"What If" is a parallel drama romance movie in which we watch a man who at a certain moment of his life he has to choose a path that will change his life forever. He has a female German Shepherd that wants to be taken out one night. The choice is very simple, if he goes out that night he will meet the love of his life and if he stays in he will not meet her.

I liked this movie because it's a good greek movie that despite the low budget and the difficulties, Christopher Papakaliatis succeed in presenting a simple good movie. At this point, it has to be mentioned that the plot we have already seen it in the movie "Sliding Doors" with Gwyneth Paltrow so, it was not a surprise. I liked the interpretations of Marina Kalogirou who played Hristina and Christopher Papakaliatis who played Dimitris. The direction which was made also from Christopher Papakaliatis it can be considered very good if we compare it with other greek movies.

Finally, I have to say that "What If" is an average movie with no many surprises and also a medium plot. It's not something extraordinary or something that we haven't seen before, it has a simple plot with some good interpretations and an average written script. If you want to watch this movie just don't expect much from it and don't have high expectations or hopes because for the greek standards is considered a good movie but in general is just another greek average movie.

Seriously underrated film.

The best film I've watched in a long time.

Everyone must witness this! The characters, narration and cinematography superbly told this clever and engaging story.

It will make you laugh and cry at the same time.

Greek films are known for being witty and entertaining but this goes a step further for the Greek film industry.

This should be a guaranteed Oscar win. It's about time this Greek film genius is recognised.

It will have you addicted and on the edge of your seat from start to end.

Seriously don't miss out seeing this beautiful film. Your life would be better for it.

Watch it now!

Well,i have seen also other projects of Papakaliatis and i must admit that he is truly talented in cinematography,montage,directing,really sparkling up all hiς characters an always tend to create great and memorable films. In this movie is doing again the same,the beautiful same,he has great photography of Plaka Athens,an interesting story of parallel universes and also an original one,a speed directing with Hollywood touches just to remind us of how he likes to copy/paste the all American great romance movies,the bonus material for sure is the reference to an original and classical romance story,a great Greek comedy called "Well the woman to be afraid of man" which is a phrase from Orthodox Greek weddings. The two stars Kontou and Konstantinou really steals our hearts with their heart full performances. The only disadvantage i believe is,once more,the of papakaliatis to be also the start of ALL of his movies. Fail for sure cause finally he must understand that he is a terrible actor,a terrible one. He is real a great talent but really christoforos,go along with it,you can do everything and i personally respect you for that but YOU CAN NOT ACT. Never the less a great effort of Greek cinema,you have my 7 out of 10 which could be even higher if he not had the obsession of doing EVERYTHING in his movies. Watch it!

Being a Greek myself i must say i'm pretty disappointed by Greece's efforts towards the seventh art the last couple of decades. Unfortunately Greece's golden age, in my opinion, stopped at late 70's to early 80's. However this, i must say, is a sparkle in the mud of the industry. Christoforos Papakaliatis being a director, writer and leading actor did a fine job being all three of them. He conducted a modern movie touching sensitive matters in Greece nowadays, like unemployment does, mixing them with the never aging love cliché. What matters in the end are the emotions you have leaving the movie, and those were strong.

a beautiful film. that is its fundamental virtue. and the motif for ignore the few errors. image, montage, music, story, the explore of different universes, the manner to create the lead characters, the splendid science to transform a not complicated story in a lovely film. a film with many references to contemporary problems and , in same measure, delicate analysis of a couple life in two interesting art of detail. a film about life, choices, happiness and Greece. the last thing, in strange way, does its message universal. but its beauty is not only artistic. it has the rare gift to become a form of experience. because it reminds small details from every viewer 's life. and that detail does it convincing at all.
