I don't know if this has been mentioned yet...
Mamma Mia is the fastest selling DVD in the UK and it was in the cinemas far longer than The Dark Knight.
Pierce Brosnans singing is so bad, it's good.

If no one is around, it's fine.
Sing along to your hearts content.

Karma for you for being able to admit this  TeddyR

I generally avoid all musicals so I have not, and likely will never see it.  The idea of creating a story around ABBA music also just does not do anything for me.  I don’t change the station when they are on but I don’t seek them out either. 

I am most likely going to watch Sweeny Todd (with Johnny Dep) at some point when a friend of mine and I can get together to watch it.  He has badgered me into giving it a shot.

I've seen the stage play twice (once in Boston and once in Las Vegas) and the movie once.  The stage play was very well done (I liked the Boston production a bit better than the Las Vegas production).  The movie isn't as good as the play, but it's okay.  But you MUST watch it to hear Pierce Brosnan singing.  I assume it's his real voice because it is absolutely terrible.  Everyone in the theater started laughing when he broke into his first song.

My wife owns this POS film. She loves it. Granted it's like nails grating on a chalkboard to me. I would rather drive nails into my head that suffer through it.

The wife and I saw this on Broadway and I just didn't get into it.  I don't like Abba to begin with.  Then a few weeks ago she caught the movie on HBO.  First watching she said she didn't like it but sadly it grew on her.  Luckily she seems to be over it.

Although I've done musicals on stage in the past (Local productions, and things of that sort) I generally tend to avoid the movie musicals, because they just seem more forced and hackneyed than their stage counterparts.  Even Sweeny Todd was a bit of a let down for me, now that I look back.  It was basically a very watered down version of the stage show.  I understand that you can't put all of what was on stage in the film, and that in itself is the problem I have with movie musicals in the first place. 

As for Mama Mia...I never liked the play to begin with, and it made me even madder that it was nominated for so many Tony Awards.  It was all part of the very cheap and disturbing trend of basing plays on things that are already popular, whether they lent themselves well to musicals or not. 

So, I will never see the movie version, and from the sound of things, I made the right choice.

I'm hoping they make a movie version of THE JERSEY BOYS . . . and also hoping they don't screw it up.  So far, it's my favorite stage play.  I've seen it twice and would gladly shell out another $100+ to see it again.

Seriously. This movie is f-ing stupid. It makes no sense, and worst of all the song gets on my last frickin nerves. I know i should say the full word but this movie has just left me speechless. Gayest movie ever.

We watched this one when my sister rented it for a get-together.

I admit to liking it "okay," especially as a full-family time-waster.  I certainly did not hate it as many here (including some who have never seen it...   Lookingup  ) apparently do.

Oh well.
