RAVE - Best Exotic Marigold Hotel

The audience at The Kabuki Theater was sooo appropriate for this story of a group of aging English people who retire to a crumbling hotel in Jaipur, India. 

It too was ancient.

This was a cute movie, perhaps a bit too cute. The humor was a bit predictable, with the elderly retirees turning their noses up at the squalor, the stench, the food, and the people in India. But the audience lapped it all up, with geriatric chuckles at every juncture.

However, I'm being churlish. Mrs. Page loved it, and that was enough for me.

But you can strike India off my list of ideal retirement spots.
