I wanted to like it more than I actually did... But much of the humor totally escaped me and I walked out only mildly impressed.

This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one

At last a Greek movie that doesn't make me to be ashame of the cinematographers of my country.You can really sit at your couch,hug your girlfriend and enjoy this movie,because it contains some of the most adorable images I ever met in a Greek film.Reality and fantasy are mixed together perfectly.A mystery that is waiting to be revealed,a love story that touches the deepest part of your heart,great performances from the cast..The only problem is that some of the script's twists flirt dangerously with soap opera,but in the end that doesn't ''hurt'' the movie at all.As you can see this film meets my demands of a motion picture and i cannot understand why it didn't do so well at the box office.Maybe you can give it a second chance by renting the DVD.And believe me,you will not regret it!

Well I'm writing my comments 11 days after Yannis Diamanti's death. I really liked the movie as the plot is the fact of our real life. The action is great and the most I liked is Acropolis being burned. You have to see the movie, I'm sure u'll love it... Yannis was a great actor and friend. He really loved acting so I think you have to see the movie to see his acting. He was a member in Greek Theatre of Deaf for about 10 years. Sea took him away from us. He was an candidate of second men's role. Once he said "The voice for me is not the basic element, I express itself through the sign language as there exist also other worlds and realities except what they hear and speak. As, for example, the world of hearing impaired which I want also to express." Rest in Peace beloved Yanni.

It was not a surprise that the director of the famous The Attack of the Giant Mousaka would continue his bizarre career with a fine, stylish, funny and breathtaking melodrama... It is going to be released internationally. So wait and you'll see. One of the few real talents not only in Greek cinema but worldwide. Panos H. Koutras is a name you should remember and Real Life a movie you won't forget. Full of passion, new ideas, great acting (especially from the leading ladies) and a tribute to the greatest of all genres: melodrama.In the end (the great underwater scene) you are going to cry your eyes out as well as keep thinking of all the things you should have dared and you didn't. Really, a great movie!
