The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel is a British comedy-drama filled with great actors. It’s sweet, without being overly so, and I really enjoyed it.
The story is about a group of retired English people who go to India to live at the Best Exotic Marigold Hotel.

The Dark Knight Rises [2012]
At last I got to see the last Batman movie, and I loved it.
Good writing, great visuals, very good action scenes, amazing actors, and the only superhero that makes my heart flutter. Doesn’t hurt that the Batman is such a libertarian hero.
Prometheus by Ridley Scott [2012]
Don’t.
I don’t particularly like Ridley Scott – Blade Runner is the exception. Nevertheless I gave it a shot, not knowing a thing about the movie apart from the fact it was about aliens. Again…
Unfortunately I just saw it was written by Damon Lindelof* after the movie was over and that explains a lot. Mr. Lindelof, you see, writes scripts like a bipolar chicken. Mediocre, confused, incoherent little plots that lack any attention to detail.
Yeah, that’s my review of this movie: Mediocre, confused, incoherent little plot that lack any attention to detail. Purty graphics, though.
74% on Rotten Tomatoes. I give it a 10%.
* One of the two writers responsible for the “Lost” series fiasco.
Chinese New Year in Paris
I just wrote a post on Photo Dudette about this year’s parade. Go see!
