1.5 stars out of 5
On our trip to California for Thanksgiving, we were exposed (for better or worse) to a lot of movies. First up, Mamma Mia. The basic plot is that a girl is getting married and wants to invite her father, but she doesn't know who her father is. So she raids her mother's journal and finds the three men who might be her father and invites them to the wedding. Sound bad? Yes indeed.
The only thing really going for the movie is the ABBA music interspersed throughout the movie. It kind of has the feel of a musical, but not nearly as good as any musical I have ever seen. I found most elements of this movie revolting: plot was terrible, characters shallow, acting subpar, views on marriage, sexuality, etc. - ridiculous. There is really no reason to ever subject yourself to this movie. If anything, it will give you a bad association with some decent ABBA music.
