Product Description

Review

Nia Vardalos probably could have had any project she wanted greenlit after the phenomenal success of My Big Fat Greek Wedding -- easily the biggest sleeper hit in movie history. What she did was fashion a distaff Some Like It Hot that exists solely so that the self-admitted musical theater geek can perform some of her favorite show tunes. On the plus side, the musical performances by Vardalos and co-star Toni Collette are quite good. The duo did their own singing and their voices mesh quite well together. Their joy as they belt out the songs is palpable. Sadly, the rest of the film does not work as well. While the gangster storyline fails to build up either tension or humor, the film's storyline about drag queens seeking acceptance is hammered home with an artistically shameful obviousness. Odds are that anyone interested in a film about women on the run from the mob pretending to be drag queens is already gay friendly, so this entire section of the film is little more than a sermon directed at the converted. And what a boring, unoriginal sermon it is. Greek Wedding may have been slight and derivative, but it was never preachy or earnest. For those that believe in the sophomore slump, Connie and Carla provides a rather fascinating case study. ~ Perry Seibert, All Movie Guide

2.0 out of 5 stars not really suited to my tastes, Dec 11 2007

By	falcon "disdressed12" (canada) - See all my reviews (TOP 500 REVIEWER)

this movie isn't for me,but i could see how people would like it.it has
two very likable leads in Nia Vardalos and Toni Collette.both are great
actresses and work well off each other very well here.they both have
great comedic timing.and their are some great witty moments here.but
for me,there's just too many musicals,and i'm not really a musical
fan.plus,i kinda found the film quite slow.i'm not really into the drag
queen scene in movies either.i knew what the movie was about before
watching it but i still thought id' give it a shot.if you're a musical
fan and you have a bit of patience,this movie might work for,and you
might really enjoy it. my vote for Connie and Carla is a 2/5

5.0 out of 5 stars Drag-Licious!, Jul 14 2004

By	Jason R. Brook (Portland, Maine United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This was one of the funniest films I've ever seen. I think as a theatrical musician and performer the musical reviews that Connie and Carla concoct are far more funny to me than they might be to someone who isn't as familiar with the broadway musicals. This film is VERY accessible to anyone, but holds far more comedy for the broadway theatrical performer or theatregoer.

I can honestly say, most of today's comedies fall flat with me. However, 'Connie and Carla' was a pleasant surprise. It's hilarious. Nia Vardalos is a top-notch talent. Read more

I wasn't expecting an awful lot from 'Connie and Carla', I must say - as a gay man I am somewhat over-used to a gay theme in movies being an excuse for Hollywood Cliche and... Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars I just adored this movie...
I was so pleased that this movie was so entertaining. I must admit, I only went to see it because of David Duchovny...I see "everything" he is in. Read more
