Did anyone see the movie "Mamma Mia!"? Wow! It was a great movie. The story was great and the music made it so much better! I loved the movie so much I want to see it again in the movies and buy the DVD. Lol. :eusa_danc

I haven't seen it yet (sure I'll like it if I will), but one of my friends has played me bits of the soundtrack.... Must say the new renditions make me cringe a little bit.

I wanted to see this well because I love ABBA! It hasn't got very good reviews so I wondered if it would be any good. If you guys like it, I may have to go check it out myself.

ive seen it 3 times. first time it made my day and i sang. second and third time my friend and i got japanese food, snuck it in, and danced and sang quite obnoxiously.
i loved it, but i have to say i was quite dissapointed in meryl streep during the winner takes it all, but thats all i could find wrong. it is a musical, so its not that realistic, and always has a happy ending (except urinetown). thats the dream world of musicals and disney...
deffinatly seeing it again.

I enjoyed it. I have seen the musical when it toured here and I love ABBA, (hence the name). I wasn't expecting a lot from it but much better in the cinema. I thought WInne Takes It All, while not good when just hearing it, watching it, she carries the song on emotion. THey are all actors first and then singers while on Broadway, they are singers, then actors.

...you know, if it weren't for the whole liking men bit, sometimes I would wonder if I were actually gay. I have no interest in this movie at all.

I've seen it twice. It's so much fun! Not quite as good as Hairspray though :P
Some of the singing is cringeworthy (Pierce Brosnan...), but that's part of the fun too. The young girl, Amanda Seyfreid, is an amazing singer, and gorgeous as well.

Meryl Streep was AMAZING. "The Winner Takes It All" made me tear up a little.
After the movie, I bought the soundtrack off iTunes and I can't stop listening! lol

i saw it... it was... good.
ive seen mamma mia on stage. so i thought the movie was just another crappy movie musical... steals all the magic of the live show.
but every movie musical doest that for me.....
other than that, i really didnt like sophies voice... they should have got singers... its a musical, not a movie...

I just got back from seeing it with my LGBT group. I thought it would be shit, as I usually hate musicals, but I actually really enjoyed it! I liked the fact that Colin Firth's character was gay, that really made me feel more included. The dances and songs felt fun and I really enjoyed it. Even if Pierce Brosnan's singing was a little forced ;)

I thought Amanda was one of the better singers...
