Summer movies
Jul. 25th, 2008 10:54 pmI've seen "The Dark Knight", "Hancock", "Kung Fu Panda", "Indiana Jones", "The Incredible Hulk", and "Iron Man" so far this summer, but tonight I've seen my favorite of the summer: "Mamma Mia". For one thing, it's the only movie of the summer that's about women, adult women having a great time with each other, who are not afraid to be silly, and who are willing to dance all over the place as dancing queens. I love the musical numbers, with lots of people dancing away (in particular the boys dancing in their swim flippers) happily. People are in love, but don't have to get married to be in love. What a happy, fun movie.
(There were a couple of cons: I did like the play better, and I don't think Pierce Brosnan can sing, but hey, he's Pierce Brosnan.)
