Mamma Mia!

This was a good and funny movie. Pierce Bronson can't sing, but you have to give him an "A" for effort and having the guts to do so. Everyone else sounded great. Tutoring helps.

Pros: Good storyline - Most of cast did a great job on the vocals. Beautiful scenery. I want to go to Greece.

Cons: Pierce Bronson is soooo cute, but can't sing. Goes to prove that you can't have everything. Rest of cast did a good job on the vocals.

My daughter and I went to see this movie and thourghly enjoyed it. Light, fun, loved the music and Meryl Streep. Meryl and Collin did a credible job singing - really liked the end part where they dressed up like the Abba folks. We laughed out loud when Pierce Brosman - tried to sing.....he has always been one of my favorites (back to Remington Steel) but singer, he is not - still good looking - still swave - not a singer.

I went to see this with my wife and thinking "oh no another chic flick' was ready to close my eyes for night. But was a great surprise, it was fun, exciting, I would say one of the best movies of the year!!! Good for anyone, not just women, but men, children would love it. The music is great. This is a especially good idea for men taking out a woman (boyfriends, husbands, dads...). Unlike other chic flicks where the woman is happy, but the man feels like he is going to put a knife through his heart (e.g. "Something" in the City), you both will love this movie. I rarily would go to see a movie twice and my wife the same, but we agreed we love to go see it again.

Pros: Fun, exciting, doesn't slow down

Cons: None

I went to see this movie not knowing what to expect. I was blown away by the scenery, the music and the story line was cute. M. Streep was great as usual.

RUCrazy This movie rocks and rocks again. Meryl Streep plays a free spirited woman, who still loves her one true love. Who knew she could sing as she does in this movie. Abba music is great. For anyone who grew up in the eighties, brings back a lot of funny memories... The plot is unique and it is a musical for all intense purposes. Romance with Meryl and her old beau is one plot and the other has to do with her daughter and her marriage. To me, just to hear the music and see the costumes was enough. I am a great fan of Meryl Streep and to see her in this gypsyish, free spirited,comedic role is unique. She can do just about anything. Her crazy friends hold their own right along with Meryl. Can not say enough about this flick Great for kids, and a chick flick. hubbies should stay home on this movie night. This movie should be compared to others like it in the same genre---musicals and contemporary musicals. If you compare this to the Dark Knight--well there is no way you can do this. urmoronic needs to look again for the real message in this movie. fun, laughter, music, an intervention for the dark misanthropic soul.

Pros: musical and very funny

Cons: people who don't understand this movie's purpose

how ANYONE could say that this movie was one of the best movies of the year, or even one of the best musicals ever made ever, is inane. if your husband wanted to see it more than once, then he must have to try WAY too hard to get some; or he is gay. no worries either way, but these people thinking that Meryl Streep dancing goofily could in any way take on a quarter of what The Dark Knight is as a whole, while opening on the same weekend, must have some sort of severe mental problems to sell this truly lame storyline that could only appeal to those over 80 years of age. ...or those who act like they are that weak and fragile. i snuck into it to just check it out and was quickly embarrassed for the actors (although Brosnan and Streep actually are almost 80, so they looked pretty good considering!), and everyone in the theater; needless to say i quickly left.

Pros: the 80 yr old Streep and Brosnan sure can cut a rug! LOL

Cons: people singing and dancing POORLY, the really dumb and shallow plot, etc...

Best movie I have seen in a long time. My husband and I have seen it 3 times and Im going back tonight with my best friend. It is just unbelievably entertaining and you can take your kids and not worry about anything inappropriate. My husband absolutely loved it and went back for 2nds and 3rds. So when people say its only a chick flick, not really!!!! Its just a feel good movie, that will leave you dancing and singing in your heart!!!! If your having a bad day or just feeling down, go see it!!!! It will lift you up!!!!

Pros: EVERYTHING

Cons: NOTHING

I agree with the guy who said that if you are a chick you love it; but as a male the movie was HORRIBLE. Do not see it, or you will be contemplating suicide afterwords.....

Pros: I slept an extra 2 hours that day

Cons: Everything possible
