Tis kakomoiras

An excellent comedy for Greek speakers. Chatzichristos was known among the Greek actors for his incredible ability to improvise; sometimes to such an extent that it was hard for his colleagues to follow up, especially on stage. "Tis Kakomoiras" gave him the opportunity to unfold his talent, since it is essentially a character comedy based on the leading role of Zikos, which he assumed. Zikos is a countryman who moves to the capital and there, among others, he falls in love with a young girl who lives in the same neighborhood. There are numerous funny scenes in the movie, but what really makes it such a successful comedy is the "ability" of Zikos to twist the Greek language. He comes up with numerous new words and phrases which are absolutely hilarious. The rest of the cast performs exquisitely as well (especially Marika Nezer and Kostas Doukas). All in all a highly recommendable movie, but as mentioned above, mostly for those who can understand Greek.

This is quite simply the best comedy in the history of Greek cinema. Characters and plot are as simple as it gets. Yet Kostas Chatzichristos delivers, with the best comedic performance of Greek cinema history , with constant punchlines (every single moment) which are relatable and memorable until this very day. To summ up : HANDS DOWN THE BEST COMEDY GREEK CINEMA HAS EVER PRODUCED!!!

Including Nezer,Doukas,Rizos and Fermas.Nice music and lines dleivering from Hatzihristos who has excellent chemistry with his boss Doukas.A must see for lovers of old greek cinema and not only.

Imagine yourself in Athens nearly 50 years ago, in a peaceful neighborhood where the most important thing is the man's word of honor and everybody's dream is to find a legitimate way to escape of the financial and social misery! Even in our times a "good marriage" is such a way, despite the fact that in many cases people actually don't fit, especially when love is absent! Legendary actor Kostas Hatzihristos is Zikos who works in a local mini market of that time and makes strong social criticism with the best lines ever written for an actor in a comedy leading role! Of course, the central theme of the plot is Zikos' old boss who is trying to "buy" with his money the love of a pretty but poor young girl! Zikos turns everything upside-down and gets for Kostas Hatzichristos a place in the pantheon of the Greek comedian actors! A truly great performance!

The best film of Chagichristos and one of the very best Greek Comedies ever, is a movie very simple and depends only in talent and dialogue, witch is very sufficient in this case. Very funny, but unfortunately, only for Greeks!
