6/10
stereotyped comedy and a beautiful island
7 August 2010
I have not seen the first movie that acted as something approaching a first part therefore I would not comment on elements of continuity and coherence.This movie had a mixed reception in Greece to say the least, because many of the stereotypical attitudes that attributes to Greeks and Greek-Australians are negative in themselves: financial corruption, nepotism etc.

On the other hand, to use a term that has been the title of another Greek movie that was shot in Mykonos-it has many "beautiful people" in it, notably Makrypoulia and Copolla, who play a Greek singer and former Miss Italy respectively.

The funniest aspect of the film had to do with the appearance and behaviour of the two German archaeologists who finally make a discovery that acts as a catalyst in the development of the plot.

I can not say that it was a quality movie but it is fun, it is shot in a very charming place, Mykonos, as the title suggests and has some memorable appearances, if not performances. Good clean summer fun.
