An unbelievably unfunny, amateurish, badly casted, acted and directed adaptation of the original. It's sad how low modern Greek cinema and television have sunk. A complete train wreck.

I wonder whether the person who wrote the 2009 review is a member of the "production" company or just has REALLY bad taste.

edit: IMDb has a 10 line minimum length for reviews, but I really don't want to waste anymore of my time writing about this abomination. The sad truth, though, is that the majority of Greek films and TV series are cringe worthy, like this movie. What's even sadder, is that there still exists an audience for stuff like this. Here's hoping for the much needed betterment of Greece's arts, culture and political life.

...even by modern Greek cinema standards.

Childish and pompous dialogue, forced situations, mostly amateur "acting".

Makes you wonder why they even bother making this. (I'm guessing to cash in from the original's heritage and to promote certain "celebrities".) Even the previous installment (Sirines sto Egeo) was better than this, and that says A LOT.

Avoid at all costs but do watch the original "Loufa kai Parallagi" from 1984 (in which G. Kimoulis, amongst others, delivered a great performance; why he accepted to be a part of the modern adaptation is beyond me. Money problems, maybe?)

But what's even sadder (and alarming), is the fact that some people actually found this movie funny, at least according to a couple of (underaged?) reviewers here. As for the IMDb score, I'm pretty sure that most of the positive ratings originate from the people that were actually involved in the film itself.
