Typical you
wait 20 years for a father and
then three
show up at once.
I have
not watched the musical. It never attracts me as I am not a
fan of ABBA.... I guess that's why people like making movies.
I was interested because it's a movie. It staged in one of
the beautiful Greek islands. It has Meryl Streep. It
has Colin Firth who can really sing!. It has Pierce Brosnan.
And the girl Amanda Seyfried is beautiful and sweet.
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, a
loving fiance, and happy friends -- but one thing has been missing
all her life: a father.
Her only wish now is to be given away by her
dad at her wedding. By reading her mother's diary she discovers
that she has three possible fathers. Sophie then secretly invites
all three men to the wedding in a desperate bid to discover which
of them is her father before the wedding bells start to chime!
But not all goes according to plan: old
loves are re-kindled, new loves are formed, and Sophie risks
everything to discover the true identity of her father.
Featuring the songs of ABBA, and based on
the world's number one musical comedy which has people dancing in
the aisles every night, this movie is sure to be the hit of Summer
2008!
