After the first 15 mins of corn the movie gets better and better and I'll be back again and again. Tears of nostalgia hearing Abba 's music performed so well.

Blew me away!

It was amazing! Even though Pierce Brosnan really can't sing it fit in perfectly with the silliness of the film. Greece was beautiful and it was so lovely to hear Abba's music. I just couldn't help but tap my feet to the music. It was interesting to see Amanda Seyfield play such a different character from Karen in Mean Girls, and the last movie I saw Merly Streep in was The Devil wears Prada, those two are such flexible actresses! I am by the way a teen and even though at first sight it seems like a "old peoples film" it really isn't. A must see for all ages!

Not the sort of movie I would usually see, and can't say I was expecting a whole lot from it, but I loved it. Absolutely hilarious! A lot more than I bargained for. I don't think I've ever left a theater saying I'd like to see that again. Best movie I've seen in ages. Highly recommend it if you need a bit of lively entertainment and a really good laugh.

Meryl ROCKS!!!

WOW!! Dragged my hubsand out last night to watch this fantastic movie - laughed, cried and sang, and my hubby enjoyed it too!!! My first viewing of this show will definitely not be my last - have already put the DVD and soundtrack on my wish list for Xmas - and checking out the internet to see where we can afford to go to see the stage musical!!

Wanting something that sets you on your toes?

Pierce Brosnan stood out because everyone else was so good. I loved all the characters. It was up and in your face and the music was much better than that played on my old stereo in the 70's.
It would be one of those fillms you can go back to for a pick me up time after time. A time to remember and enjoy.

SO MUCH FUN

Just have to see it again today, and taking hubby too. What energy, Meryl can even sing, she's fabulous, you can just feel her happiness in the making of this wonderful movie. Not that I was an Abba Fan in those early days, but I guess like anything, the music grows on you, and we all know the words. 4 girlfriends and I saw it, we couldn't sit together, but the people sitting next to us all, included us in their excitement - Looking forward to this afternoon.

My My. How can we resist you?

So this was to be my punishment for insisting the girlfriend join me for The Dark Knight (which incidentally she really enjoyed). The first half of this movie didn't make me too comfortable. You expect musicals to have loads of camp cliches and giant grins but Mamma Mia goes over the top and then up through the ceiling. It's all a bit much initially.

Then things settle down and the movie trots out a very strong storyline, quite amazing how they managed to tie in the Abba songs so seamlessly.

The acting is high class, as it ought to be from the lineup involved here, although everyone except Stellan Skarsgard seems to be in a competition to steal the most scenes. Christine Baranski wins I think, and is clearly the one with the stage background judging by her hilarious routine.

All-in-all it was worth seeing the Dark Knight for.

Is anyone not going to have a really good idea of what they'll get when they buy a ticket to this film. It's a lift for the spirits. A fabulous musical romp. This has been a great year for musicals with first "Across the Universe" and now this beauty.

Trashy Acting. Awkward Choreography. Sub-standard Singing (particularly from Pierce). Predictable gags. Meryl Streep is disappointingly wooden and sluggish. The groom-to-be is nothing more than poorly cast eye-candy. The cheese is trite, not charming. The back-up cast are totally inspid, namely the matriphiliacal afro-headed bartender. Little-to-none of the theatrical magic is transferred onto the screen, though they do try very hard. Looks like it was slapped together with all the budget going to location and set design and none of it going towards a decent script. In short, it's a stinker. In fact, this is easily the worst film I have ever seen in my entire life.

Keep an eye out for Meryl's major number, a drawn out and hugely dull scene involving her singing 'The Winner Takes All' to Pierce Brosnan. It's nothing but swooping shots of the two of them standing on a rock with her making flailing arm-gestures and him gawping like a stunned-mullet. It nicely sums up the film.

is this the worst film ever made?

I laughed (in all the wrong places) I cried (in all the wrong places). I tried to crawl under my seat. You know how when you were a kid watching a scary movie you had to hide behind a cushion and just peek out - what can I say - take a cushion! You can't blame the actors - but you do have to question WHY WHY WHY ???? The script is nothing more than a ridiculous vehicle written in an afternoon to stitch the Abba songs together and the direction is so so bad it's laughable.... in a way I almost recommend it - because I did laugh a lot... at the utter ludicrousness of it.

MAMMA MIA!

This is the absolute first time I have ever gone to see a movie more than once. I could see it again and again. It is exhilerating and funny. My father-in -law went to see it. He said it was the first time he had ever see an audience clap (in a movie theatre) Its true that no-one thinks Pierce Brosnan suits the part (including me) but what the heck - at least he tried!!

LOVE IT!!!

My title basically sums it all up. Merly Streep did brilliantly as usual. Who knew she could sing. But an amazingly powerful voice comes out of her. And the newcomer Amanda Seyfried (sort of newcomer anyway she was in Mean Girls) did a fantastic job of portraying the tomboyish curious character of Sophie. Her voice is incredible although she says she's not very great. The two bffs of Donna were fantastic in making everyone crack up laughing every time they came on screen. Pierce Bronsnon was a disapointment singing wise. Although his acting was very good. None of the men actually showed an incredible talent for singing. So I would give last years blockbuster muscial Hairspray better marks for singers.

Watch out for some paticular musical numbers including Honey Honey (that was what made me fall in love with the movie and Amanda's voice), Mamma Mia, Super Trouper, Does Your Mother Know, Slipping Through My Fingers, The Winner Takes It All (Although this scene is extremely boring the vocals are amazing), Chiquitita, I Have A Dream

Enjoy it. It's fantastic.

Grows on you with repeat viewings!

Being a Musicals fan, and a long time BIG ABBA fan, and of Swedish/German extraction, I just had to see this one. Surprisingly, I liked it but not as much as I had hoped to. Was impressed with MERYL, and knew she had studied voice in College and had hoped to play 'EVITA' but lost out to Madonna. (She looks more like the real EVA PERON, actually) But, felt bad for PIERCE trying to sing.
Well, being somebody who usually goes again and again to Musical Films, I, kind of reluctantly went for a second show, and, I liked it more than before, and suffice it to say, have now seen it about 8 times, 5 of them in the second run cheapo theatre. I find it REALLY helps if you can get a stereo sound dsl or whatever screen and the sound is more vibrant than usual. AND, PIERCE AIN'T HALF BAD! Seriously, although lacking in the S.O.S. number in which he is no match for the faster song that needs more range and it is good he is drowned out by the choir and Meryl, he MORE than delivers in the other songs when he can do a sort of talk singing reminiscent of others like REX HARRISON in 'My Fair Lady'. He puts so much emotion into his acting of the songs that you overlook the shortcomings. I agree that better to cast a actor who sorta sings instead of a singer who tries to act, definitely! Amanda Seyfried is SO dazzling and what a Soprano, she is super sweet. I knew CHRISTINE BARANSKI had done Musical Theatre, and Julie Walters I had heard sing, but she really adds the comic factor. Everyone is so good. I would say to anyone who didn't care for it the first time to try again. This has worked with OTHER movies for me, as sometimes you are expecting way too much and don't appreciate what a film has in the first viewing, or you're just not in the mood for it or something. P.S. Who is supposed to be the father? I would think STELLAN, right? I mean, he has the right coloring and Scandinavian background for her dad, BUT, he is too tall as are the other 2 and also, MERYL, LOL! Maybe it wasn't ANY of the THREE, HEHE!
So long from TUCSON, ARIZONA, U.S.A.!

Mamma mia!

I was expecting it to be bad, as I thought the stage production was a let down, but oh my it was worse than I thought. Thank goodness it was on a plane and I didn't pay to watch it.

Guys if your girl wants to drag you out to see this one you had better drink a lot before hand to be able to get through it.

WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! My,My how can i resist ya
