This has to be one of my favorite movies. I can watch it multiple times and be smiling the whole time. If you are looking for something serious with tons of special effects, forget it....but if you are like me and just want to be entertained and walk away feeling like you did in the 70's, then this is for you. Is the singing perfect? NO. Meryl and Amanda do a great job, but others not so great. YET who cares? I am not looking for perfection. It is real with a touch of great imagination. Not to mention the wonderful scenery, which is worth seeing just for it alone. I enjoyed the way the songs wove into a story that worked, almost like an opera. I also liked the closing scene with some of the original ABBA (think he was also playing the piano on the water scene where women all jumped in) and Meryl Streep all done up and asking "if we want it".....GREAT FUN and GREAT ENTERTAINMENT.

Mamma Mia...Wow!!

Mamma Mia is such a fantastic film...This two disc DVD set covers everything that you could possibly want. Meryl Streep, Pierce Brosnan, Amanda Seigfreid and the rest of the cast was brilliantly cast in the perfect roles for them...Highly Recommended...This is the feel good movie of the year!

This is a beautiful musical. The cinematography alone makes you want to live this story. While others argue whether or not the "older" stars of this movie should have been cast, I feel the movie wouldn't have been the same without them. To me it makes the story much more realistic than having better trained singers in their roles. Funny thing is, I was never an Abba fan until this movie came out ...
