There are so many films that try to make the story line so hard to follow; this is not one of them. I look forward to the sequel - there is much more adventure and life ahead of both of these women and how their families accept their new found joy of life. Bring it on.

I liked the movie but it was a bit predictable and stiff. Joan Collins is much older and it shows in her acting. As one reviewer put it, it's almost a movie about her life. A nice film to watch for the locations but don't expect to be anything but slowly moving along with a plot that flows like honey, very slow.

Joan Collins is back and she has wonderful scenes. There are no aliens nor guns just two old ladies who came together with some sad and some funny moments. And there is just more than it looks on the beginning.Camera work and scenery are wonderful.For the younger CGI and X-Men-whatever generation it might be slow and possible boring but I would call it as a wonderful heart wearming old school movie. And Joan Collins (wellknow as Alexis Carrington Colby from the 80s super hit "Dynasty") is portraying wonderful a old Hollywood diva.Fazit: personally I loved it

21 March 2017 Film of Choice at The Plaza Dorchester this afternoon - The Time of Their Lives. Starring Joan Collins and Pauline Collins as Helen and Priscilla, two women who couldn't be more different, they end up together on a bus on a day trip to the beach which culminates in them both ending up in France. Billed as a female buddy movie, this was a lot more mundane, these two characters were not really buddies, just two ageing women drawn together by the desperateness of their lives, one a Hollywood actress whose star is definitely on the wane, the other an unappreciated housewife haunted by memories of the past. What ensued should have been funnier, should have been more emotional but in reality the acting was wooden and slightly uncomfortable to watch. Take Joan Collins out of the equation and I felt I was watching a modern remake of Paulines Collins' big hit Shirley Valentine. It was a pleasant enough way to spend a couple of hours but that's about it.
