bit early.

Genuinely, if u have watched all the other movies and all the seasons, it was so good. It was just a massive goodbye that was done so well. All those characters - I love y’all so much 😍😍😍 Goodbye for now 😭😭😭
Jayjayj625 likedDownton Abbey: The Grand FinaleI love so much that this show has turned into this phenomenon. “The grand finale” is sad and throughout the movie you could see everyone’s chapters closing for the next one. Was a nice end.
Angie Lankford lovedDownton Abbey: The Grand FinaleAbsolutely delightful end to the show. The costumes, the acting, the cinematography, all of it was stunning, and the end of the film was a fine tribute to Dame Maggie Smith.👍🏻👍🏻

A great way to say goodbye to Downton.
DMDaniel MorrisI watched it with my wife. The movie should be called Dinner at Downtown Abby. for the many dinners they dress up for. I wonder how the actors managed to keep their slim figures with all the reshoots, etc.

If you love Downton you’ll appreciate it but we were a bit underwhelmed. There definitely could have been more drama towards the beginning of the film and then land the plane nicely. Seemed like missed opportunity to give us the tea on Mary and her ex hubby. That would have…
MPMARK PICKENSFinely crafted. Charming and beautiful to watch
AQAlexa QuezadaA great finale to a cinematic era. Beautiful callbacks to the series, bringing back memories while keeping everything hopeful about the future.
- LSLINDA SCHULTER
Best only for fans who have followed the series from the beginning. Otherwise it likely not appeal to a general audience.
SMSuzanne McCormickSentimental, if you had followed every season and watched the special extras!! I cried at the end! Knew I would!
PKPamela KingA great ending and farewell to this very heartwarming well written story

With a mix of old characters and new, worldly upheaval and small-town dramas, Fellowes illustrates what Downton has always done best, which is a social examination of how much things have changed and how they haven’t changed at all.

Downton Abbey: The Grand Finale is as good as it needs to be, though like the other movies it’s probably a complete puzzlement to anyone not already familiar with the franchise, and creator/writer Julian Fellowes can’t resist having someone earnestly intone something about Things Change And We Must Change With Them every two minutes.

This final movie will give loyal Downton fans what they want: a satisfying bit of closure and the sense that the future, though a bit scary, may look kindly on Downton Abbey as long as Mary is in charge.
