Outstanding and well worth watching Sep 24, 2009 "Mama Mia" is one of those movies that you almost have to warn people about watching. BEWARE....it's addictive!!! I've shown the movie to people who were adamant "chick flick" haters who came away absolutely beaming. It genuinely makes you feel good....but now for the down-side. The music is very hard to get out of your head. We all found ourselves humming the songs off and on for over a week. Then, just when we thought we were over it....the music would come back to us, and darn it all if we didn't just start feeling good all over again. Now those are the kind of after effects I can handle.
will make you sing along Sep 24, 2009 this will make you sing along. I've almost worn out the cd from playing it so much. Will definitely lift your mood and brighten your day. I was surprised at the singing fromthe cast members, good job.
Just as wonderful... Aug 27, 2009 Just as wonderful as the movie! In fact the soundtrack made the movie! ABBA Rocks!
A pleasant surprise Aug 13, 2009 I must admit, I approached the movie, and the soundtrack, with some reservations. I knew that Meryl Streep could sing (she sings quite well, actually, in both "Postcards from the Edge" and "Prairie Home Companion"), but I love ABBA. The first time I watched the movie, I must admit I cringed a few times. Pierce Brosnan cannot be considered a great singer (or even, frankly, a good one), but he threw his heart into his songs, which makes up for a lot. You can't really sense that on the CD. The weakest singer is Stellan Skarsgard, probably, but as he usually speaks his lines in the songs, it isn't too bad. Colin Firth surprised me with both his singing and guitar playing in "Our Last Summer". Yes, he did both. The standout song is Amanda Seyfried and Dominic Cooper playing the young lovers singing "Lay All Your Love On Me". Both have very good voices. And Meryl singing "Slipping Through My Fingers" is poignant without being cloying, while her "The Winner Takes it All" is raw with repressed emotion.
The thing is, the CD can't effectively present some of the songs. I'll buy it, because I now have the DVD and can imagine the songs from the movie while listening to the CD. I'm waiting for the full soundtrack, however! The movie grows on you, as you let go of your preconceptions from the bad reviews, or you just decide to enjoy it as a guilty pleasure.
