I agree with many other reviewers who missed seeing Miss Fisher and DI Jack Robinson in Melbourne. The story didn't seem quite right with only a tiny dose of Dot, Hugh, Cec & Burt and Mr. Butler. Having said that, Miss Fisher did have some shining moments in the film with her dramatic entrance to her own Memorial Service and her "running on the top of a train headed into a tunnel" escape scene. The costumes and scenery in the movie are beautiful. All in all, I enjoyed watching the film. I honestly didn't expect to live up to it the series. I am a big Downton Abbey fan as well and the follow-on film wasn't as wonderful as the series either. Fingers crossed that the series comes back someday!
