My Big Fat Greek Wedding 3 (2023)
Rating: 5.6
My Big Fat Greek Wedding 3 has none of the magic of the first film. Everything you love about that film… it’s missing here. It was a chore to get through. Completely unfunny and felt like it was trying way too hard…. but never did enough to justify its existence. I never bought into it. Unfortunately seems to be due to a lack of experience behind and in front of the camera… acting, editing, cinematography are all especially (and noticeably) flawed. Feels like the type of movie you put on in the background as you do chores on a Monday afternoon. I was just so bored. It’s not good.
*** No full review as I am taking a break... so please enjoy this extended video review***
