It's about old(er) people but still enjoyable for a young audience ;) Very funny and partly dramatic movie – definitely worth watching!

A comedy with a slightly deeper message. It could probably also sell a few trips to India by showing this other world to western tourists.

This is easily one of the best films I have ever watched. I cannot put it into words that will describe my feelings towards the film. From the very beginning to the very end, the characters were introduced excellently. You feel a strong bond for each and every character. Every single one of them are so relatable, as if this was a reality show and not a film. Especially in the days when most of the world continues to live repetitive lives due to the COVID-19 pandemic, more and more people question the ordinary lives we all have. This film can be the one spark you need in your life to start over. Would I watch this again? Absolutely! Would I make my friends watch it? Without a doubt!

This movie was very interesting because it really focuses on the older characters in a real, believable way. It gives them a real narrative, real struggles, and real progress, rather than the stereotypes you often see in movies. And it es able to do so without being cheesy or forced. It felt like real life and like real journeys. And you add in the cultural aspects, the process of adapting, of accepting, and it was an interesting movie to watch.

We've all read brochures that extol the virtues of an hotel or resort (or maybe even read the effusive nonsense MUBI write about their daily, "hand-picked" film selection) so we won't be surprised to learn that when a selection of elderly Brits arrive at the ramshackle "Exotic Marigold Hotel", they More

This is an excellent movie with a great cast. Before seeing the movie I saw one review categorizing it as having Benny Hill style comedy. I did _NOT_ see that at all in this movie. In fact, one criticism that I have is that I'd liked to have seen a little more comedy. One of the characters is truly More
