Mamma Mia introduces today's generation to Abba. The movie is a crash course on Abba's gold album. I guess the way things are going, Abba will never go out of fashion.
I remember during my studying days in the UK, Abba mania was kept alive by pop groups through covers of the original. The covers of course never came close to the originals. Even in the disco's you could see people dancing to 'Dancing Queen'. I know your wondering about the disco's that I went to....
On my second stint at sea, my chief officer was an Abba fan, so was the Captain and they made sure I knew more about Abba than the ship I was on.
Back to the movie, Meryl Streep is awesome. Pierce Brosnan looks in pain when singing. Julie Walters, extremely funny. A must watch for Abba fans and those who dont love musicals.
