Funny light for all no violence about love and close family big family ties and you see plenty of Greece.
I loved the scenes in Greece.
THE ABSOLUTE UNCONDITIONAL LOVE, THE ACCEPTANCE OF OTHERS NO MATTER WHAT, THE FOOD, THE MUSIC, THE SCENERY, AGAIN....THE LOVE.....THESE GREEKS RESOLVE FAMILY ISSUES IN MINUTES THAT TAKE OTHER PEOPLE MONTHS, YEARS, OR NEVER TO RESOLVE ....WHICH IS WHAT MAKES THIS A MUST SEE IF YOU WANT YOUR LIFE FILLED WITH LOVE.
My husband and I loved this movie. There were no car chases, explosions, aliens, or murders, thank heavens!!! We were pleased to see Nia Vardolos' love interest, Poupi Kakas, from "My Life in Ruins" added to the cast. Lots of laughs, beautiful scenery, and another amazing wedding made this a totally entertaining movie. We're thinking of seeing it again.
What was supposed to be a comedy didn't hit the mark. Boring, badly written, no story, just a lot of scenes put together that did not flow. An absolute waste of time. I have to ask why do it?
I have spent many times in Greece and found it easy to relate to the nuisances of the film having both parents who migrated here from Greece. It brought back wonderful memories of vacations and work in different parts of the country some of which were recognizable in the film. There were times when I felt a sadness because of the memories. On the other hand, it was hard for me to restrain myself from dancing in the theater to the music and the wonderful, gifted musicians. I was deeply touched by the honoring of the memory of Michael Constantine whose presence was brought to life in the film. Yes, we are loud and disruptive but have compassion in our hearts. Nia Vardalos reaches into the humanity of us from all ethnicities and human diversity. Thank you, Nia.
This movie tried so hard to be funny but was just dumb! The script was lacking & there were parts in the movie that didn’t even make sense. It was lame too how they added a token trans person. The only plus - it was a clean movie, no obscenities or nudity…. At best, watch it later on Netflix, I wouldn’t waste the money in the theater.
