Critic Reviews

Paula Nechak

It's the chemistry between Vardalos and Collette that gives the film its magical dazzle. Despite Vardalos' ingratiating, big and breathy presence, Collette, as the pulse and conscience of these two dreamers, very nearly steals the film. Read full review

Owen Gleiberman

The surprise -- and intermittent delight -- of Connie and Carla is the way that it taps into the everybody-is-a-star passion of the new sing-along culture. Read full review

Chris Kaltenbach

Connie and Carla is a good-hearted comedy that missteps by trying to become a moralistic one. Read full review

M. E. Russell

May be fairly funny, sort of sweet and slightly muddled, but one thing about it is utterly certain: It loves, loves, loves some bad cabaret. Read full review

Scott Tobias

Seems as much an imposter in the drag-queen world as its heroines; it fronts the sort of safely asexual gay characters found on network TV. Read full review

Stephen Holden

As a female vocal duo, their performances are passable, if a little dull and lacking in any sense of camp exaggeration. Read full review

David Ng

One suspects Vardalos's movies aren't written as much as up-chucked, the result of all-night binges on SnackWells and Oxygen network reruns. Read full review

Something like "Some like it hot" with Tony Curtis, Jack Lemmon, and Marilyn Monroe. Two singers witness a murder and take off to save their lives. They hide as the opposite sex. They make friends with the opposite sex folks they hang out with. But one of them falls in love. BasicallySomething like "Some like it hot" with Tony Curtis, Jack Lemmon, and Marilyn Monroe.
