Staying true to its predecessors from 2002 and 2016, "My Big Fat Greek Wedding 3" delivers a feel-good experience. The Porto Carlos family is all set for a Greek adventure, having received an invitation to a reunion in their father's ancestral village. Before his passing, Gus, Toulouse's father, entrusted her with a journal to share with his old pals. The family's journey is not just about the reunion but also a tribute to Gus's legacy. Upon their arrival at Athens Airport, the enthusiastic town mayor, Victory Malena Kacelou, greets them. Their transportation? An old truck with Toulouse at the wheel. The village, however, presents an eerie emptiness, with a mysterious woman making frequent appearances. Toulouse (Neo Vidalos) and her husband Ian John Corbett's daughter, Paris, reconnects with Aristotle, someone she had previously distanced herself from. The reason behind their past disconnect is unveiled as the story progresses. Family secrets await Toulouse and her brother Nick, with Nick's peculiar grooming habits being a point of humor. Filmed predominantly in Athens and Kourfou, the movie is bound to resonate with the Australian Greek audience. Writer and director Neo Vidalos masterfully blends cultural humor into the narrative. The film's visual appeal is undeniable, showcasing the beauty of Greece. Characters like Aunt Vula, played by Andrea Martin, and Mayor Malena Cacillou stand out with their vibrant performances. While "My Big Fat Greek Wedding 3" has moments reminiscent of a sitcom, it retains the charm that has made the series beloved by fans. Alex First's rating? A solid 6 out of 10.
