The two actors who were hilarious and had the best performances in the film were Martin and Maria Vacratsis, who played Theia Freida. This was a reference to the first film because in that film she shared a story about a lump in the back of her neck. The film contains some funny scenes when the characters are in Greece, such as Toula’s brother Nick Portokalos, played by Louis Mandylor, grooming himself at the table while the family awkwardly stares at him.Īnother funny scene was when Toula’s Aunt Voula, played by Andrea Martin, told a random story about a bone in her hip that stuck out like a toothpick.

It suited the film’s beautiful Greek scenery and architecture wonderfully. The soundtrack that was played throughout the film was great to listen to because of its incorporation of traditional Greek instrumentation. The beginning of the film was my favorite part because of the upbeat Greek music playing as it showed flashback pictures of Toula’s family members from the first and second films.

The film takes place in Greece.Ĭompared to the first and second films of the franchise, “My Big Fat Greek Wedding 3” is different because Michael Constantine, who portrayed Toula’s father Gus Portokalos, passed away in 2021 and is not physically featured in the film, except in pictures and his urn.

“My Big Fat Greek Wedding 3” is written and directed by Nia Vardalos, who portrays Toula Portokalos, the main character of the film. The film was released in theaters on Sept.
