How do you turn the hit songs of ABBA into a cohesive story? You have a wedding where the bride doesn't know which of three possible men is her father, you have a mother who was the lead singer in a music group in her younger years, you set the whole thing up on a beautiful small island in Greece and you just go with it.

Mamma Mia was completely fun in a major way. It wasn't just the music that made the movie, the cast was spectacular as well. Oscar winner Meryl Streep heads the cast of the film, playing the role of single mother Donna Sheridan. Pierce Brosnan, Colin Firth and Stellan Skarsgård play the three potential fathers to Donna's daughter Sophie (Amanda Seyfried). But the real show stealer was hunky newcomer Dominic Cooper in the role of Sky. Lauded for his role in the play, The History Boys, he was later proclaimed a Breakout Performer by Rolling Stone Magazine. Christine Baransky also puts in a stellar performance as Tanya. The role was reminiscent of her part in the Birdcage.

The setting of the movie is a breathtaking Greek Isle and the crystal clear waters of the Aegean Sea. So you've got the music of ABBA, a star studded cast and for a backdrop one of the most beautiful spots on Earth. The only thing that could go wrong would be the story line and fortunately that worked as well. The story is as hilarious as it can be. When three possible fathers show up to walk the bride down the aisle the laughs just keep coming.

But the real magic is in the music. While all of the music is great, there are three songs with a huge cast of people from the village that really get you. At the end of the movie, the audience stayed in their seats and watched the credits role by listening to more ABBA hits. When Waterloo started playing the audience clapped along.
