If you love Abba, Pierce Brosnan and Meryl Streep then this is the film for you.
Mama Mia the undoubted hit of 2008, is a stage-to-film adaptation of the 1999 West End musical of the same name, based on the songs of successful pop group ABBA, with additional music also composed by ABBA member Benny Andersson. The film did very well at the box office becoming the highest grossing film musical of all time and also became the most successful British film ever in United Kingdom.
I did like this film although I did not go crazy over it like a lot of people did, I heard stories of big groups of people going to the cinema and all singing along to the movie, no, not me, but I did like it.
With any type of musical film you wonder how they are going to link the songs to the story because sometimes you get films that have a story and then ...

Advantages: garunteed feel good film Disadvantages: -
After going to see this film at the cinema twice I decided that I wanted it for christmas on dvd so I was over the moon when I got it.
It is about a girl (Amanda Seyfried) who is getting married. She has never really known who her father is and after discovering her Mum's old diary invites three possible fathers to her wedding, without her mum (Meryl Streep) knowing. Her mum soon finds out though and it then follows the tale of her trying to find out which of the three is her father.
What I like about the film Mamma Mia is that it is fun packed full of singing and dancing and the cast are fantastic and there seems to be really good chemistry between them. Julie Walters is quite funny in it and Meryl Streep is quite good with the singing and all the cast play their roles really well. The only downside has to be Pierce Brosnan ...

Mamma Mia - Take a chance on me!!
After all this is now the most successful UK film (overtaking Titanic) and the fastest selling DVD. I was lucky enough to see this musical on Broadway in New York, soon after it opened and really enjoyed it. I could not visualise how it would transfer to the screen - but I have to admit they have done a fantastic job (mostly) with near perfect casting (almost). A WORD OF WARNING - the film is rated PG with a warning for special care for children under five and I found this warning needed to be observed. After all, how do you explain to an eight year old that a girl and her mother may not know who her father is (from a choice of three). This point needs thought before you watch it for those tricky questions!!!
Synopsis -
This is a musical that has been written to fit the wonderful ABBA songs. As ...
