Safe Sex

This is a hands down hilarious movie which only someone outside the Greek culture could find bad ... (see totally unfair comments from the other user). I wouldn't normally comment but seeing the ridiculous comments existing in this site, i had to bring some justice. Just see the number of people giving the highest marks! Maybe if you don't relate with modern Greek culture, then you won't appreciate the movie ... but if you do then you will become a fanatic fan! I don't have much to add, but i'm forced to have minimum 10 lines of comments. I don't understand why one should be forced to do so. It works against people spending the time and energy to give their opinion. So it hurts justice. So I will reiterate, it is a great movie, one of the funniest modern Greek movies, with an amazing mix of hilarious stories. Watch also Thiliki Eteria!

Although you get a bit of a TV feeling watching this film, it's been a long time since the Greek audience had a laugh like this watching a Greek movie or even a foreign one, as good comedies are hard to find these days.The film explores the sexual fears, problems and orientations of the modern Greeks heterosexuals, homosexuals and bisexuals in very witty way as it tells the story of many different couples that not all of them know each other but another couple is the connecting link between them.The only time they all meet is in the end.It's very difficult to bind together all those different and parallel stories without confusing the audience but the writers - also directors - of the film succeeded not to do so.

Safe sex in cold facts: 1st on the Greek Box office with 1000000 tickets. The most commercial greek movie in the history of greek cinematography. Countless well known greek actors in the cast. Two of the most popular tv directors. In greece this film had a massive hype which can only be compared to the hype of titanic!

Safe sex my view: First of all i would like to say before i write my view that i am a big fan of the cinema,i have stopped watching commercial movies a long time ago.I have attended many Movie festivals and the last one was a "Kenzi Mizoguchi" festival in greece which was truly superb.Then why did i watch the movie? My friends aren't like me they don't watch a movie that's not a blockbaster they are totally tasteless so we have like an unsaid agreement i watch movies they like,they watch movies i like. So it was their turn to choose and they chose "Safe Sex"... the weird thing was that i really wanted to see this movie cause i heard like many good comments of people who i trust. So we went out and barely found a ticket and bought some pop&corn and stuff and started watching the movie... I must say that i was at first impressed by the countless actors that apeared before me,later on i thought "Why do these people laugh?" this "comedy" had no good jokes but only COUNTLESS bad jokes when i say countless i mean that i doubt even if 20 seconds passed by without another tasteless joke was said.So i was wondering why didn't i laugh and i turned and saw my friends...."George" who's favorite movie is "Fame" laughed all the time (I wasn't suprised) "Tina" the only friend who has watched almost as many movies as i have seemed sceptical and then there was the Half movie Break,we spoke of what we thought firstly george said that it was possibly the best movie he has watched this year,than i said it was possibly the only movie i have seen that had no script,and then tina agreed with me and added that she hasn't seen worst jokes on a movie in her whole life! Our views wasn't changed until the end because nothing really changed. What i thought after watching the movie? It's a pity that good greek movies don't get more than a total of 1/10 the tickets this movie got! This movie doesn't mark a new age of good movies in greece but a new age of countless tasteless commercial movies in greece!

A movie that could really make a worldwide blockbuster if it is translated or subtitled. A really smart and intelligent use of the meaning of "safe sex". A must see for all Greeks, and an interesting point of view of the modern greek way of life. Even funnier than "Pedal Douce"

Greek cinematography passed through many troubles before approaching the modern era of comedies.Spyros Papadopoulos in the role of a company director brings the concept of sexual abuse on secretaries.Anna Panayiotopoulou portraits the jealous wife chasing her husband,a doctor.Pavlos Haikalis plays the hungry-for-telephone-sex guy. Many laughter moments can be created by a pleiad of actors.It's all about sex: homosexual scenes that try to disgust or entertain the viewer,watching Koulianou in a soap opera,a professor analyses the love of Aretousa for Erotokritos and the company director sends emails for seduction.Exchange of spouses, eye closing,sexual lust and a lot of hardly interrelated events constructing a mosaic of the sexual life in contemporary Athens.Papathanasiou and Reppas as directors try to build a comedy based heavily on script manipulation and fast change of dialogues.The result is an amusing movie.
