My Big Fat Greek Wedding 2

[snowysnowstorms]

Loved this! I watched the first film while I was still in school and really enjoyed watching this too, it didn't let me down at all.

Also found it fun as I have a big fat foreign (although not Greek) family and we are, um, close - so I'm looking forward to watching both films with my partner. I wouldn't be surprised if it feels a bit too real for him.

Anyone else a Portokalos fan?

I loved the first one, fx the 2nd one is just aa good :)

I loved the original film. I'm dragging DH out to see the sequel ASAP.

Oh dear, I hated it and found it borderline offensive!

My sister and I took my DD to see it on Friday night. There were a couple of bits which made me cover DD's eyes, but apart from that, we all thought it was brilliant. My DS (who's 18) wants to go and see it too.

"hey dad, I want to better myself"
"emotional blackmail"
"don't worry I am a woman I rule this man, he is stupid I will manipulate him"

"you can work for auntie!"
"hey dad here are some drawings"
"......."

"I wanted to better myself and now I have no other ambitions but to work in the family business and live in the family home."
"I know nothing about you except you are Greek"
"Yeah that's pretty much it."
"Marry me!"
"Ok I will marry you."
"You must conform to Greekness"
"Ok."

"Happy wedding day! Here's a house right next door. YOU WILL NEVER LEAVE!"

Great movie! /s

(obviously chatting about the first movie, second looks crap too)

The reviews are almost universally bad. It only got a 28% RT rating.

I liked to first movie. It was just a guilty pelasure. I would like to see the second even if it's bad. I wanna be judge in this case ;)
