Mamma Mia! (RT 55%)

The Multiverse of Movie Mothers #2

"A sage once advised being wary of movies in which the people on screen are having more fun than the people in the audience. MAMMA MIA, was that good advice."

Kenneth Turan of the Los Angeles Times is a bit of a fuddy duddy when it comes to Meryl Streep dancing with her ladies and having sex with a few men in this jukebox musical... and no, one hose didn't know what that term was but he immediately imagines a similar adaptation of GOOD WILL HUNTING with the musings of Elliot Smith.

Pretty much the same thing we get here with Pierce Brosnan, Colin Firth and Stellan SkarsgÄrd vying for the title of Amanda Seyfried's father. Imagine Ben Affleck in this. I am. Right now.

Enjoy!
