Mamma Mia

The CB's took in the new movie, Mamma Mia, the other night with some friends and had a blast. Okay, it's not going to be an Oscar award-winning film, but it's definitely a fun time at the movies. Meryl Streep is actually very good and certainly throws herself into the role. As her sidekicks, Christine Baranski and Julie Walters, are great, and the three lead men are adorable. Pierce Brosnan is a pretty bad singer, but he gives it all he's got and it works. The young girl who plays the lead is perfect, and her fiance (who was in the original History Boys on Broadway) is very cute. The scenery is to die for. Be sure to stay all the way through the closing credits to see them all in crazy ABBA spandex costumes!
