This was movie covered a less-known part of Greece (the mainland) with an entertaining chase. The writers were very accurate about sceneries and the way they depicted post crisis Greece (although in a pre-pandemic era). They handled wonderfully greek speakers and the way they interact with an american.
However, as an Athenian citizen I want to point out some improprieties.
1) I found very unlikely that all rural habitants of Zagorohoria spoke english (while the nursery and the first policeman didn't).
2) Beckett escaped the train after Kalambaka, possibly near Trikala, and he run out with some girls to Athens, via Rio-Antirio bridge. This is not an efficient way to head to Athens.
3) The American embassy in Greece is in Megaro Mousikis station, not in Omonia.
4) After a political assassination of the prime minister presumptive in his speech, deafening calm and quiet prevailed. In normal circumstances there would be red alert and curfew from local authorities.
5) Given medical condition of the protagonist during his chase, it's unlikely he could do this immense trip.
