It's beyond belief how bad is this remake. Although it closely follows the context of the original movie, it constantly seems as if the actors just read through the dialogue, without any sentiment or feeling. The lines, although almost identical as in the original, do not produce any laughs at all. All actors seem to be out of place, as if there is no director present. Heavily disappointing effort.

This is a good remake of the 1962 movie. There was a proper selection of actors to their corresponding roles. There were some funny moments, involving both funny scripts and funny actions. To top up, the movie was enriched with beautiful scenery from the island of Poros and a bit of choreography.

In sort, the movie was a replica of the the old one, reproduced with new technology and new actors. The scenery, the acting, the script and the plot were all reminding of the "golden era" of Greek cinema back in 60's and 70's. The new actors were even trying to mimic the gestures and the way of acting of the old ones!! Since the production was supported by the same company as the old movie, probably that was deliberate.

Although, I believe that some scenes could have been directed in a better way. overall I think that was a funny comedy and a good opportunity of the young to discover the all-time classics of the Greek cinema!
