In this
version, Sonny (Dev Patel) has decided he is ready to expand. He and Mrs. Donnelly (Maggie Smith) travel to
San Diego to convince a hotel chain to invest.
They are told that an inspector will make an unannounced visit before a
decision will be made.
Sonny is on
pens and needles and becomes at odds with his fiancé, Sunaina who is played by
Tina Desae. It doesn’t help that one of
her brother’s friends (who is very good looking) is spending a lot of time with
her. When the inspector arrives, Sonny
immediately recognizes his purpose.
However the inspector, who is played by Richard Gere, says he is there
to write a book.
Evelyn (Judi
Dench) is offered a job as a fabric buyer and must decide if the amount of
travelling that will be required is what she wants at her age. Douglas (Bill Nighy), who is in love with
Evelyn, is afraid he will not have any time with her if she accepts the
job.
All of the
characters return and are dealing with different events in their lives
including Madge (Celia Imrie) who is
still hunting for a husband and Norman (Ronald Pickup) who has found his love
but is afraid he’s losing her. The
acting was quite good and I really enjoyed this movie. In fact, I enjoyed it as much as the
first.
I gave this movie three out of
four stars.
