Mundos Opostos

Christoforos Papakaliatis is a very talented Greek director who has made some of the most amazing series, including Maestro in Blue, of course. However, when it comes to movies none of his work really stands out. The same applies to Worlds Apart. The cast is excellent, cinematography too, the music is good, great attention to every detail (all typical traits of a perfectionist like Papakaliatis) but the plot is simply lackluster. In many instances, it is quite unrealistic, cliche and based on way too many "coincidences". Overall, it is an enjoyable movie to watch but it is neither thought or emotion provoking.

I could not expect anything less from Christoforos Papakaliatis! Excellent performances,realistic dialogs and a touch of Greek magic even through difficult yet realistic situations.All three stories kept you waiting anxiously for the conclusion.You get a fairly good picture of how economical crisis has affected different age groups all through a love story. I have to mention the music that gives a more dramatic aspect to every scene. Finally the beautiful scenery of Plaka makes you fall in love with Greece and forget, even if for a moment,all the everyday trouble Greek people go through everyday. I highly recommend it to everyone-Greek or not.

One can see clearly negative reviews are by fascists and nationalists portrayed in this movie. Yes the migration problem was over exaggerated, but still a fantastic movie.

Not the most profound of movies, but it's good nevertheless. Excellent performances throughout, even though the storyline feels a bit one dimensional at times. A little girl's bicycle at the end scene is heartbreaking.

I felt quite heavy watching the movie. I don't understand politics, in fact everything about Greece is Greek to me as of today. The story reminded me of "A boy in stripped pajamas" reinforcing my belief that almost always some one innocent has to pay for the wrong deeds of not so innocent. And all such acts against innocent people get registered in the vibrations of the universe - whether being done rightfully or wrongfully. No wrong that is done persistently to a weaker group/ person and stays hidden from the eyes of the public (that can correct that wrong), is not given back to the universe- it always returns to the universe. That simple truth was very stressed in the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ. We cannot justify wrongs to the innocent but usually that is the way for many to behave and for universal vibrations to respond. The movie "A Boy In Stripped Pajamas" had shaken me after I had completed the movie. "Worlds Apart" movie not so much but I liked the love stories.
