Mammmma Mia........Mia.....Mia....

On Saturday afternoon when it was raining in Duluth, another couple and Bob and I went to an afternoon movie matinee. It's been a long time since we've been to the movies, but I have been wanting to see "Mama Mia" for a long time. It's been here for a long time, and I have been afraid it would soon leave. I've heard good things about it. I wanted to see the live show in Las Vegas the last time we were there, but it was sold out. Anyhow, my husband of course would never want to see it, (a musical you know, and a "girl" movie), so my friend and I went to Mama Mia and the guys went to "Righteous Kill" (one I know I wouldn't be interested in, even if it does have both DeNiro and Pacino both in it).

We absolutely loved Mama Mia. My friend has had a tough couple of weeks, especially last week, and I told her I knew that the movie would be just what she needed, and she told me I was right. We really enjoyed it (and who knew Meryl Streep could sing like that...she did her own singing!). (However, we thought that Pierce Brosnan could have used a few more singing lessons, but we'll forgive him, since he's SO good looking!) We sang, laughed and just had a ball, and we weren't the only ones in the theater to do so. We came out of the movie singing the Abba songs (yes, you know them too, even if you think you don't). The guys were ready to throw us out of the car!

They told us they loved their movie....said it was really good. But, of course, us girls KNEW OURS was the best!

"MAMA MIA" - the highlight of our weekend! All you women go see it, you won't be sorry!
