chiquitita tell me the truth…

Written by Lauren. Filed Under review, summer, thoughts

Okay, the truth? Here goes:

Mamma Mia is an amazing movie!!! Mom and I went last night and let me tell you- it was like one big party. We’ve seen the play in Toronto, but that was too long ago to remember, and I’m so glad they made a movie! From the set, to the actors to the costuming (ESPECIALLY the costuming- simply amazing!), this movie had me and mom going from laughing hysterically and singing to almost crying. I was pleasantly surprised by Amanda Seyfried’s performance though. I remember her from Mean Girls and Alpha Dog, and in those movies she was acting as kind of a (excuse my language), slut. haha. In this movie she was the cutest thing ever! You can probably see this from the picture though. Mom is a huge fan of Meryl Streep also, and said it was nice to see her in a happy, mom role, instead of a serious role, like in The Devil Wears Prada.

If you are planning on going to see it, you HAVE to stay to watch the credits! They are HILARIOUS!

Oh I saw this with my Parents and they loved it. They were so happy I dragged them to see it and I’m happy too. I completely agree with your review. Amanda was quite cute in this movie!

I love the new header!! And I have yet to see the movie, but I think you and I have similar taste in movies so I am more compelled to see it now than I was before. Thanks Lau!

I think this is the place for something Lauren said to me on Saturday:
“I got a new dress, then when I watched Mamma Mia their clothes all looked like my new dress, and I was sooooooooooo happy!!” hahaha.
