Connie and Carla Reviews
It's not really that complicated. Connie and Carla flounders because while men dressing up as women is funny, women dressing up as men is not.

The plot is nothing new; not much here for teens.

For audiences who adored "My Big Fat Greek Wedding," Nia Vardalos' follow up movie (she wrote both scripts) will come as a big fat letdown.

The movie does offer some genuine guffaws as it trips over itself to be all things to all people.
Full Review | Original Score: 1.5/4 | Sep 11, 2006
Like an episode of particularly bad network television, this movie hasn't a clue as to how to do anything that doesn't feel contrived or unoriginal.
| Original Score: 1.5/4 | Dec 9, 2005
muitos espectadores talvez julguem melhor economizar o dinheiro do ingresso do cinema, utilizando-o para comprar o CD do filme.
| Original Score: 2/5 | Aug 13, 2004
Vardalos is a much better actress than she is a writer, and the patchy script has a desperate, thrown-together feeling to it, as if she had to scramble to come up with something after Wedding's gargantuan success.

Some like it lukewarm? Well, they're welcome to it.
| Original Score: 1/5 | Aug 5, 2004
| Original Score: 3/5 | Jun 12, 2004
A good-natured but self-indulgent camp comedy lacking in originality, character and comic timing.
| Original Score: 2/5 | Jun 11, 2004
Full marks for trying a radical change of direction, and nul points for inflicting the ghastly mess on us

There's some fun to be had here, but not quite enough, and the film is burdened by its tired message that drag queens are human beings too.
| Original Score: 2/5 | Jun 8, 2004
Plays like a bargain basement Some Like It Hot.

If you find meticulously staged, passionately sung anthems about love, beauty, truth, and joy to be tiresome, then don't drop a dime on this film. Otherwise GO!
| Original Score: 4/5 | May 18, 2004
What Connie and Carla has to teach us about gay people.

| Original Score: 2/5 | May 2, 2004
The film's real joy comes in its camp performance pieces, which outrageously poke fun at the guilty pleasures of musical theatre.
| Original Score: 4/5 | May 1, 2004
"Big Fat Greek Wedding's" huge success was a surprise to me and to Hollywood. It won't have the mass appeal and will make only a fraction of the dough-but this film I get.
| Original Score: B+ | Apr 26, 2004
Nia Vardalos should have cut right to the chase and named the characters Lucy and Ethel.
| Original Score: C+ | Apr 24, 2004
