Ready on a colorful Greek island, the plot serves as a background for a wealth of ABBA songs. A immature woman about to exist married discovers that any one of three men could be her father. She invites all three to the wedding without telling her mother, Donna Sheridan (Meryl Streep), who was in one case the lead singer of Donna and the Dynamos. In the concurrently, Donna has invited her dorsum-upwardly singers, Rosie Mulligan (Dame Julie Walters) and Tanya Wilkinson (Christine Baranski). —jojo.acapulco@gmail.com

Super Pooper
Let me tell you lot. Just considering I've been listening to ABBA most non-end since I saw MAMMA MIA! two days ago does not mean I enjoyed the film all that much. It'southward only the Swedish pop super group'due south music is so darn infectious. You would call back that energy would translate to feel-corking good time at the movies but sadly this is not the case. Commencement fourth dimension feature filmmaker, Phyllida Lloyd, spends far too much fourth dimension dragging her anxiety when they should be dancing up and down the beach and no matter how many shots of the moonlight shimmering against the waves there are, the film is all the same a clunker instead of a stunner.
When a musical is newspaper sparse on the stage, it runs the risk of being just plain silly on the screen. On the stage, MAMMA MIA! is a somewhat justified excuse to revive a bunch of ABBA tracks wrapped into a completely implausible, overly romantic farce. Young Sophie (played on screen by Amanda Seyfried) is but 20 and about to marry the very supportive and very handsome, Sky (Dominic Cooper). Something is missing though. Sophie has lived on this tiny Greek island her entire life and helped run a aging hotel with her mother, Donna (Meryl Streep) but she has never met her father. As far equally she knows, he left before her mother could say anything to him but a chance encounter with her female parent's diary from the summer of her conception narrows the possible men to iii. And so rather than talk to her female parent about her desire to know where she came from, she invites all three men (Pierce Brosnan, Colin Firth and Stellan Skarsgard) to her wedding, pretending to be her mother looking for a reunion. Naturally all three men accept the invite and hijinks ensue. While the campiness of the whole affair is forgiven on stage because the break of disbelief doesn't apply, this screen version is too far removed from the stage to feel the least bit plausible.
I believe in angels, something good in everything I meet. And while there is very little good to focus on in MAMMA MIA!, at to the lowest degree at that place is always surprising Streep. She jumps upwards and downwardly on beds, slides down banisters without the least bit of business organization for breaking her hip. She can sing likewise. Much like she did in THE DEVIL WEARS PRADA, Streep's performance as the lonely female parent of the bride carries the film forward and, in the show stopping "The Winner Takes It All", elevates the picture to heights it could never take accomplished without her participation. Though the two don't go nearly plenty screen time together, Streep and Seyfriend make a corking female parent/daughter combo. Seyfried's fresh exuberance seems like it might actually be inherited from her movie mom. The residue of the cast delivers varying results – Julie Walters clearly thinks she is a comic genius but she comes off too brash; Christine Baranski is miscast every bit an older bombshell making for some peculiarly bad-mannered moments with younger men; and someone should ensure that Pierce Brosnan never sings on screen over again.
Ultimately, MAMMA MIA! never connects all of its components. A melodramatic moment is followed by a peppy ABBA song, which somehow erases everyone's pain. In that sense, ABBA's music is the perfect choice to ready the tone every bit it is some of the most depressing pop lyricism fix to upbeat melodies in pop history. While the contrast adds weight to the songs themselves, the musical masking casts an air of falseness that never lifts. What your left with is a compilation of poorly choreographed, patently sung music videos. No offence, Meryl, merely you lot are long past your MTV days.
