Mamma Mia!

Mamma Mia! What can I say? Get yourself out with your best girlfriends, leave the kids with the husband, grab a box of Junior Mints (always my movie-watching candy of choice) and go enjoy this movie. There were several points in the movie when I looked around the theater to see almost everyone's toes tapping or seats rocking. It's impossible to watch this flick and not have a great time. The scenery is breathtaking, the acting superb, and the music top-notch. Now, I must tell you, it was a teensy bit hard not to giggle when Pierce sang, only because it just didn't quite seem right to me, but I still enjoyed his character nonetheless. Meryl, ah Meryl, gave a fantastic performance -- I've always liked her; she definitely seems the sort of person that you totally wish was your aunt or good friend or something and that surely she would be such an interesting and fun gal to hang out with.
