XoWizIama Excellent adaptation.

Lancoor A very feeble attempt at affirmatie action

Glucedee It's hard to see any effort in the film. There's no comedy to speak of, no real drama and, worst of all.

ChanFamous I wanted to like it more than I actually did... But much of the humor totally escaped me and I walked out only mildly impressed.

brian-ogrady Saw this last night - couldn't finish it. I like rom com's and I understand they can be contrived but this was just too awkward and clumsily written. I couldn't get over how stiff the acting was by the male lead - it's not often you notice bad acting and I had to look up the movie online (that's what got me here) and then read the back story that they wrote the movie and are actually married. That explains it. No way he would have gotten a callback if he had auditioned. Sorry but his acting really ruined it for me. B

Jack Vasen This was an enjoyable, cute and funny movie. Not the greatest, but fun enough. I'm sure that some will compare this to My Big Fat Greek Wedding and some comparisons are apt.Maria is beautiful, and charming and extremely quirky. And she snores. Jack is one of those earthy guys who doesn't let anything go by without making a joke. Maria's family is very traditional. Her father would be tough on any man.This movie is about the two falling in love, and about trying to make it work in a family where everything is stacked against Jack from the start. The two have so many differences that you would think they would be better off with someone else.There are funny moments, and sweet moments.

niutta-enrico A nice comedy, fresh, inspired, full of interesting ideas, with good dialogue (and small budget). You might not recognize the exteriors because it's not US but Canada (Toronto).And the Actors playing the two main characters (Jack and Maria) are Canadians too. They also wrote the script and produced the movie, together, and truly are husband and wife in real life. Which is nice and interesting at the same time. As it is movie's flash-forward structure, which adds to production's overall quality and originality. Many good actors help to keep the attention high, starting from the great Joaquin de Almeida (who really is Portuguese) to Vik Sahay. Singer Nelly Furtado plays a nice cameo (Nelia: Maria's favorite cousin…) and the musical score includes one piece I like and it's poorly known: 'Ticket to Love' from the Hawaiian band 'Goodbye Elliott'. Enjoy.

garyhigh Growing up close to a lot of Portuguese families it felt so real, they are so funny and from the heart. Excellent must see movie. It was a really good movie, kept me laughing through the whole thing. Such good acting and humor very well done. Thank you for a great movie. When it was done I met the actress, and actor very nice people very well done. I would definitely go to another one of there movies.It was really nice to walk out of theater and see them there to talk us and see what we thought of the movie, great to have gotten a picture with them. It would be great to be able to keep track on how well they do in ratings. People really need to give it a chance you will not regret it. Super funny and very surreal.
