Alter Ego

It could be a romantic TV advertisement for a chocolate with duration not more than 2min. An expensive production for the Greek standards though and the presence of the actor Al. Logothetis worth mentioned.

I was never a Sakis Rouvas fan,so I really didn't care about this movie. But,I do have a girlfriend,and she was dying to see it,so... I'm 26 years old,and when I left the theatre,I was shocked to realize that what people expected from this movie,had nothing to do with the actual film. This film is not about Sakis-it's about a troubled person to which we can all relate to. The story,follows a very interesting road of comedy and drama.Although the people in the theatre lauphed a lot,when the film was over I saw many eyes turned red from crying-and not only on women! The cast is incredible.You forget that the guy who's on screen is Sakis-that guy can really act. The rest of the group are amazing as well,giving life to every character. Danai Skiadi is the perfect 'alter ego' for the protagonist here,and their chemistry is really interesting. The director is nothing like your typical Greek director.He handles close-ups and wide shots like a true professional(that's not something you see often in Greek cinema). However,I was most impressed from the story.A review of the movie and the trailers made me believe that the movie is just about a guy who's in love with two chicks-but that's only 10% of the movie.There's a big twist in the film,which I ain't gonna spoil to you,and many interesting subjects.The film will give you a big lesson by the time it's over. From now on,I'm going to think of this as easily the most misunderstood Greek film.People think that it sucks,as I did as well,but it's just the opposite.You are going to be very,very surprised.

Without a script, without effects, without actors, without a director, Without a single scene with only a nice scene the naked scene of the protagonist, God is awful. Congratulations Sakis

The whole thing as a pure joke, this was a class B-Movie (if not worst.. cause I actually enjoy many b-movies.. I didn't liked this one at all)

Scenario: nothing incredible to keep you tens, you already know what's going to happen and in the end of the movie you try to tell yourself that you didn't lost 90mn of your life. You don't get tied with the characters, and you may ask yourself after the movie if you really watched something.

Acting: awful, there is no acting skills there, only Mairi Lousi was funny in my humble opinion as well as Dimitris Kouroubalis. A special worst mention goes to Doretta Papadimitriou who should quit acting. Sakis Rouvas acting was OK for a singer, actually he played a lot better than many of those so called actors playing in the movie, there was some nice scenes where he played well but the overall acting wasn't good enough to feel the character he was playing.

Editing: bad, there are some really weird cuts and continuity problems. The whole movie looks like a continuous video clip.

The only thing good in the movie was the colors, some scenes was beautiful to look at, and the soundtrack was nice. There was some funny parts like where Sakis has to clean the fish or when Dimitris Kouroubalis was playing the crazy Greek lover. But it was not enough to make this movie interesting.

I would -except if you really are curious and want to see Sakis'acting- advise you to avoid this movie. Watch a Greek movie with meaning like "Politiki kouzina" if you really want to see something useful and feel the story, "Loukoumades me meli" was nice too, but if you are not sure to watch this movie then avoid it.

This is because this is a film that has nothing to show us. Rouvas is good for a pop star (i'm not a pop music fan) but not for an actor. The plot is boring and has nothing new to give us, if it wasn't Rouvas this film wouldn't exist. After 40 minutes you start to get bored and the plot is so slow... Anyway, nothing special in this film, nothing new and nothing that will make you want to see it. But it's not a complete waste, if you are a fan of Rouvas you probably had already seen it. Not that bad though. A rock band (there is nothing "rock" in their music) touring, the love life of their front-man, and a band-mate dead from drugs it maybe a good scenario for some but the movie doesn't help it. Only for fans of Rouvas!
