It's greek to me.

My Big Fat Greek Wedding is a very slim movie that succeeds on its own modest terms without pretense or apology. No wonder it's easy to like.

The movie is consistently funny without ever going over the top -- a rarity in movies.

Second City alum Nia Vardalos stars in this ethnic comedy, which she also wrote -- an ambitious way to break into a leading role; too bad the results are insubstantial.

The reliability of the genre doesn't excuse predictable jokes, pat fiascoes and so many stereotypes that one is tempted to alert the Greek anti-defamation league.

Endearing eccentricities, such as Toula's father's improvisational Greek etymologies of words like "kimono" and his reliance on Windex for a range of external-use medicinal purposes, help humanize the characters.

Ms. Vardalos' has loaded her charmingly fluffy script with cute idiosyncrasies in place of actual characters.

It offers the illusion of originality by bombarding audiences with Greek stereotypes, but really clings to the formulaic romance comedy.

You don't have to be Greek to enjoy My Big Fat Greek Wedding, and that's precisely the point of it.

Perfect sleepover movie for tweens (and moms!).
