There's not an ounce of cynicism here, and I think audiences might respond to the sweet open heartedness of Vardalos and company, but there isn't a lot of originality here either.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Feb 3, 2021

This movie was not even a movie.

| Apr 30, 2020

It was a mild waste of time.

| Apr 30, 2020

It's saccharine, unfunny, and leaves one with the feeling that purchasing sentiment is worse than saying nothing at all.

| Apr 3, 2020

Overall, My Big Greek Wedding 2 is all hearts and sentiment but the rehashed humour and disappointing character development forms an ultimately lacklustre sequel.

| Original Score: 2.5/5 | Nov 18, 2019

It's cute but not a great film.

| Oct 16, 2019

It kind of broke my heart.

| Original Score: F | Apr 13, 2019

My Big Fat Greek Wedding 2 is a pure family comedy. [Full Review in Spanish]

| Feb 14, 2019

It feels like a desperate cash grab, with a terrible premise and some really jaw-droppingly bad attempts at comedic sequences.

| Original Score: F | Jan 15, 2019

Again, feel free to grab another baklava, but the aftertaste of this wedding calls for an immediate annulment from this bouncy, bickering bunch.

| Original Score: 2/4 | Nov 9, 2018

There are a couple of genuine chuckles here and there, but what the film ultimately lacks are the endearing qualities and surprisingly funny and heartwarming moments that made the first one such a hit.

| Original Score: 2.5/5 | Sep 1, 2018

As a comedy, the film is great. None of the jokes will have you rolling in the aisles, but they are funny and easy to digest.

| Original Score: 7/10 | Aug 30, 2018

MBFGW2 is like going to a Greek restaurant and ordering a sleeve of unsalted saltines.

| Aug 27, 2018

I feel pretty certain that, objectively, My Big Fat Greek Wedding 2 was a very bad movie.

| Jun 13, 2018

The film has all the charisma of a close relative whose quirks would otherwise been gross and grating had you not lived with him for the past few years.

| Apr 30, 2018

Virtually every character is back. And the familiar cast appears to be having a wonderful time. The critics who are finding fault with My Big Fat Greek Wedding 2 aren't exactly wrong. But, I think they're missing the point.

| Original Score: 7/10 | Dec 3, 2017

As an ensemble comedy, it somewhat works. But the jokes could have been more in number. Pass the spanakopita, please.

| Original Score: 2.5/5 | Nov 7, 2017

It's almost ironic that Vardalos' first film dealt with establishing her identity within her family unit, as this film can't find its identity - or provide a hilarious plot.

| Original Score: 2.5/5 | Nov 5, 2017

Fans of the original -- myself included -- are going to be so disappointed because My Big Fat Greek Wedding 2 is just awful.

| Original Score: 1/5 | Oct 24, 2017

My Big Fat Greek Wedding 2 could have been so much more than a reunion. It could have offered us the chance to celebrate the progression of family and culture in the face of a brave new world.
