chickencam Posted June 13, 2009 Share Posted June 13, 2009 and it was pretty good. OH had to ply me with alcohol before I would but it was quite fun really except for that Bronsnan guy oh boy he can't sing I see what everyone meant now I was a big big ABBA fan as a teen and I thought the film would be awful but in a kitch way it was great Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted June 13, 2009 Share Posted June 13, 2009 HOW has it taken you so long?? I don't DO films but I managed to see this about 8 times during the flights to and from Disney at Xmas and again on the recent "Butlins at sea" holiday on Grand Princess (how tacky was it leaving france waving Union Jacks and singing Rule Brittania - oh but soooo much fun!) I thought it was rubbish to start with but it grew on me. Never had a clue who that Brosnan bloke was til someone told me - first time I've ever seen him!

Seagazer Posted June 14, 2009 Share Posted June 14, 2009 I'm off to see the stage show next weekend (weekend away with OH) in London, can't wait. The show is supposed to be really good Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sam Palmer Posted June 14, 2009 Share Posted June 14, 2009 We only got around to watching it at new year when my mum brought it on holiday with us and 'made' us watch it. (My brother-in-law was art director on it too and that didn't induce us to watch it!). Have to say, once I got over thinking how cheesy it was, I thoroughly enjoyed it. I work at school with a young girl with Downs Syndrome and she just adores it. She got the DVD for her birthday and watches it over and over and sings along to all the songs. I think it's joint favourite with Mary Poppins! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

craftyhunnypie Posted June 14, 2009 Share Posted June 14, 2009 Oh I love it & the scene where she sings ' the winner takes it all' just makes me have a lump in my throat - a tear jerker, as I see my 'old self' in her. Really nice setting for a film too. Emma.x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
