The stakes in the film are high enough for some plot, but low enough to maintain healthy blood pressure. There is a delicious lack of exposition — and plenty of inside jokes for the true fans.
Sep 5, 2025
Despite the nostalgic glow that prettily coddles the film, there is a delectably unsubtle passing-the-baton theme that runs through the richly populated affair.

Great ending to the Downton series with some superb performances- sad to see it ended
Report
Sep 11, 2025
“The Grand Finale” is pure, uncut “Downton,” but one where screenwriter Julian Fellowes finally seems at peace with not trying to cram in every character into every scene.
Sep 3, 2025
This Finale is basically one giant victory lap that takes the Crawley family and their employees into 1930 and beyond — as Cole Porter once wrote, “it’s fun/it’s fresh/it’s post-/depresh.”
Oct 3, 2025
It would be unfair to claim this closing film concludes on a whimper. But neither is it quite the grand finale the title would have us believe. More like a pleasant stroll with characters you know and love.
Sep 3, 2025
It’s not a peak for the doughty franchise so much as a reverential goodbye. Jollity is also served, when it’s not straining for misplaced importance.
Sep 3, 2025
The film, written by Julian Fellowes on autopilot and directed by Simon Curtis (in a trance?), climaxes with a scene that is simultaneously grossly saccharine and deeply cynical.
Sep 12, 2025
"Downton Abbey: The Grand Finale" is an enjoyable, meaningful, (mostly) sharply-scripted farewell to the beloved series.

The Crawleys and their staff are back for a final wrap-up of the franchise. All the primary characters have returned to their privileged life, when scandal erupts. In addition, financial issues threaten their heritage. This is basically more of the same from creator Julian Fellowes: challenges met with grace, smart dialogue, interesting character development and lovely visuals. It’s like settling into an old estate, musty memories and all. The returning cast continues their appeal with a few new characters for spice. Fans of the show will find this a well-done, expected finale with everyone happy.
