My Big Fat Greek Wedding 3 Reviews

Heavy on coincidence and caricature, goat jokes can't make up for the lack of plot in this sentimental and contrived movie.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Jan 17, 2025

Don’t forget your “eating pants” and dancing shoes.

| Original Score: B- | Jul 6, 2024

Somehow, someway, in the summer of “Barbie” and “Oppenheimer,” which renewed the hope of film fans that quality cinema was fighting back, there’s now “My Big Fat Greek Wedding 3.” Alas, it’s the Trojan Horse of movies.

This movie is as successful as the sitcom spinoff they tried in the early 2000s, which means it was unsuccessful. I can’t really suggest going to see this; even with a few fun performances, it just wasn’t enough to not feel like a complete waste of time.

| Original Score: D | Oct 5, 2023

It's very well-intentioned, but it doesn't hit the notes and ends up feeling like a medley of greatest hits from the first two.

Overall the vibe is feelgood - Mamma Mia! minus the Abba songs - helped along by jokes as cheesy as barrel-aged feta.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Sep 29, 2023

Frida is wonderful. It may inspire newcomers to dive deep into Frida’s life and work; it may offer the familiar a delightful new perspective on the woman.

Much, in fact, is up in the air. The only grounded member of the clan is Aunt Voula (Andrea Martin) who has a great one-liner when you need it the most. She finds laughs even when Nia Vardalos wasn’t counting on them.

| Original Score: 1/4 | Sep 22, 2023

One trip to the well too many.

| Original Score: 5/10 | Sep 21, 2023

All you’re trying to do is recapture the magic and sadly My Big Fat Greek Wedding 3 just can’t find it.

| Sep 21, 2023

A satire can be both beautiful and witty at the same time, but it takes more than people screaming or bumping their heads to help the humor part land.

| Sep 19, 2023

Writer/director/star Nia Vardalos should have given My Big Fat Greek Wedding 3 the title My Big Fat Pathetic Excuse for a Movie Sequel. This dull, unfunny film drags down to embarrassing levels of stale jokes that would be rejected by amateur comedians.

Credit cinematographer Barry Peterson for making this an enticing Aegean travelogue but - as a feature film - it's a bit of a bittersweet disappointment, relying on cliche-riddled ethnic humor to sustain its lovably familiar, colorful characters.

| Original Score: 6/10 | Sep 16, 2023

I might be swimming against the tide here: I enjoyed this movie a lot.

| Sep 15, 2023

I was physically uncomfortable the whole way through, because this is just a fever dream of bad choices.

| Sep 15, 2023

While the latest effort is slightly better than the previous film, its still pretty miserable -- a pale imitation of the original that plays more like a travel ad for Greece than an actual feature film.

| Original Score: D- | Sep 15, 2023

Desperate to wring every last bit of charm and goodwill from its stale premise, this third installment in the 20-year-old comedy franchise is more content to rehash than refresh.

| Sep 15, 2023

As much presence and charisma as an olive oil commercial.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Sep 15, 2023

In spite of its third-film shortcomings, My Big Fat Greek Wedding 3 has some genuine laughs and a healthy dose of heart.

| Sep 15, 2023

There’s not an original idea in Ms Vardalos’ pretty head here, and it’s just a shame that in is her directorial debut she didn’t even have the courage to jettison the light comedy for the social commentary on the tip of her tongue.
