Toula Portokalos (Nia Vardalos) is an unmarried thirty-year-old who lives in Chicago and works in her father's Greek restaurant. When she meets and falls for high school teacher Ian Miller (John Corbett), a quick makeover and some careful manoeuvring is all it takes for the pair to start dating.

This film got great ratings for a film that suprisingly didn't cost that much. How they they kept the costs that low is hard to believe when you see the amount of food on the sets. I took my Greek Cypriot Mother to the Pictures to see this film (The last time she went was 1970), and she found it absolutely hilarious as did I and my sister. The Greek Father in the film is absolute class, he had me in stitches for the whole film. A definate must see although you will find that people with a Mediteranean background of friends from that part of the world will find it funnier as they will definately know people in their every day lives that will resemble some of the characters. Great film, well worth watching. The type of film that you could watch again and again.

I saw My Big Fat Greek Wedding at the cinema sitting next to this big group of Greek women, which definitely added to the experience. They were falling on the floor laughing. It was hysterical. I loved the movie. It was a very accurate portrayal of my Greek friends and their families, and I've always had a bit of a thing for John Corbett. On the whole the movie is a tongue in cheek look at growing up Greek. Even if you aren't, it's a great film to watch with the girls, and perhaps a tub of icecream.

My Big Fat Greek Wedding is a charming film about a less than perfect, everyday women(called Toula Portokalos played by Nia Vardalos) who is surrounded by the new youth and mordern city of Chicargo, America. But her VERY Greek family try to hide her away from it all.as quoted in the film by toulas father costas " there are two types of people in this world, Greeks and everybody else who wishes they were Greek!" Toula falls in love with an non-greek. strictly off limits in the world of the portokalos family! As well as being a romantic film its also a very funny comedy! usualy picking out all the outragous antics of the greek youngsters.Its a happyily ever after film ...or is it? i only wish there was a sequal!
