The kind of title no one really likes even if it masks a good film.

Best Exotic Marigold Hotel

Rating: C+
Commentary: So many marigolds that it seems to unnecessary. There are times when you want to over-accentuate your title in the poster, but there are others, like this, where a minimalist approach might have yielded better results. Still, it’s abundance of color may draw enough interest to make it a useful sales tool. 		Rating: B+
Commentary: When you have this many talented actors (Dev Patel excluded) in one film, you can’t help but have a great deal of fun along with them. The film might not be very good overall, but at least you know you’ll have a master class of actors giving you their all.

Oscar Chances: A March release is usually a death knell for this kind of picture, so I don’t know that it will be remembered in January of 2013. However, Judi Dench, Maggie Smith or Bill Nighy could pick up a career Oscar nomination for this.
