Review of The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel (2012) by Foxgrove — 12 Dec 2012

Manipulative British starrer which has an air about it of being an important film. The actors are not served well by a script that is cliched. Plot development is also illogical, for example Maggie Smith's grouchy and tiresome character becoming all accommodating at the end.

Also, the son's arranged marriage is all of a sudden conveniently thrown out of the window without so much as a pout. As if! The Indian locations, however, are gorgeous.
