I was bothered by the fact the woman had to dumb herself down
Did anyone else get sort of disgusted at the fact that the main character had to dumb herself down in order to look good at her job? She was very smart and wanted to talk about the ruins...yet ended up fake orgasming in the bus on the way to Delphi?
I got the whole idea that tourists in general are idiots...for the most part. But there are a lot of people who know history who want a guide to help them learn. I would go to Greece for the culture, museums and ruins...but many Americans and other tourists just want to go "party". I am not sure why people can't learn something about history AND then have a good time at the beach...for some reason being smart and being fun are exclusive of each other...well, I guess in American culture they are. I've gotten put down a lot for being smart. It's really annoying American culture is the way it is.
But anyway, overall it was a decant comedy and the views of Greece were great and the movie is good, if only for that. Some of the actors, especially the comedians involved, I like. I probably wouldn't recommend it to anyone. It's really syrupy and typical of a romantic comedy, only the humor is a bit better. I try to stay away from the genre and this is probably why!
