I enjoyed this movie. In some parts the movie seemed a bit far fetched, but was interesting and suspenseful at times. I thought this movie was going to be set in Athens, Georgia, USA, so I was surprised it was set in Athens Greece. I can see a couple of 30's something expats being in this situation. This movie could have been anywhere. The characters are basically universal. While he comes off as kind of irresponsible and immature, she turns out the be the more manic and irresponsible one. But its a love story and I could see it happening, though maybe not as crazily as it did. Still I was satisfied with the film and was glad I watched it.
I was really looking forward to seeing this latest installment. I finally got to see all of it through dubious means as there was no legitimate way to view it, and when I finished it I felt a bit of a let down. I'm 11 years older than the group, having just turned 74, and have watched these installments from the first one to the present. I felt this was the least interesting of the entire series.
Here's a few thoughts I came away with. 1. People are pretty much the same. They all got pretty much in life what they sought and are basically who they have always been. Whether they ride a bicycle or a Rolls Royce, they all have adapted to their circumstances and probably all have similar amounts of satisfaction with their lives. 2 Their lives were quite ordinary regardless of class or money. They all found their niche and partners that suited them. 3. Their lives are all winding down. Their days of creating their lives and careers and families are pretty much over, they are now on the way out, making room for the next generations. 4. There were no big surprises in this episode. Their lives mirror the lives of so many people I know and have known. 5. The child is most definitely the father of the man. I was just commenting the other day that I am basically the same person as I was at 5 years old. The blueprint was there and never really changed. The same seems true for all the participants in the series.
