Mamma Mia! the Movie.

With promises of an almost all-stars cast comprising of Amanda Seyfried, Meryl Streep, Pierce Brosnan and Colin Firth amogst others in addition to the very popular soundtracks from 70s's /80's ABBA, who can resist not giving a chance for this musical? (especially when given a chance to watch it for free by Nuffnang =p)

It seems to me that this is a movie where you either fold your arms and impatiently await the end of this mindless, ridiculous and totally incomprehensible musical to end OR you'd either sing along (not out loud of course) and go along with the silly but entertaining antics of the cast.

After all, where else would you see 3 grown women (Meryl Streep!) singing, jumping and basically behaving in a totally indecently ridiculous manner?

Despite the inane capering, the average vocals as well as a typical story arc, it does induce a certain glee and obtimistic aura, with the sensation of swinging your feet (well, at least for me since my feet can't really touch the ground if i sit back) and humming along to those very familiar tunes you grew up with.

"You are the dancing queen, young and sweet, only seventeen

Dancing queen, feel the beat from the tambourine

You can dance, you can jive, having the time of your life

See that girl, watch that scene, diggin' the dancing queen.."

Coupled with the breathtaking Greek scenery, this movie can indeed charm its way into you heart. Once you get over how totally absurd the plot and storyline is of course. So sit back, relax and just let its mind-numbing frivolousness of the musical sweep you off your feet. Bring your parents. LOL.

And no, I won't spoil it for you by giving a synopsis here (although you can always Google). Go watch it. And learn that age is not a factor when it comes to having fun.

Oh, and one other thing. I think Mr.James Bond should stick to looking-suave-in-a-tux and handling some high-tech weapon or something. NO singing. Please.

Warning: This is a PG-13 movie. Quite a few sexual implications with notable "dot dot dots...". Fun though.
