Nia Vardalos’ fossilized sequel to a sequel still has its charms
– believe it or not, still the highest-grossing rom-com ever – mines bits from the original film like a fire-sale excavation of once-precious artifacts that have fossilized. The Hellenic origins of the entire English language, the wonders of Windex, the food-porn parade of Greek cuisine, the guaranteed exclamation of “Opa!” – it’s all there, ad nauseam.
The script penned by cast-headliner and director Nia Vardalos is insubstantial, politely speaking. In the rushed exposition of the opening scenes, you’re informed that stalwart daughter Toula promised Portokalos family patriarch Gus before his death that she would visit his birthplace in remote Greece for a reunion of the childhood friends he left behind decades before.
