Toula (Nia Vardalos) is still smothered by her large Greek family in Chicago. She has somehow ended up working back at the diner. Her husband Ian (John Corbett) is the principal at the school. Their daughter Paris is embarrassed and overwhelmed by her noisy family. She is considering moving away for college. Toula's father insists on finding a connection to Alexander the Great. In the process, he discovers his marriage certificate is missing the priest's signature.
The humor of the original has a nice charm. Nia has pushed the writing in this movie more towards TV sitcom. The original charm has become cheesy. The premise to make another wedding is artificial at best. The daughter story should be the center this time but Nia insists on making her character the lead. She simply doesn't have the romantic drama. There is an easier way to make a fun comedy out of this franchise but this is not the way.
