Wendy Ide Observer (UK) It’s all tiresomely fatuous, coasting along on the familiarity of the characters and fabulousness of the frocks. On this, at least, it doesn’t disappoint. Oct 7, 2025 Full Review Mark Kermode Kermode and Mayo's Take (YouTube) It's not very good, but it doesn't need to be. Sep 27, 2025 Full Review Stephen Romei The Australian This movie is a pleasure to watch. It is beautifully shot (cinematographer Ben Smithard) and gloriously costumed (costume designer Anna Robbins). Rated: 3.5/5 Sep 20, 2025 Full Review Michael Calleri Niagara Gazette American audiences have long proven that they draw immense pleasure from watching wealthy Brits go about their well-heeled business. This is a comedy that respects its characters and is willing to honor traditions. There is a lot going on in this edition. Oct 16, 2025 Full Review James Mottram Radio Times 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. Rated: 3/5 Oct 15, 2025 Full Review Pablo Vázquez Fotogramas ...a worthy and fulfilling finale, with the pomp, protocol, and twilight tone typical of farewells.

Camille Always liked the series and the characters, loved the last scene! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 10/17/25 Full Review David Dauphin It ties up the whole series so respectfully. Each character gets a limelight and wrap up. And the Dowager, Maggie Smith, is honored at the end to which the movie is dedicated. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 10/17/25 Full Review Kelly C So wonderful to see everyone again! The actors are all so talented and beautiful. The costumes and scenery were gorgeous. Interesting and engaging storyline. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 10/17/25 Full Review Derrick Solid movie for the most part and my wife loves this movie and series.

Rated 5 out of 5 stars 10/16/25 Full Review Michael V I enjoyed the program and so did my wife. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 10/15/25 Full Review Read all reviews
