When I saw the previews for "Love's Greek to Me," I was very excited to watch it. I had no idea that Greece was so beautiful! The scenery, the buildings, everything! I was hoping that the movie would be good, too. But it wasn't. The movie had a slow start. I was hoping that it would get better. But it didn't. The actors were not very good or believable, except for the lady who played the lead actor's mother. She was excellent! But she was the only one. This movie is definitely a dud. It's a huge disappointment. But the scenery is definitely not a disappointment. I recommend watching the movie for the scenery, not for the acting or the story.
I gave this movie 5 stars for the scenery alone.

Some of the acting here is super-cringey - I'm looking at you, Marina Sirtis - but, setting that aside, Hallmark has done a sensational job of showcasing the beauty of Greek.
This might be their best on-location movie ever, at least as far as the setting goes. You almost forget about the plot - a cliched one, where Sirtis is the comically overbearing mother in law wanting to control every single facet of her son's wedding, bridezilla in this case is mother-in-law-zilla! - because of the scenery.
Plus, Torrey DeVitto is a delight. Not sure she's looked more radiant in a Hallmark movie. The costume department had her looking spectacular in every single scene.

I accidentally stumbled upon this movie whilst browsing a streaming site. Those following my blog, will know romantic comedies are not my favourite genre - mainly because I find them predictable. Although 'Love's Greek to me' is also every bit predictable, I actually enjoyed it more than I thought I would.
The film revolves around the relationship between Ilana and her Greek boyfriend Mike. When she finally goes to Greece for the first time (for a wedding) she meets Mike's family. Mike also plans to propose to Ilana. Mike's mother Athena is an overbearing character (making for an interesting and funny character in the process). It's all about tradition - GREEK tradition!
I loved the beautiful sights of Greece, making for beautiful cinematography. None of the characters were truly standout characters, but they were a lot of fun. I couldn't help but think the creators were somehow trying to make another 'My Big Fat Greek Wedding' (they even use reference to that film in this film!).
Despite ending up as predictable as I believed it would be, it was still a fun movie. Cheesy, but sweet.

Unlike most Hallmark movies, the romantic couple is already together from the start. So the entire drama comes down to planning a wedding, which to me shouldn't be a drama at all. I know people get a bit crazy about weddings, but a lot of it comes down to planning and random errands being run. That's not much to sustain a movie, so of course the writers chose to make the bride's mother in law a terror. In between moments of her being terrible, we get to watch the lead couple tasting wine and forcing out the most cringeworthy lines.
Unfortunately, this movie was not funny enough to carry the weight of such an overbearing mother in law. Who would marry into this mess? It was unpleasant to watch and made me want to find a more conventional Hallmark "meet and fall in love" movie without the annoying inlaws.

I was impressed by scenery in this movie as much or more than any other movie I can remember. It is so exotic and beautiful. There are a lot of opportunities to enjoy it.
The story is a little different than a lot of the boy-meet-girl-etc romances because the central couple is already together and their romance is only nominally central to the story. Torrey DeVitto's Ilana is the center of the story and all of her relationships. Her relationships with Athena and with Mike are the most dominant, but also her mother and Mike's sister.
The story is also simple and very predictable. You can see the ending developing a little at a time from early on. But the heart of this movie is just that- the heart and much of that goes back to Ilana. The tension in this movie is more emotional than dramatic.
For half the movie, Athena is beyond annoying as a Momzilla. Actually monster-in-law. Like so many of these movies a character has a major personality change towards the end and actually becomes interesting.
The acting is mostly good. I won't say either way about Marina Sirtis because I was so annoyed by Athena for so long, but the rest of the cast did a good job. DeVitto carries the emotional heart of the story quite well The dialog is ok. It is not terribly witty, but there are some moments that it delves into deeper emotions.
