Downton Abbey: The Grand Finale: 4K Ultra HD + Blu-ray + Digital Code Review

 

Downton Abbey: The Grand Finale: 4K Ultra HD + Blu-ray + Digital Code is available now at retailers on and offline. I reviewed the box set on YouTube, which you can click on below if you want a more overall idea of what the entire story is about for this will simply be a review of the last film in the series.

The picture quality in 4K ultra HD is simply amazing. The clarity was so beyond anything. I can recall seeing that it almost looks three-dimensional. I thought I could almost put my hand through the screen and feel what I was seeing. This is especially the case of the opening Steady Cam sequence within the theater.Downton Abbey is almost feudalistic at times because right from the very beginning, even in the audio commentary, the shows writer and executive producer is quick to point out how the main characters that represent the family that we followed for six seasons and three future films, have the best seats while the servants are all the way up and using my own words might as well be the nosebleed seats. If one is to enjoy the show, one has to put away any sort of contempt, for what is almost a step away from feudalism in the sense that these are people from a different time and we cannot judge them in the way we would judge people today and the 21st century. The English have an interesting representative government, where their apparently is a democracy and yet there is also a royal family that is as far as I know, not supposed to really have any political power except for perhaps some cases where they may break a tie or something. Unfortunately, I’m not all that up on how British politics work despite the fact that I have a few friends in Great Britain and I enormously have loved the English culture. So this is not a show about poor people and yet it really is a show about passing on the baton not just to a younger generation, but saying farewell, and in an interesting way, everyone gets good closure even characters who may not have been well liked or may not have always been kind or forthright decent to good closure in their storylines. If you are a fan of the series and the feature films that followed it then I could tell you right now that you should watch this film because it is a celebration of everything that came before it and a fitting conclusion to the series as a whole. 

Besides the fantastic picture quality found on both the 4K ultra HD Blu-ray disc and digital copies, the discs also feature a very well rounded English DolbyATMOS surround soundtrack. French and English Dubbed Dolby Digital Plus Surround Soundtracks are also encoded along with English Subtitles for the Deaf and Hearing Impaired as well as French Canadian and Latin American Spanish Language Soundtracks encoded as options.

There are a number of extra value features to be found within the set as well as Movies Anywhere Digital Copy. these include a feature length audio commentary with Director Simon Curtis and Actress Elizabeth McGovern that is screen specific. The rest of the extra value features basically examine the theme of changing times on the series as well as the authenticity that was put into the making of the film and a farewell to fans from the cast and filmmakers, sharing heartfelt memories with a men’s gratitude for the support and love of the fans. 

Overall, if you already have the previous seasons and the previous movies, then this is a no-brainer way to complete your collection, but regardless, I have to stay without a reservation that for those who love fine British drama, you can do far worse with tabloid imitation. Watch Downton Abbey: The Grand Finale: 4K Ultra HD + Blu-ray + Digital Code now that it is available at retailers on and offline courtesy of Universal Studios Home Entertainment.
