Avis pour The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel
Miami Herald
The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel provides a mini-fix for Downton Abbey addicts twitching over the fact that their beloved series won’t be back on PBS until next year (PBS is probably lamenting this too, Downton being its highest-rated show since, well...

The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel is an utter delight. Here is a satisfying comedy unafraid to have a heart and a brain, and it has no interest in toilet humor or cheap gags. It’s one for the mature crowd, as it earns lots of belly-laughs through...

As someone who will be travelling across Northern India in September, I was looking forward to seeing this movie purely to examine the gloriously vibrant world of Jaipur. In this regard, The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel does not disappoint.

Entertainment Weekly
Although reincarnation is never discussed in The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel, past lives exert a powerful presence in this lulling, happy-face story of retirement-age self-renewal, set in a shimmering, weltering, jewel-colored India.

A comedy-drama saved by the casting bell, "The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel" arranges for a tiptop collection of British character women and men to bring out the best in a pleasantly predictable story. Wait. Shouldn't that be "unhappily predictable"?...
Reel Views
The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel is one of those pleasant, inoffensive British movies that offers a passably entertaining two hours without providing material that could be construed as edgy or stimulating.

"The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel" follows a group of British seniors who move to a retirement home in India. What's advertised as an elegant place to spend their golden years is really in a state of disrepair.

Based on the 2004 novel by British writer Deborah Moggach, The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel is a lovely mess of a movie. Although the story is narrowly set in Jaipur, capital city of the Indian state of Rajasthan, and England, the film’s tone moves all...

The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel can best be described as a light confection of the type of quintessentially British humour that has proved increasingly popular with audiences over the last few years. Director John Madden (Shakespeare in Love) conjures...

Whisking a bunch of middle-class fogeys from the English suburbs to the sub-continent, The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel comes with all the wit, colour and mild condescension you’d expect from any self-respecting culture-clash caper.

In The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel, British retirees from different walks of life travel to India to take up residence in what they believe is a newly restored hotel, run by an over enthusiast young entrepreneur called Sonny (Dev Patel) who is having...

The movie is not that good, unfortunately. It was highly recommended to me by a friend and I was disappointed during the entire film. It is very superficial and unbalanced, it shows for long the supposed British prejudices while does not show enough...

Shame on 2-star movies for the indifference they cause. For the mild successes that quickly fade and for the flaws that could have been avoided with a simple change of procedure. For the fact that bad movies stir up some impassioned reaction.

The annoying thing about getting older isn't so much the increased aches and pains and such, it is more about being marginalized and ignored. This is especially bad for those of us who were once people who were once noticed and recognized.

It's familiar fish-out-of-water meets nutty oldsters in the latest from Shakespeare in Love's John Madden. The premise finds British pensioners of all archetypical makes escaping to India because it's cheap and unusual. Hopefully, in the far off...

The British are just fascinated with India. They have been since before they conquered and colonized the land, later granting independence to the Indian people. It only seems fitting that this British fascination with India got turned into a movie...

Bound to become one of the most talked-about films of the year, this whimsical ensemble comedy pushes all the right emotional buttons at the right moments. Even when you’re aware of it happening, the criminally good cast transcends the film’s flaws.

This reviewer probably hasn’t experienced enough of what life has in store for him, but for most parts of the past three decades he has been in existence in this part of the world, he has been dreaming of going far, far away.

Welcome back to India as western cinema likes to show it. A quaintly dingy country that's bursting at the seams as rickshaws and cows jostle for room on roads with women in bright saris, their pallus drawn right down to cover the face.

There are contrivances and some unconvincing character turns but the top-notch cast are a hoot, while Wilton mines real frustration and heartache as grit-in-the-oyster Jean.

In scenes strikingly redolent of Carry On Abroad, Sonny’s ‘Best Exotic Marigold Hotel’ turns out to be a crumbling dump with few of the home comforts its fussier new residents (Maggie Smith, Penelope Wilton) demand.

SEVEN British people, embarking on the twilight years, go to India on the promise of retirement in a palace hotel. That's already a great premise for a comedy but the casting is such as dreams are made of. This lot would attract an audience even if the...

Colourful and engaging, this lively comedy-drama gives a handful of mature actors terrific roles to play within a bustling international setting. It feels a bit cute and tame, but it's still entertaining.

The combination of Judi Dench and Maggie Smith promises a dignified yet playful tone, and this comedy-drama doesn’t disappoint. A group of pensioners head for Jaipur only to wind up in a ramshackle hotel managed by the inexperienced Sonny (Dev Patel).

BRITISH films with Indian themes have gone from the sublime to the ridiculous over the years.
