El club de las abejas reina

It's great to see a romantic comedy involving the silver population. The story is sweet, engaging and heart warming. I certainly hope I'll be able to experience such joy as the characters have.

This film takes you into the realm of senior living. It's a feel-good film and it's a lot of fun. We all hope to grow old comfortably, in pleasant surroundings, with great food. We also hope that if we're afflicted with cervical cancer, Alzheimers, or a stroke, that they're just minor inconveniences as portrayed in this film. In other words, this film is a light way to spend a couple of pleasant hours watching our futures as we hope they'll unfold.

Super cute movie, while not realistic when it comes to senior care homes, wish it was but, (that's what movies are supposed to do, give us hope). All the main characters both men and women were Hilarious and I love Burstyn's attitude toward life and people (cause I'm the same way, I don't own a Welcome Mat, but I have a sign on my door that says, "Be Nice or LEAVE!!") I refuse to suffer FOOLS and love that about Burstyn's character. Jane Curtin is a wonderful kind of NASTY GIRL, and Loretta Devine and Ann Margaret were just Lovely. Caan and Lloyd were both just Charming. Fun movie, worth a watch. We should be so lucky to be in that good of shape in our mid and late 80's. ;o.

Bravo!!! Such a respectful film with the older generation of actors in giving them dignity with the life they still have and portraying it, as it is in reality with everyone actually, for the world to see. Love and human kindness is is to be standard with anyone, anywhere, at any age! And life is life at any age or circumstance and is not to be overlooked or forgotten or ignored by anyone, including our own family!

More films, and music, should reflect the reality of who we are as a human beings and not displayed only in what is supposedly "acceptable" in fashion or looks or in style with perfection or highest standards!

We have lost touch in making films to portray the goodness, and heart felt needs of the human soul.

In this day when you can rarely find a movie not full of the F*bomb, GD, nudity, etc..., this was a lighthearted, fun time. The actors in the movie are all part of the all-time greats! Burstyn, Margaret, Curtain, Caan (RIP), Lloyd and the quirky, Loretta Devine (The Preacher's Wife), round this out for a sweet and fun good time.

We're all going to get old eventually and we might as well accept that. The parallel to high school drama was spot on. Those same cliques, cliches, "queen B's" are present throughout our lives. We first find this out when we finish school and join the workforce. And everyone deserves to find love regardless of his/her age.

So, if you are in the mood for a short respite from the daily grind with a cast of acting legends, this will check the box.
