A great comedy movie

It's one of the movies that I spend most of the time laughing in the theatre. It's a great comedy! It has a black sense of humour which goes perfect with it crazy story. Also, in some scenes the camera movements are EXCELLENT despite of being a comedy it has a well don't camera work. In the beginning the images are delightful specially the scenes with red. The music composition of "rempetiko" and some heavy metal and other. The movie has lot of references to the 60s to 90s for example famous movies of the time like "the thing" with its practical effects. Sometimes, to not say most of the times the movie edit is Goofy (for example the CGI) but in a fun way which shows that the editor had a lot of fun editing those scenes. It's a amazing movie and I would watch it more than 2 times and i believe that someone who love the vibes of those decades (60s-90s) would appreciate a lot this film and have a great laugh.

A minor effort.

Low-brow and low-quality comedy targeted to the wide uneducated audience is what has dominated Greek film/tv/theater for decades.Once in a while, there will be attempts to combine this particular brand of Greek entertainment with foreign elements. A couple of years ago Kako and Kako 2 came out and in the 80's there was Drakoulas ton Eksarhion.In Minore you got bouzouki music and traditional Greek guys playing backgammon. You also got tentacled monsters that looks as if they were created with A. I software and some cheap looking gore. If that wasn't bad enough, the film lasts one hour and fifty minutes and for the first hour absolutely nothing happens.It is no surprise Minore didn't last in Greek cinemas more than a week. It didn't do better with international audiences.If the creators of Minore had taken their viewers more seriously maybe there would have been a more positive response."It's all Greek to me," summons up everything one can say about this film.

At least they tried...

Initially when I stumbled upon this 2023 Greek horror movie, I must admit that I was expecting some Lovecraftian horror, given the movie's cover and the synopsis.Sure, I had never heard about this movie from director Konstantinos Koutsoliotas prior to sitting down to watch it, so I didn't really know what I was in for.Writers Konstantinos Koutsoliotas and Elizabeth E. Schuch put together a script that proved boring and sluggishly paced. Sure, it was slightly Lovecraftian in nature, and I really wanted to like the narrative, but the storyline was just too boring and uneventful. And the character gallery was flaccid and bland, and people just standing around different locations playing guitar was so odd.I was left with an overwhelming sense of 'was there a point to this narrative?' once the movie came to an end.Give my extreme limited exposure to the Greek cinema, this being my second movie in my 49 years of living, to watch a Greek movie, then I wasn't familiar with a single actor or actress on the cast list. But I will say that the acting performances were good.It was a nice touch that the sailor apparently served aboard a ship named Miskatonia. Definitely a tribute towards Lovecraft.The effects in the movie were surprisingly good, and the effects were the ones carrying the majority of the movie, as the storyline was a massive swing and a miss.My rating of "Minore" lands on a generous three out of ten stars.
