	Author	Review
United States	Geoff Berkshire Variety	"Every bit as sitcom-ish and saccharine as its predecessor, but considerably less distinctive (...) Vardalos seems to have used up all her best Greek-specific gags the first time around"	NEG
United States	Jeannette Catsoulis The New York Times	"A washed-out recycling of ethnic clichés and exhausted jokes (...) The comedy is forced, the drama nonexistent and the actors melt into a yapping clan that seems to go everywhere en masse"	NEG
United States	Bilge Ebiri Village Voice	"It's a nice movie. Not a good one, or a well-made one, or a smart one, but a nice one."	NEU
United States	Joe Dziemianowicz New York Daily News	"My Big Fat Greek Wedding 2" is like baklava. It's light, sweet and nutty. But after indulging you might ask yourself, "Did I really need that? (...) Rating: ★★★ (out of 5)"	NEU
United Kingdom	Fionnuala Halligan Screendaily	"Vardalos’ broad routine hasn’t aged well, her (...) ‘oily’ Greek family an uncomfortable, almost retro fit for today’s global sensitivities. Apart from that, the gags just aren’t that funny."	NEG
United Kingdom	Kate Lloyd Time Out	"A big fat disappointment (...) Watching ‘My Big Fat Greek Wedding 2’ is like getting a hug from your great aunt: comforting and familiar but not particularly exciting (...) Rating: ★★ (out of 5)"	NEG
United States	Frank Scheck The Hollywood Reporter	"This sequel employs the same crowd-pleasing elements as the original (...) Vardalos and Corbett display the relaxed romantic chemistry that made them so endearing to audiences in the first film"	POS
United States	Devan Coggan Entertainment Weekly	"Vardalos sticks as close to her original script as possible (...) The result is a tired and unnecessary retread that not even a healthy spritz of Windex can cure"	NEG
