sewlinzi Posted July 24, 2008 Report Share Posted July 24, 2008 Go and see Mamma Mia!! Such a feelgood factor... the cinema was packed out and we had to book. Great songs, great actors, gorgeous scenery, FUNNY and everyone clapped at the end. I haven't seen such a good film in ages - we came out singing and laughing. People have critcised Pierce Brosnan's singing but I thought it quite gravelly and gorgeous! There was even nice fabric... do you think if I go and live in Corfu and put on my dungarees Pierce would come and sing to me?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Renae Posted July 24, 2008 Report Share Posted July 24, 2008 I haven't seen the movie yet but I was in New York and saw Mama Mia on Broadway..........WOW!!!!!! :D:D IT WAS AWESOME!!!!!! EXCITING! FANTASTIC! WONDERFUL! MUSICAL! FOOTSTOMPING! and every other adjective you can think of to describe it. It just makes you want to get up and dance and smile from ear to ear and be happy!! So I have to agree with you Linzi......the house was packed and everyone was having a good time. Renae Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karen in Georgia Posted July 24, 2008 Report Share Posted July 24, 2008 I was dragged unwillingly to see Mama Mia this past weekend and came out singing and dancing too! I loved it. It was so much fun. I'd even go see it again! Karen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dtreusch Posted July 24, 2008 Report Share Posted July 24, 2008 I've been thinking about going to see it. Thanks for the great review. Now I'm going for sure!! Debbi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bonnie Posted July 24, 2008 Report Share Posted July 24, 2008 And to think with all the hipe coming out of Hollywood that its not worth seeing..the critques all hate it, said it was a bad bad idea to have the Broadway producers be involved...now see this is why when a critque starts to poop poop something I'm the first one in the door, because they are usually wrong.

bobbi Posted July 24, 2008 Report Share Posted July 24, 2008 I learned a long time ago to not listen to the "critics" what do they know anyway? I think they just push the movies THEY like, probably paid by the company that made the movie! It's always better to see it and decide for your own self. I've been looking forward to seeing Mama Mia - so Linzi, thanks for that great review! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quilting Heidi Posted July 24, 2008 Report Share Posted July 24, 2008 I saw it last weekend and I too enjoyed it...Pierce can sing to me anytime...he is just so good looking that I can over-look the bad singing voice! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmcclannan Posted July 24, 2008 Report Share Posted July 24, 2008 I saw the Broadway show a few years ago and it was awesome. Some friends and I are going to the movie next weekend and I can hardly wait. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phyllis Posted July 24, 2008 Report Share Posted July 24, 2008 My daughter is going to take me to see "Mama Mia" tomorrow night as a belated birthday present. Love it when she does that as my husband isn't much on going to the movies. Can't wait! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maree Posted July 25, 2008 Report Share Posted July 25, 2008 I went with some girlgriends last week. It was the best movie I had seen for ages. I could have sat and watched again. The singing was done with such emotion. Meryl Streep has so much energy. I have put my name down for the DVD but it hasn;'t come to Tasmania yet. Go see it if you get the chance.

judysmith Posted July 26, 2008 Report Share Posted July 26, 2008 Mama mia here we go again ... wish I could remember more words to the songs! It was criticised here too for being directed as if it was a stage show. I think that's what actually made it such a charming movie. Judy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beachbobbinquilting Posted July 27, 2008 Report Share Posted July 27, 2008 I am going tomorrow to see it, but I can tell you all my friends that have seen it love it.....forgot those critics....you go for what you love...a good time! and fond memories and happy music! :cool::cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmcclannan Posted July 27, 2008 Report Share Posted July 27, 2008 I saw the movie last night and the critic who said Pierce Brosnan can't sing had to be a guy. My eyes were so busy eating him up that my ears weren't working at all. :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phyllis Posted July 27, 2008 Report Share Posted July 27, 2008 I loved it! Meryl Streep was her usual fantastic self and Pierce Brosnan was wonderful too. He's such a cutie. Thumbs down to the critics. What do they know? Obviously nothing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
