The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel

Went to see this movie yesterday, mostly for the number of British stars in the cast: Judi Dench is the center of this movie, with Maggie Smith trying to steal it from her, and Bill Nighy and Tom Wilkinson also threatening to. I don't think anyone's made a movie before this about a bunch of retirees going to live in a disarrayed Indian palace-turned-hotel, though all the same, it didn't feel unlike a lot of movies I've seen involving this kind of cast. Though it's hard to mind that when the movie's done this well.
Sure, poor Penelope Wilton gets stuck playing a harridan wife(though even she has her moment of redemption in the end), and ( then there was that other kind of cliche... )
