Jim and I were set to watch "The Dark Knight" last Saturday night but unlucky us, almost all seats were taken for the last full show at Greenbelt 3. We had no choice but to catch the musical "Mamma Mia!". I can say it was much fun to watch the said movie, and part of that joy was that the film's flashy, raunchy (and I love it that way!) and an ultimate Abba festival!
Meryl Streep was as radiant as ever as she portrayed Donna, the leader of a 1970's act, The Dynamos. She was admirable --- she can belt, she can dance, and she can climb walls and jump on a mattress uninhibitedly! Her back-up singers, Christine Baranski and Julie Walters, did stellar performances also. The newcomer, Amanda Seyfried can definitely carry a tune. She's adorable! The 1 hour and 48 minute movie was worth it, except for the few instances that Pierce Brosnan sang, haha! I'm not surprised that as of today, it raked $62 million at the box office. If you wanna be in the mood for some "Dancing Queen" moments, go watch this one. I bet you'll have that LSS (last song syndrome) going on! :-P
