Critics' Reviews

80
LOS ANGELES TIMES: Kevin Thomas
The result is pure, unabashed and unpretentious entertainment of a sort once a staple of the movies but now rare.Read Full Review »
75
Boston Globe: Wesley Morris
The movie's queer delight is contagious. You'll exit lip-synching.Read Full Review »
67
ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY: Owen Gleiberman
The surprise -- and intermittent delight -- of Connie and Carla is the way that it taps into the everybody-is-a-star passion of the new sing-along culture.Read Full Review »
63
Philadelphia Inquirer: Carrie Rickey
The chief appeal of this affectionate story is its embrace of those who are not thinner, richer and more glamorous than the moviegoers.Read Full Review »
50
Washington Post: Michael O'Sullivan
Broad and cheesy, yet it is not utterly without a kind of junk-food appeal.Read Full Review »

Salon.com: Stephanie Zacharek
Isn't really a movie but a blatant girls' night out vehicle.Read Full Review »

The New York Times: Stephen Holden
As a female vocal duo, their performances are passable, if a little dull and lacking in any sense of camp exaggeration.Read Full Review »

CHICAGO SUN-TIMES: Roger Ebert
Plays like a genial amateur theatrical, the kind of production where you'd like it more if you were friends with the cast. The plot is creaky, the jokes are laborious, and total implausibility is not considered the slightest problem.Read Full Review »

USA Today: Claudia Puig
Vardalos' comedic style is old-fashioned in the worst way; her humor is stodgier than the most retro Catskills laughmeister.Read Full Review »
30
Washington Post: Phillip Kennicott
The humor is rigorously unoriginal and it all feels a bit like minstrelsy, a freakish, ritualistic nod to things your grandfather might have found funny.Read Full Review »
