This was a very pleasant surprise for my wife and myself. It is a completely enjoyable film from the first moment to the last. Fabled songs, good scenery, great choreography, entertaining storyline. Two very lovely actresses (who were unknown to me). A truly gay time (in the correct meaning of the word). It is an unrivalled experience of unalloyed pleasure in every particular and the best film I have ever seen!

This was such a big let down.I was hoping for something along the way of "Mamma MIA",and "Rock of ages" but no it was a huge mess.The movie starts awesome the opening song was good and it looked promising it went on and when it came to the second song things started to fall flat.But after the song things picked up again until 30min into the movie.And then things went down hillcompletly.The songs didn't fit with the story it looked like they must picked songs and sung it between every 5 min.I had such i hopes for this movie but it turned out to be a huge f up.Further a rarely give movies a 1 bc even if a movie is bad there's always something that can push the number hp to at least a 3 but this movie had none i thought that the music would make up for it but even that did t help. AND who makes a musical movie with Leona Lewis and not even giving her a full song This movie BLOWS i am very disappointed.

This film is hopelessly twee, predictable, soul destroying and awful. Admittedly I don't like musicals making me biased but even by the those standards this film is painful to watch.That said if you disconnect your brain and just want to watch something quite happy this film might be for you. The singing is OK the actors annoying but I suppose they are doing their job to the best of their abilities. This film is exactly what it appears though, personally I am only watching it because my girlfriend is insisting and I find it cathartic to publish my thoughts on this mind numbingly bad experience..Makes me weep for the species.

Watchable... Nice settings, photography. Songs was best of overplayed Radio songs of the 80's. However... this film reminded me of a "The Asylum" film studio production of an attempt capitalize on the Video sales of "Momma Mia"! The problem is it is not an Asylum Film's production.What is missing from this modern nostalgia musical was the 'Major Actors' which the audience could immediate identify with. I felt as if some kids got together and said.. "Ha, we can do that and we don't even have to hire FAMOUS actors"... the attempt failed. As for why "Momma Mia" works and this musicals fails is, I guess it is easy to forgive "James Bond" or "Karen Silkwood" for not having the any musical ability or voice. It's not so easy to forgive basically "unknowns" actors for destroying the songs we have heard so often. I can not say "Songs we Love"... this may also be a bit of the problem. Though the songs were 'Radio Play' hits... the songs lack the cohesion of being by one "Group" like Abba in MM. A few songs I loved, but some I actually hated having to hear again and even cringed at hearing song so off key.All is not lost, as stated, it is a watchable movie. Musicals seldom are box office draws. I must really applaud even this attempt which is better than many NEW Musicals.
