Ratings and reviews

I am Greek (born & raised) and this movie is banal and inaccurate. In the wedding it replaced the blessed rice that the guests traditionally throw at the couple with money! It's UNTRUE and totally disrespectful of the holiness of the ceremony :( One guy even asked me if it's true what they say about Greek women and the lamb/tiger thing? So rude! I was so embarrassed I told him I didn't know as I haven't slept with any! Way to showcase our worst bits! Perpetuating ignoramuses! SOME Greek women ARE educated!!

Fun movie, growing up with Greek friends it just like the movie..well maybe a little exaggerated, but just a little.

Had me laughing several times. Well done Tom Hanks. Also good to see John Stamos in there too!
