Whether or not it succeeds will depend on how individual viewers weigh the movie's narrative flaws against the profound appeal of its stars and setting. For my part, it was a reminder that sometimes second best is good enough.

Chances are, if you liked The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel, you'll like the second best one as well.

Sure, it has the comfy vibe of the familiar, but it's all in feel-good fun.

That's the wonderful thing about great actors -- they can turn gush into gold.
