If you loved The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel, try The Second Best Exotic Marigold Hotel

A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.

What they share

Both films are directed by John Madden, and they both carry the bittersweet, cozy mood tags, and they sit in Comedy / Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What The Second Best Exotic Marigold Hotel is

The sequel nobody demanded returns to the well. Sonny, still running the original hotel, wants to expand his brand. Apparently one vacancy isn't enough to accommodate two new guests. It's a movie, alright.
