Mama Mia!



I just wasted my nap to watch this movie. Not a good move-E (Did you see what I did there?). I don't know what I was expecting- it is a musical and I am less than fond of most musicals.

Mama Mia!. The story of a girl in search of the father she never met. And ends up with three. Shoot. I hope I didn't just blow the movie for you. Well, now you don't have to see it.

Although the cast was star-studded and did include one of my all time favorite actors, this movie was l-a-m-e.

The most entertaining part of the film was unfortunately, I'm sure, not meant to be entertainingly funny. Pierce Brosnan singing. ...That's too bad.

I don't know. I guess it was okay for what it was. I'm sure I'm just a cynic, but when I watch a movie- even a Broadway adaptation of a movie, I expect for it to feel like a movie. I had the same problem with The Producers and I'm not even going to try and watch Rent. Much too campy. I'll wait until David can take me to New York or at least Vegas.

What it is worth to me:

Maybe seeing it in person. I hope the film didn't blow it for me.
