Customer Ratings & Reviews

Was surprised in the first scene! I guess I did not realize it was a full-blown musical with all Abba music. It was a little corny but I suppose a good movie for young girls

Wife bought it thinking it was a continue of another movie

Didn't care for all singing or plot of story but was fair

Forget the critics, forget the ABBA haters. This is a joyful, fun and even moving version of the stage bonanza. The Greek Island locations couldn't be more perfect. As for those who say the stars can't sing? Meryl is dynamite. Her Winner Takes It All is amazing. And what fun she has throughout the film. Baranski is a well known Broadway Musical Star and she can sing. Brosnan? He's got a gruff sound, but he sure acts the songs wonderfully. Watching MAMMA MIA is like observing a great party that you wish you were invited to.

Bought the CD as soon as it came out and enjoy the songs a lot. Fun to sing to. After viewing the movie, said -"can't wait till the DVD comes out, I'm buying it." I enjoy watching a movie sometimes that you don't have to concentrate on 100% so you don't miss some important event. This is a movie you can play and clean house to or some other project. Enthusiastic music, lively, peppi. Even if you don't enjoy musicals you can enjoy this one.

AS an ABBA fan, it was fun to have their music put together in such an imaginative way. I enjoyed the locations and the character development. However, some of the plot was a bit far fetched. It was also fun finding Benny and Bjorn in two cameo appearances. If only Frida and Agnetha could have done the same. I would recommend this to anyone having a bad day or just needing an escapist type movie. Meryl Streep and Amanda Seyfried did an amazing job!

Anyone will like this movie it's not just a chick flick. Meryl Streep amazed me with her preformance in this film. I think it's her best one yet! Everyone says she can't sing or dance well after watching this movie she can! The songs aren't annoying like most musicals are. They tell a story and the singers are playing out the lyrics as they go. It's a very entertainging movie. Meryl Streep should be proud of herself.

I saw this show when it hit the Theatres. I was surprised to see the different age groups that came to see this show. I saw it 5 times while it was in the theatre and no one walked away bored. Love the movie, the actors and the songs..... Especially, Love the Scenes at the end while the credits are running.... Wonderful!!

This film is nothing more than sheer fun and excitement! Reviewers try to tear it apart and can't get past the simple fun it consists of; I think one critic put it best by writing, "it's a vacation." That's exactly what this movie is about; just a little less than a two-hour escape from reality. The film is chalk-full of ABBA songs and if you don't like their music, then do not watch this movie!

This movie wasn’t terrible, but it was still a major disappointment. I am a HUGE Abba fan and I can honestly say that this movie is an injustice to their music. Casting was completely WRONG When I heard that Meryl Streep was in this, I immediately thought “Huh… I didn’t know Meryl Streep could sing.” And guess what? SHE CAN’T! And Pierce Bronson’s voice was so grating! But at least he’s semi-pretty. So I can forgive him. But there was one thing that really bothered me. Donna was in her FORTIES when she gave birth to Sophie! Why was she disowned? Shouldn’t her mother be glad that’s her daughter finally gave her a grandchild? She probably had given up hope! And the dot, dot, dot bit was cute. But less cute when you realize it’s a forty year old woman writing that! And her lovers were in their twenties! But of course, they never bring that up, despite how ridiculous it looks in the film. I mean, you can REALLY tell Meryl Streep’s age. Who was the makeup artist for this film? I’ve read reviews that this movie takes place in the 1980’s. If that’s so, then you;ll have to ignore the modern clothes, modern language, and the popularity of the internet! Someone messed up. And the character of Donna was so obnoxious. Even more so, running around in those baggy overalls. What ugly costumes! Meryl Streep seriously needs to think about aging with dignity. It seemed like she was mimicking a 3 year old child in this. She looked even more ridiculous b/c she was acting beside Christine Baranksi, the epitome of talent, beauty, & sophistication. In fact, the only mature actress who could get away with Donna’s silliness would be Diane Keaton. She’s talented and lovable. Streep is not. Then randomly at the end, Colin Firth likes men? Okay, so he did say that he hasn’t love another woman since Donna and he has dogs instead of children – but I wouldn’t call those hints. He usually does a better job at choosing roles, so it’s shocking that this movie was so bad. I’m an Abba fan, and I still disliked this film. But the movie does redeem itself at the end, when Colin Firth dancing in Abba attire. If I had to recommend this movie, it would only be for that scene alone. Amanda Seyfried gave a great performance. Her fiancé was a little off. But Christine Baranski definitely stole the show! She has never looked so good! The most talented actors come from Buffalo, NY! She can brighten up the cruddiest movies! Her character was a good one to play. I love, love, love musicals, but this was disappointing. The actors couldn’t sing, nor dance. I can’t believe this was theatrical. It really seemed like a made for TV movie. Even the extras were just “blah.” I can sing along without any help. However, this is the type of movie my grandmother would enjoy. And if you’re mad at your boyfriend, make him sit through this. HA! That will fix him!

If you are looking for high art, look elsewhere. If you are looking for an upbeat mood elevator that does not challenge your brain, this is perfect. Totally fun!

this is the best movie ever.great casting meryl streep,my fav actress,amanda seyfriend,she is reallygood,and peirce brosnan,i love him cant wait till it comes out on dvd

Really a good musical. I found my foot tapping to many of the songs. Be sure to watch all of the credits at the end. There are some great musical numbers.

I liked the movie. However, I loved the play more. There were some songs that weren't in the movie that was in the play. I saw the play about 6 times. Three times in London, twice in NY and once in Washington.

This movie was great! Meryl Streep was spectacular, as always, and so was Amanda Seyfried. Very impressive. Some actors lacked in singing talent though, but oh well I guess. Overall a very pleasant movie.

My family loves Abba. Meryl Streep performance is excellent. Blue Ray quality is excellent. Best Buy has the best price.

The music is by far the single most important element of the movie. If you had not listened to any ABBA, this will light your fire.

This is a great musical, fun to watch and great soundtrack to sing along with. Beautiful in Blu Ray.

If you like ABBA you will like this movie. The whole album is sung throughout.

Never saw the movie or play before. found it very enjoyable. Love the music from ABBA.
