The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel





The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel directed by John Madden staring Judi Dench, Tom Wilkinson, Maggie Smith and Bill Nighy. 

I'm still a firm believer that if you get a bunch of British actors to star in anything, it immediately makes the production that much better. This movie is proof of that. Not a perfect movie by any standards but the quality of the actors in it make it that much better and believe me it does. To see them acting is alone the best reason to see this movie. I also like the fact the actors are older and not the new, hot, young things that Hollywood keeps pushing onto the public because let me tell you this group of actors can act circles around anything Hollywood throws before the public. Honestly there's just not enough movies now-a-days that star older people or at least ones that have a half way decent storyline, which this movie does and really seems to care about the characters in the movie. 

This is just a good little movie about what happens when time finally catches up with you and the decisions that have to be made when your body and life finally start to wear you down. Those decisions, as they always do, will end up defining you as time moves on, no matter how old you are. A good movie and worth seeing for the acting alone, as I said above.
