Very beautifully filmed extremely predictable story with non-developing characters that do exactly what you would expect from them.

Just seen Downton Abbey and sorry to say it was disappointing. Apart from a very dull predictable storyline the 'shoe horned in' sub plots about the IRA and Homosexuality were total hog wash. Acting wise only Smith and Wilton stood out and as for Michelle Dockery - looks like she went to carpentry school rather than drama school - she is so wooden. Laura Carmichael's posh voice got posher as the film plodded on and Carson hid his light under a bushel. If it was not for the lavish sets this film would be still be crashing through the Earths core. Kermode talks about films being a Nuts and Bolts film - this effort was more tacks and pins.

Everyone is back! If you love the Crawley's, you will love the movie. It's fun, full of glamour & pageantry, and a few twists & turns. It's a little predictable, but who cares. It's fun. Violet, our lovable dowager, is her quip usual self, & thank goodness. A few new characters have entered on scene that are delightful, and hopefully will return for the next movie. To be a set designer & purchaser for this film must have been a fabulous treat! Oh, my. If you like antiques, this is the movie for you. Also, the lighting in several scenes were simply extensions of the moment. They were just perfect. Be prepared to be pleasantly entertained and enthralled by it all.
