Seriously do not waste your money seeing this in theaters. The jokes fall flat, the plot is extremely weak, and the editing is so uncomfortable.
Unfortunately, Nia Vardalos is one of the worst actors in this movie, and relying on better character actors like Andrea Martin does not save this film.
The climax where the reunion mixes with the wedding doesn't really make any sense and falls flat. Even the quest of getting her father's journal to his childhood friends seems so random, as if Nia just picked a random object from her father. There was no explanation even given to the friends as to why her father wanted them to have this journal. You can't even chalk it up to there being some magical, unspoken understanding. It's just an awkward moment,
Sad that the original movie is such a classic, and the sequels have been so terrible.
