'My Big Fat Greek Wedding' is, simply, good. I've known of this movie's title for as long as I can remember, though didn't know a single jot about anything else. Of course, the title is all you really need as you can connect the dots from there. It's chucklesome viewing, I liked it. Nia Vardalos is the star of the 90', but Michael Constantine puts in a standout performance as well. Lainie Kazan is the best of the rest. John Corbett's Ian character isn't fully fleshed out, I didn't hold as much interest as I feel like I should have; I'm already forgetting about him. A film with sequels titled numerically... noice! Hopefully I'll enjoy them as much as I did this original.
