BallWubba Wow! What a bizarre film! Unfortunately the few funny moments there were were quite overshadowed by it's completely weird and random vibe throughout.
Raymond Sierra The film may be flawed, but its message is not.

t_panidis Ephapax is a film about a married man that works as a garbage collector. His retirement day arrives and his family calculates what they will do with his pension but they didn't think about what he wants to do. It gives an excellent view of a middle class family in greece. Very funny and unpredictable in what the next move of the main character (petros phillipidis) will be when he dissapears with the money and his familly starts looking for him. I give it a 10 out of 10
rcpjimmy Nicos Zapatinas is a movie maker who knows how to make the spectator "feal" what he's watching. In Ephapax he takes two great performances from Petros Fillipidis and Evelina Papoulia. Especially Evelina has permanently left behind the identity of the binbo in "dyo xseni" and starting from the theater she is proving her great talent. Petros on the other hand could't have done worse since he is a great performer! The movie has Zapatinas' sence of humour (remember "enas k' enas"), fast pace, and a scenario inspired from every day's life that can touch anyone. The end of the movie left me with a a sweet taste and an optimistic view of tomorrow. Two thinks worth pointing out a)Evelina is a knock out! what a woman! and b)excellent music score and especially Maxairitsas' song performed by G. Kotsiras. If you combined all of the above you ll have a very entertaining time watching "EPHAPAX".
