I had an incredibly fun Friday night with my fellow Dancing Queens. We went to see Mamma Mia. Last year we saw the stage production together and it was a blast. The movie was great. I do have to say, if Pierce Brosnan as 007, is your fantasy man, you will probably trade him in for a newer model after hearing him sing. He was incredibly corny, over enunciating and having that 'French horn' quality to his voice. EVERY and I mean EVERY time he sang, the audience was roaring. A lady in our row sounded like she had laid an egg, she was actually cackling. I know he was supposed to sound overdramatic but WOW, it was totally weird. I mean, he IS James Bond, and to see him singing SOS was enough to almost make one wet their pants.
Do I recommend this film? YES! Of course I am biased because I was in high school when ABBA came out, and I loved them then. I don't know if a guy would enjoy it or not, because I am married to a metro that likes to listen to Barry Manilow and watch the WE channel, so you would have to make that judgment call with your hubby. Heck, forget the hubby, go with your girlfriends, it is an excellent night out.You might want to bring some Depends....
Once again, thanks to Social Queen Erin for arranging the whole night!

I'm going to see this movie, even if I have to go alone! Or I'll find a cackler to sit by. :) I heart ABBA, Meryl, and Colin Firth! What more is needed?
You see, I wasn't super interested in seeing this one, but your review has made me change my mind. :) I need to see corny double-0.
