Reviews for Connie and Carla
It's a silly movie, and the jokes are obvious and tired, but Vardalos and Collette have an immensely appealing screen presence, and the musical numbers are fun to watch.

Pleasurable but uneven.

This dreary little misfire is as stale as the cabaret routines that it tries to both make sport of and to glamorize

[An] uneven and overly busy comedy.
04/16/04
A good-natured but self-indulgent camp comedy lacking in originality, character and comic timing.

There doesn’t seem to be much here that comedy director Michael Lembeck could save; it's a lopsided script laced with flat-footed humor and lazy characterization.
04/21/04
[A] good-hearted little comedy that’s likely to please the legions of fans who enjoyed Vardalos in her big fat prior success.

I wanted to sing along with Connie and Carla, just like many of their adoring fans in this fun gender-bending musical.

A penny-dreadful imitation of one of Hollywood's most inimitable comedies.

Connie and Carla may not be as exciting as a Greek wedding, but it's still worth reserving a table up front.

Top Critic“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.

An amiable tribute to classic gender-bending farces such as Some Like It Hot and Victor/Victoria.

Top CriticRip off? We say who cares - it makes you laugh, you'll want to sing along - and in the perfect world you would be able to eat dinner while you watch.

Timid, mousy and humorless.
