My Big Fat Greek Wedding (the movie, that is)

Recommended Posts

Laura and I went to see this movie last night and really enjoyed it. I guess it has been out for quite awhile, and it is doing very well. There were a lot of people in the theater (~85% full) for the 9pm movie.

I thought the whole concept was very believable and it was great to see the conservative American family counteract with the excentric Greek family who is very patriotic for their country.

Anyway, if you are looking for a good movie to see for guys and girls, this would be the one. It is rated PG and is still extremely funny.

I recommend it. :)

Yes, I agree with you that it is great. Everyone in my family who saw it, from my 13 year old daughter to my 86 year old grandmother loved it also. I know from the title that it sounds kind of sappy for most of the guys, but it's actually very funny. It's made a killing at the box office because I think it's been showing for about 6 months now and it is still in the top 10.

I married into a Greek family, we haven't seen it yet, though. We have been told by family members, to see it, it is soooo true and funny. So I guess we will have to see it too.

I heard these same complimentary comments about Four Weddings & A Funeral and Bridget Jones' Diary. When I watched them I didn't find them that funny. Looks like it's one for me to wait until it shows on Digi-Sat.:|

Had a friend recommend it to us with the caveat that it was, "really good except for all that pre-marital sex stuff". Yes, people like that still exist. Her other two favorite movies of the year were "Lilo and Stitch" and "Shrek". See a pattern?

Of course, I didn't explain to her that if you don't intend to get married, it isn't actually pre-marital sex.
Shit happens. And it usually happens because of physics.

That was a very good movie. My boyfriend and I went and saw it and thought that it was very cool that they didnt have the "they arent going to get married cause of some lie or secret " twist that most movies have.
