20 year old Sophie (Seyfried) is preparing to marry her boyfriend Sky (Cooper) at her mother’s hotel on an island in Greece. She seemingly has it all; a carefree life, loving boyfriend and happy friends but one thing has been missing all her life; a father. I have to admit that when we decided to see Mama Mia! , my family and I wasn’t sure what I would make of it at all.

I suppose that's a change from "Rocher", who is not a character in the film.

I heard that people hated Mamma Mia! I had a morbid curiosity to see if it was as atrocious as everyone thinks. The movie is not schlock, but it's not Moulin Rouge! quality either. I'm sorry, Hugh Jackman, but the musical is not all the way back. First, I heard about the Broadway production on... Read Full Story
