I have first seen this movie when I was a kid and had a good time watching it. Now that I see it again 15 years later I realize it hasn't lost anything of its original charm.
The dialogue is funny, witty and provides most of the humor of the film (sort of reminds me of 'You've got mail'). Being able to understand the original French soundtrack is a plus, cause a lot gets lost in the translation.
I also like the movie since it gives a funny overview of Greek life/politics quite unknown to many people who have visited the country as casual tourists.
If you want to see a funny movie without exploding cars, horror scenes and the like I highly recommend it.
