My Big Fat Greek Wedding 3

No review content available.

Extremely bad script writing. If you were to insert yourself into the film directly, you would look at the people speaking and say to them "what's wrong with you? No one speaks or behaves like that." The acting and the plot is very cringe-worthy. The film is designed for the tourism industry. All smiles and a glorious fantasy world that does not exist. Cheesy modern Greek pop songs are played in the movie that are not really popular at all among real Greek citizens. The film does not reflect what is going on in Greece in modern times with the collapse of the Greek society and our landscapes being ravaged with climate change. Clearly, a perfectly designed veil is installed to make the Americans feel good. As a Greek, this is painful to watch, and is really an insult. There are other ways to make a funny comedy based on the humor of the original, but this one involves the worst script writers that you can find. Comedic timing is pitiful. If Nia Vardalos thinks that this is a good film, then she is truly blind sighted. This is mostly a "hey, let's get the remaining gang back together and get a pay day with a new film since we've run out of money in our personal bank accounts."

Seriously do not waste your money seeing this in theaters. The jokes fall flat, the plot is extremely weak, and the editing is so uncomfortable. Unfortunately, Nia Vardalos is one of the worst actors in this movie, and relying on better character actors like Andrea Martin does not save this film. The climax where the reunion mixes with the wedding doesn't really make any sense and falls flat. Even the quest of getting her father's journal to his childhood friends seems so random, as if Nia just picked a random object from her father. There was no explanation even given to the friends as to why her father wanted them to have this journal. You can't even chalk it up to there being some magical, unspoken understanding. It's just an awkward moment, Sad that the original movie is such a classic, and the sequels have been so terrible.

I saw MBFGW 1 with my wife. I thought it was a fun movie. Story, actors, direction. All great. My wife saw MBFGW2. She enjoyed it almost as much as MBFGW1. But this one was a heartbreaking dissapointment for both of us. Wait to stream it at home if you can help it. I'd like to say there was at least something redeeming about it, I really would. But I almost feel sorry for the actors. Finding six hundred words to sink this movie is not something I can do without being hurtful. I won't do it. Since I'm not working at the moment I get to walk my dog about four times a day. What else. Oh. I watched the Laurel and Hardy movie--I'm over 600 words now.
