We went to see the Mamma Mia! movie (based on the broadway musical, which uses and is inspired by Abba's songs) and it was great. Even SJ liked it and was singing the Dancing Queen as we left :)
It has a great cast, with Meryl Streep as the single mother (Donna Sheridan), Pierce Brosnan, Colin Firth and Stellan Skarsgard as the possible fathers to her daughter.
For a short plot summary, Donna and her daughter Sophie live on a Greek Island and run a B&B. Sophie is getting married and wants her father to be there, but after finding her mother's diary, she has 3 possible contenders without telling her mother. Songs, singing, and dancing ensue.
My favourite part by far was hearing Pierce Brosnan and Colin Firth singing. You can only imagine that they were persuaded on to the film because of the cast and the idea of a mini paid vacation to Greece with lots of merriment, but it at least shows that they don't take themselves too seriously.
