Movie Haiku:Light & fun, especially for people like us who love Broadway musicals. We enjoyed the extravagant (albeit very silly) production numbers. OK, there's nothing new here (with the plot basically stolen from Billy Wilder’s SOME LIKE IT HOT), but Vardalos, who also wrote the screenplay, has charmed us yet again.
