Just returned from seeing this tonight and thoroughly enjoyed it. Arrived earlier than usual and was surprised to have sit near the front so a lot of other people must have been eagerly anticipating the movie too! But for once, I think it helped to make us feel as if we there in India! (Although it would have been nice if the two women sitting next to us watched the film rather than chatting through it!)

Great characters, great acting - a lovely feel good film. I enjoyed every last minute :)

I still feel it is such a good film, still a delight, and I enjoyed it just as much, actually even more so the second time. I could watch this cast over and over again, especially Bill Nighy and Judi Dench. I think I will give it one more point than I did last time, so 10/10 o/

Lovely to see some FMUKers. Seems like ages I have not seen Sunny Saver, nice to catch up with ejwrank, shmile and say hi to celini, who looked really tanned from her holiday!

Me too.
I rarely have the patience to watch some films once, but have watched this twice in a week and I loved it. Thankfully it was so good, I think it made me refrain from slapping the two rude b.tches next to me eating popcorn as loud as they could and chatting throughout! I swear some people shouldn't be allowed out in public...Sorry - I'll stop moaning now. :blink:

We will be seing it again tomorrow as (after having seen it once at Wimbledon last week) both I and OH won tickets to see it at Westfields. So we will check out that new-ish cinema as it probably one of the closest cinemas to us.

Saw this tonight at a almost full Didsbury Cineworld and really enjoyed it. Great cast, good story and plenty of laughs along the way. Maggie Smith as always was brill - I'm waiting for the sequel.
