My Life in Ruins – Review from A Traveler’s Library
June 17, 2009 by Jane Boursaw
My friend Vera Marie Badertscher, who blogs at A Traveler’s Library, sent me a link to her review of "My Life in Ruins," a romantic comedy starring Nia Vardalos as a Greek tour guide.
I’m glad for the review, because I haven’t had a chance to see it yet. And maybe I won’t! Vera doesn’t give the movie high marks, calling it "an absolute stinker" with "incredibly lame" dialogue that you should wait to see when it comes out on DVD. Ok, then, Vera!
But she does have a few good things to say about it, too; namely, Richard Dreyfuss, magnificent scenery of "old broken marble stuff" and "Greek guys," not to mention great views of the Parthenon, Delphi and Olympia.
Sounds like maaayyybbeee the scenery might be worth a trip to the movie theater, for this movie girl anyway. I’ll try and ignore the not-so-good parts.
Thanks for the review, Vera!
