Mamma Mia!
The film adaptation of the massively popular Broadway musical, featuring an array of ABBA’s greatest hits, tells the story of 18-year-old Sophie (Amanda Seyfried). It’s almost her wedding day and she still doesn't know who her father is. It could be any of her mother’s (Meryl Streep) past suitors: Sam (Pierce Brosnan), Bill (Stellan Skarsgård) or Harry (Colin Firth). The only way for her to find out is to invite all three to her wedding to see what happens.
Includes all ABBA fan favourites: 'Super Trouper', 'Dancing Queen', 'Knowing Me, Knowing You', 'Thank You for the Music', 'Money Money Money', 'The Winner Takes It All', 'Voulez Vous', 'I Have A Dream' and 'SOS'.
Starring Colin Firth, Meryl Streep, Pierce Brosnan, Amanda Seyfried, Stellan Skarsgård, Julie Walters
Directed by Phyllida Lloyd (feature debut)
Written by Catherine Johnson (based on the musical)

1/2 Meryl Streep, Julie Walters and Christine Baranski all turn in an energetic day's work. And as for the boys ... well, it's an old truism of musicals that you're better off casting actors who can sing a bit, rather than singers who can act a bit.

1/2 Perhaps we're looking for purer forms of escapism in these harsher economic times, but Mamma Mia! manages to hit just the right note with Abba song-and-dance routines, which will leave you humming 1970s disco tunes for days.

1/2 It didn't do the trick for me, and if I never EVER have to hear James Bond singing EVER again, I will die a happy woman.

Urban Cinefile [Australia]
This joyous frolic propelled and inspired by the timeless music of ABBA is a bit like Grease for the older set, with Meryl Streep and Pierce Brosnan playing the leading roles. Based on the hit stage show Mamma Mia, it's an ambitious musical about secrets, love, friendship and is great escapism for all ages.
