Worlds Apart (2015)

If you like deep, emotional and still serious movies, this is the one. I am obsessed with Greece since my childhood and have lived there for many year and probably will go back one day and this was the reason why I just googled Greek movies and came across this movie and read the plot. On the background of troubled Greece without any Make up or masks these three love stories about a "second chance" goes directly not into your heart but into your "Psichi" as they say in greek into your soul. I just did not want the movie to end and this is one of the movies which will stick with me for a long long time! Fantastic! Must be one of the most wonderful movies I have seen in a LONG time!

Fmovies: "Worlds Apart" is a drama romance movie in which we watch three different stories. All of them are located in modern-day in Greece and each one represents a different generation of Greeks. The first has to do with a love affair between a young Greek girl and a foreigner, the second with a man who tries to balance his personal life with work and the fear of getting fired, and the third story has to do with a middle aged woman who is unhappy with her husband and her marriage but finds the love somewhere else.

I have to say that I expected more from this movie since it was supposed to do with the immigration problem and the economic crisis of Greece. Christopher Papakaliatis who made the direction of this movie tries to find the balance between some very important issues that exist nowadays and for many years in Greece but his overreaction is obvious in the whole duration of the film something that makes it non-realistic. Although I have to admit that I liked very much the interpretations of Maria Kavoyianni who played Maria and J.K. Simmons who played Sebastian. These interpretations were so good that I believe that they saved a part of the movie but not all of it.

To sum up, I believe that "Worlds Apart" is an average movie with a poor plot and a lot of scenes that either we have already watched in other movies or it was very easy to expect what will happen. This movie is worse than "What If" because the way it presents some things it's not the correct and proper way. It wants to be a realistic movie but it's an overreaction on some sensitive issues.

The film is great and everybody should see it especially us greeks

BRAVO!!!!

Worlds Apart fmovies. In a time when Greece is having some serious struggles comes three stories of people who are making romantic connections and their connections are effected by the struggle.

Some are good some are long lasting but not met to be and it would not be Greek it they didn't have a tragedy.

Thankfully JK Simmons was in this movie or I would not be able to pronounce anyone's name in this.

Funny romantic and very dramatic as the Greeks discuss the politics of what's going on in the country today while still trying to find love. Sounds very Greek, right? It was a very good movie.

I'm no fan of love stories but I am interested in both Greece and Europe's refugee problem and this film is as much about those as they are about love. As a DVD it seemed a choice that my wife would probably enjoy, and I was right, she loved it and so did I. It's about youth, people at the height of their careers, and love in the twilight years. Surprisingly I related strongly to all three stories which run seamlessly one into another. They're all acted beautifully with J K Simmons left as a sort of dessert with Maria Kavoyianni as the cherry.

The director, Christopher Papakaliatis, who apparently also wrote the script, deserves a real budget and a shot at the best suitable script that comes along. The evidence is abundant in this movie but the best example of it is a dressing down that happens near the end of the movie, it's wonderful.

To think of all the grief that's rained down on Greece thanks to the refugee crisis, and then to watch this compassionate Greek take on the problem makes the US response look positively juvenile.

There are not many Greek production movies that can make it to the theater with good impressions. And one should support their countrymen and their efforts. But i am deeply disappointed and angry. Reviewing this way, is of course not the Right way, cause "Anger leads to the dark side"... You all know what this is all about and where it leads. Director Christopher Papakaliatis "copy-past" and mimics scenes from foreign movies and blockbusters into his own movies. Thats that kind of money he makes and now he pushes back release dates to...sabotage? If you have a good movie, let it speak for itself. If you're afraid of competition, don't release it...
