I'm sorry but this movie may not be suitable for younger audiences (under 20s), not due to any scene in particular but because of its story line which might only be fully understandable for those who have lived a little.We have some moments in life when we look back and think about where we are from and where we are going, and this movie is telling us that it is never too late to live, to embrace a new story and life itself.Maggie Smith 'steals' the whole spotlight whenever she is on screen, a wonderful performance with typical British humor and sarcasm which I have always enjoyed; Judi Dench plays her character brilliantly and Bill Nighy embraced his character in the most natural way I have ever seen. It may be a little too Bollywood for my own personal taste (that is why I didn't gave it a 10 out of 10) but all in all I didn't notice the time passing by, I have thoroughly enjoyed the story, and it made me think a little about my own life as well.

From the start, this sequel had a great opportunity. The cast, the script all great plus using our film cars in Spain for the shootings.Over 400 films have been produced in our area in Spain. This title is one of the larger titles.After the movie was completed, our team watched our vehicles, and we added our behind the scenes videos and photos we captured on the set.What we captured was exactly like what was in the movie.I really liked how the film led up to a great wedding.Did you know we have over 100 cinema cars involved in this film, mostly for the beginning mustang scene?Our team was there at 4:00 in the morning, waiting to get on the highway. If you watch the left side and in front of the mustang you can see a glimpse of our other cars.But what made this film the best was not our cars, it was the production team and the cast.The last minute during the dance the cast and lead actors had to learn the dance moves impromptu , play the guitar, pet the dog.. were some phrases they used. Great movie to watch over and over.

Hi, I'm a movie fanatic: action, kick boxer, zombies, soppy love stories, you name it. The first one was okay. As a baby boomer woman (so you won't stereotype my review), I found the first one a little boring and predictable. It was also depressing, not because of age or for any of the reasons that one might expect, but because it seemed to take a negative view throughout much of the movie. Let's take the wife, Jean Ainsle. At some point, you say to yourself, "Okay, okay, I have it. She's a (you know what). You don't have to beat it to death." But all of that is nothing compared to this movie. Even the sequences with Richard Gere and (not to spoil it) that are supposed to be charming do not make the grade. I will look up more about John Madden's life at some point but for now, has he been in therapy for his entire life for depression? Is he on antidepressants? What's the deal. These are not clever twists. We've seen all of this before in better movies.The negativity got so repetitive and useless--with all of the characters--if you think about it that I wondered what the point was. When Jean Ainsle showed up, I thought, "Oh yes, I guess we have to go here again." Sure, there are some glowing moments, but by that point, I wondered how I'd even made it through the movie. Earlier, I'd thought of just turning if off, but I plugged through.A movie cannot redeem itself simply through location or giving us more insight into another culture.

After having seen the first installment, "The best exotic marigold hotel", I had to see this one! Both films are very masterfully written, acted, directed, and produced! I'm not generally a fan of films that take place in foreign countries like India, although I like to keep an open mind. But the first film was so well done, especially the acting and writing, that I was hooked early on. There are many profound and deep subjects addressed and it inspires thought long after the film ends. This second film was every bit as good, if not better. I must applaud and thank everyone involved in the making of both films! I am definitely adding these to my collection and will recommend them highly! Every time I watch these movies I learn something new and appreciate them even more.
