What Jack says.......
My Live In Ruins stars Nia Vardalos and Richard Dreyfuss. It is the story of a history teacher from America that moves to Greece and gets laid off from her job at the University. To make ends meet she takes a job as a tour guide.
Nia Vardalos has tried so hard to recapture the greatness of My Big Fat Greek Wedding that it is painful. She has truly done some terrible projects, but this one was probably her best effort since. She was cute and charming and everything we expect from her.
Richard Dreyfuss is disgusting and I can't stand him. He plays the slap stick comic relief in this movie and it doesn't work. It never does! He has been playing the old koot since What About Bob and it is getting old. This movie would have been much better minus him.
Now let's get to the part where the scary hairy bus driver turns out to be mega hot. I saw that one coming out of the gate. Alexis Georgoulis plays this character and he isn't really that hot, but for this movie he is pretty hot. He takes his shirt off, gets wet, and wears a suit. You know how I feel about that. He certainly kept my attention.
Overall, this movie was alright and definitely a good effort. It was absolutely better then I Hate valentines Day because that movie was barf O' rific!
I give this one a 5
A 5 REALLY?!?!?!?!? Nope sorry. This movie was a total bust. It was ridiculous and tired. Um maybe just try to be a person, instead of trying to be a freaking Greek woman every single second of the freaking day. God. Alright already. We get it. Yay be proud of your heritage, but seriously don't beat it like a dead horse. Enough.
I'd give it a 1. Poop!!!!
