The new Downton Abbey film

Good point nanna8 More PC female empowerment?

We thought Hugh actually looks younger in this film- perhaps he has had a bit of work done. He looks too young to be the Dad and how come the eldest daughter became the matriarch and not his wife ?

I loved it, cheesy yes, like a box of violet creams.
I was a bit shocked by Bonneville’s appearance, hope he’s ok…

I liked the film a lot, was amusing in parts. Yes, H. Bonneville appears to have lost weight, almost ill looking imo......

I found the bowing and forelock tugging in the first film quite sickening. However, I was pleasantly surprised by how much I enjoyed this one even though I can’t take to that Lady Mary. Hugh B looks as though he has lost weight. It suits him.

I went with friends on Tuesday. I thought everything was telegraphed from the start. It wasn't deep and meaningful but it passed a couple of hours.

Haven’t seen the film, but in the trailers, Hugh Bonneville seems to look different somehow.

Has he had ‘work’ done, or is it the make up?

Or is it me?

Well that's 2 hours of my life that I won't get back. More ham in that film than in a butcher's window.

Yes I agree with you BigBertha1
Just as I'm wriggling around in my seat at the cheesy lines, they hit me with a very touching scene that leaves me near to tears
(I wont give anything away)

We went to see it on Bank Holiday Monday in the huge screen room. There was 8 people in there at 11am so it was very comfortable. Fabulous dresses, terrible script but very enjoyable all the same.

Me too.

I’m looking forward to seeing it next week.

We always go on a Tuesday or Wednesday as I have a Meercat Movie code which gets us in half price . If you are interested googie Meercat movies from Compare the market . Our cinema now £11 a go so well worth it . You buy one day's insurance and that gets you the discount for a year.

I am going on Saturday. I am glad to hear a good review.

I’m going to see it on Sunday with DD. Can’t wait.

I haven’t been to the cinema for years as DH hated them so I used to take my mum or go with a friend. After mum died it was easier to just not bother.

I'm so keen to see this but couldn't get DH to agree. One day though!

Go on your own, or with a friend.

My DH doesn’t like the same films as I do.
