Review

a pretty good flick which reminded me of “my big fat greek wedding.” it’s a comedy that isn’t intellectual, but isn’t “american pie” either. it addresses real issues, but just when you think it might get too heavy for it’s light hearted frame, it breaks in with another laugh. too often comedies like this try to inject heavy themes or feelings without regard to the tone of the rest of the film…this one, though, knows what it does best and never strays far from that. the protagonist’s teammate is really cute and that certainly doesn’t hurt the film watching experience.
