What was the director thinking?

I was super excited when I started to watch, because I never heard about this movie, it has Greece in the title, and me, who lived in Greece for a dekade is always enjoying to watch anything related to Greece.. until I heard the "Greeks" speak broken greek, I couldn't understand why. Reading the name of the cast and understanding that no even one actor was greek broke my heart. Why? What was the purpose? It hurts people's ears.Please, do not ever do anything similar to this. Story was ok to kill the time, I really enjoyed to watch little Caleb Payne (he was very good!), but that was pretty it.

Good is as goodness does

Well, let's just get it out of the way: a small South African production, shot during the first (read "BIG") wave of Covid and on basically no budget. So the angry reviews about it not being my Big Fat Greek Wedding is perhaps missing that little gems doesn't always have Big Fat Budgets or South African actors that speak Greek......However, this indie movie has a lot of soul, touches your heart , makes you smile and even shed a tear. Olive's journey is utterly human and relatable; it transcends country or culture. The cast is great and the acting is gripping. You probably won't remember Good Life for the rest of your life, but it will sure brighten up your week. Enjoy it!
