Wow, Nia Vardalos acted very well. Helped by her tour team and hairy bus driver, she was very brilliant throughout the movie. The comedy was very lively and kept up the movie the whole time. Worth watching this than the other serious stuff. I enjoyed the movie a lot.
Yes, I recommend this movie.

Rom-com, yes. With a slightly different take, yes. Some have said that the movie starts slow & gets better. Agree, but it’s just the set-up, & doesn't take any longer than it needs. Some have said that the movie is predictable. The movie aims squarely at happy endings for all so there’s not much drama. People also do things that make sense from their perspective, so no surprises waiting to spring out. Now consider how odd that is. Indeed the movie's ending is very different from the rom-com formula of lovers somehow alienated who finally admit their love. There's no climax scene where one lover chases down the train or speaks over the public address system to a stadium of strangers. There’s a message in this movie & the love is natural.
Yes, I recommend this movie.

Once again Nia can make you love her while you want to smack her for being so down on herself. Mr. Kakas....hoowee he's gorgeous and Richard Dreyfuss, this may be the best performance since Goodbye Girl! The scenery and the history of Greece are worth their weight and I have already recommended it to several folks after seeing it last night.
Yes, I recommend this movie.

What could be worse than a tour bus. I have been on 6 tour buses in various countries over a lifetime. This was right on the money. A happy and romantic little film. Nia is in her element but Richard Dryfuss steals the show, at times. It may be a chick flick, but every tourist will see something familiar. Critics shmiticks, go see the movie.
Yes, I recommend this movie.

Nia Vardalos is charming in this romantic comedy set in the tourist territory of Greece. The tourists in her Group B are interesting characters, especially Richard Dreyfus (a wise-cracking widower)--who it was nice to see after some time away from the silver screen. Loved enjoying the beauty of Greece as the story and the tour progressed. Light-hearted material perfect for an escapist nite at the movies.

This was great - perfect to take my two fifteen year old girls to. Amazing that a movie these days a movie can go for a whole 1 1/2 wit no profanity or nudity. Ms. Vardolos takes us on a great tour of Greece while providing a simple sweet movie line that takes you out of the harsh realities of our times for a bit - even shows you how a young woman who has lost her job due to cutbacks moves forward with life!
Bravo!!!!

With this movie, if you don't laugh, you don't laugh. This is the feel good movie of the year. The "critics" have panned it, but I feel the audiences will have the last laugh.
Everyone in the theater I was in laughed throughout and applauded at the end. Apparently, the 'critics' don't have 'Kefi', or 'Mojo', or 'Spirit', or just can't laugh. Remember, they also panned "My Big Fat Greek Wedding". If I recall, a least a few million people saw that one and continue to see it and talk about it.
"My Life In Ruins" is simply fun, showing that a movie doesn't have to have bathroom humor to be funny.
Yes, I recommend this movie.

I loved the movie, great scenery as well as a fun filled evening to just sit back, relax and laugh. This movie did not have a big hype with pre-advertisements so this will be a movie that not everyone will know about but everyone should see. I am ready to go see it again to lift my spirits and laugh alot.

The scenery was fabulous. Having been to Greece...it remnded us of the wonderful times we had while exploring Greece. However, the movie was a little slow getting started and didn't always keep our interest...story a ltitle too familiar. Some of it was funny...but could have been funnier.
Just an average movie. We are ready for some good romantic comedies...bring Goldie Hawn back!
