ChicRawIdol A brilliant film that helped define a genre

BeSummers Funny, strange, confrontational and subversive, this is one of the most interesting experiences you'll have at the cinema this year.

Arianna Moses Let me be very fair here, this is not the best movie in my opinion. But, this movie is fun, it has purpose and is very enjoyable to watch.

Kayden This is a dark and sometimes deeply uncomfortable drama

Bancie3110 I was sad when The Golden Girls ended. And I was glad to see where they picked up where they left off. This show isn't all that bad I actually like it. It's funny watching "the girls" trying to run a hotel. Plus I liked seeing some of the old guess from The Golden Girls make guess appearance's. I wished it lasted longer than one season. But it just wasn't like The Golden Girls it was missing something in the story line in most of the episodes. I also missed the talks that they used to have while enjoying a cheesecake. There also seemed to be a bunch of story's going on in an episode whereas in The Golden Girls one episode had one maybe two story lines to it. The girls are still themselves in this show Blanche is still chasing men (if not more) and Sophia is still telling her stories as is Rose. If you like The Golden Girls I would recommend you to watch this show also.

smurfboy After the brilliant 'Golden Girls' ended when Bea Arthur - always the show's biggest star - left, the company behind it decided to try and continue the magic with the remaining girls. As the show wasn't the same without Arthur, they producers created a new situation, with the girls buying and running their own hotel. Sadly, this series just seemed a bit desperate. Although there were some funny moments, the brilliance of the Golden Girls was its simplicity, and the chemistry between the four leads. With Bea Arthur gone, the comic balance was lost, and new characters seemed out of place. Also the situation was unbelievable - where did three women who could only afford one house between them get the money to buy a swanky hotel? Why did they buy a hotel anyway? Far from awful, but certainly disappointing.

moonspinner55 The Golden Girls (minus Dorothy) sell the house and go off to run a swanky South Beach hotel. In the first episode of this sequel to "The Golden Girls", Blanche, Rose and Sophia are sitting on the wicker couch when two moving men walk in, pick it up and move it out. Blanche yells, "goodbye house!" This might've been heartbreaking territory for "Golden Girls" fans, but "The Golden Palace" had lots of funny things in store, most notably the colorful supporting performances by Don Cheadle and Cheech Marin--both terrific. The three episodes that stay in my mind are Dorothy's return in a two-parter which finds Sophia running BACK to Shady Pines (seems it has been converted into a posh resort, and when Rose finds out they have Circus Night, she checks in too--wearing dark glasses). The other episode is the sad, curious one where Miles asks NOT ROSE to marry him, but another woman; Rose tries to be big about it and invites the couple to get married in her hotel, and watches from the kitchen as Miles leaves her. Well-written, laugh-out-loud show never found an appropriate (or permanent) time-slot, but thankfully Lifetime has recently resurrected it and now we can all remember life at the "Palace".

P Adkins I am a HUGE fan of the Golden Girls. When Dorthy got married & the show ended on an emotional side I was saddened...BUT, guess what...Blanche, Rose, & Sophia carried on. The 1st episode started off a little sad. It all begins with the remaining Golden Girls packing up the house because it was Sold! They all are moving to Southbeach into a hotel that they decided to purchase. With Blanche mostly running the front entrance, Rose as the maid, & Sophia (along with Cheech) as the cooks, the zany hotel gets a good taste of the Golden Girls! The show wasn't terrible by all means...actually it was nice to be with the girls again. Where it went wrong was to many story-lines in each show. It was almost to busy! The better parts of the show are (few & far in between) when the girls are actually together to discuss the problems over cheesecake. As much as I want this to be perfect (like the Golden Girls) it's not. Dorthy is a BIG part that is missing...even bringing her on a couple of episodes towards the end wasn't enough to save the show. The Golden Girls will always be remembered as a WONDERFUL show. I think only the die-hard fans (like myself) will remember this one though. Z. 1-10 (9)
