Blame us for being too young, but when we saw Mamma Mia!, we thought MILFS and DOLM (dirty old leading men). But don’t trust us. We didn’t even catch it in the cinema, and the live streaming video we watched through the Internets was 30% darker, had 50% crappier audio, and was thousand times smaller than the big screen. We didn’t even have dates, so that makes us douche reviewers. But anyway, this isn’t about us. This is about the movie our moms would probably see for a nostalgia date with our dads, if any. We’re sensitive about broken family issues, you know?

After all, it’s about this girl (Amanda Seyfried) who invites three possible dads during her wedding. And we don’t think her mom’s a slut, not at all. Meryl Streep will bring The Devil if you do. What happens is they sing. Thank you for the music that made us forget about any plot whatsoever. And they dance in trannylicious drag queen costumes. Over and over. If you’re a huge ABBA fan, the whole frenzy would give you a high. But if you’re expecting some Bond flair, be ready to get pierced through your eardrums.

What we’re saying is go see it with your mom. Chances are she’ll buy its soundtrack and you’ll be waking up to ABBA in the morning. It will put her in a good mood so you get less nagging and maybe you could get some oversleep allowance too. If the craze goes on, she’ll take some ballroom class and, if she’s single, maybe bring home a new dad too. Just don’t expect too much. You see, Mamma Mia! used to be just a song.
