They are the men that her mother 's diary reveals could have been her father : Irish - American architect Sam Carmichael, Swedish adventurer and writer Bill Anderson, and British banker Harry Bright. She dreams of being given away by her father at her wedding, and believes that after she spends time with them she will know which is her father. Sophie 's mother Donna, who owns a villa and runs it not very successfully as a hotel, is ecstatic to reunite with her former Dynamos bandmates, wisecracking author Rosie Mulligan and wealthy multiple divorcée Tanya Chesham - Leigh, and reveals her bafflement at her daughter 's desire to get married. Donna shows off the villa to Rosie and Tanya. The three men arrive and Sophie smuggles them to their room. She does n't reveal that she believes one of them is her father, but does explain that she and not her mother sent the invitations. She begs them to hide so Donna will be surprised by the old friends of whom she `` so often '' favorably speaks. They overhear Donna working and swear not to reveal Sophie 's secret. Donna spies them and is dumbfounded to find herself facing former lovers, demanding they leave. She confides in Tanya and Rosie that she truly does not know which of the three fathered Sophie. Tanya and Rosie rally her spirits by getting her to dance with an all female ensemble of staff and islanders. Sophie finds the men aboard Bill 's yacht, and they sail around Kalokairi, telling stories of Donna 's carefree youth. Sophie plans to tell her fiancé Sky about her ploy, but loses her nerve. Sky and Sophie sing to each other, but Sky is abducted for his bachelor party. At Sophie 's bachelorette party, Donna, Tanya, and Rosie perform. When Sam, Bill, and Harry arrive, Sophie decides to talk with each of them alone. While her girlfriends dance with the men, Sophie learns from Bill that Donna received the money for her villa from his great - aunt Sofia. Sophie guesses she must be Sofia 's namesake. She asks him to give her away and keep their secret until the wedding. Sophie 's happiness is short - lived as Sam and Harry each pull her aside to tell her they are her father and will give her away. Sophie, overwhelmed by the consequences of raising the hopes of all three `` fathers '', faints. In the morning, Rosie and Tanya assure Donna they will take care of the men. Bill and Harry intend to tell each other what they learned the previous night, but Rosie interrupts them. Donna confronts Sophie, believing Sophie wants the wedding stopped. Sophie says that all she wants is to avoid her mother 's mistakes. Sam accosts Donna, concerned about Sophie getting married so young. Donna confronts him and they realize they still have feelings for each other. Tanya and young Pepper continue flirtations from the previous night. Sophie confesses to Sky and asks for his help. He reacts angrily to Sophie 's deception and she turns to her mother for support. As Donna helps her daughter dress for the wedding, their rift is healed and Donna reminisces about Sophie 's childhood. Donna admits her mother disowned her when she became pregnant. Sophie asks Donna to give her away. As the bridal party walks to the chapel, Sam intercepts Donna, who reveals the pain she felt over losing him. Sophie and Donna walk down the aisle as the band plays. Donna tells Sophie and all gathered that her father could be any of the three men. Sam reveals that while he left Donna to get married, he did not go through with it, but returned to find Donna with another man. The men do not want paternity confirmed, each agreeing to be one - third of a father for Sophie. She tells Sky they should postpone their wedding and travel the world. Sam proposes to Donna.

Production The Agios Ioannis chapel during filming of the wedding scene for Mamma Mia !. Most of the outdoor scenes were filmed on location at the small Greek island of Skopelos ( during August / September 2007 ), and the seaside hamlet of Damouchari in the Pelion area of Greece. On Skopelos, Kastani beach on the south west coast was the film 's main location site. The producers built a beach bar and jetty along the beach, but removed both set pieces after production wrapped. A complete set for Donna 's Greek villa was built at the 007 stage at Pinewood Studios and most of the film was shot there. Real trees were utilised for the set, watered daily through an automated watering system and given access to daylight in order to keep them growing. The part of the film where Brosnan 's character, Sam, leaves his New York office to go to the Greek Island was actually filmed at the Lloyd 's Building on Lime Street in the City of London. He dashes down the escalators and through the porte - cochere, where yellow cabs and actors representing New York mounted police were used for authenticity. The movie was filmed in the Greek island of Skopelos The Fernando, Bill Anderson 's yacht ( actually a ketch ) in the film was the Tai - Mo - Shan built in 1934 by H.S. Rouse at the Hong Kong and Whampoa dockyards. Meryl Streep took opera singing lessons as a child, and as an adult, she previously sang in several films, including Postcards from the Edge, Silkwood, Death Becomes Her, and A Prairie Home Companion. She was a fan of the stage show Mamma Mia ! after seeing it on Broadway in September 2001, when she found the show to be an affirmation of life in the midst of the destruction of 9 / 11. Release Though the world premiere of the film occurred elsewhere, most of the media attention was focused on the Swedish premiere, where Anni - Frid Lyngstad and Agnetha Fältskog joined Björn Ulvaeus and Benny Andersson with the cast at the Rival Theatre in Mariatorget, Stockholm, owned by Andersson, on July 4, 2008. It was the first time all four members of ABBA had been photographed together since 1986. Home Media In November 2008, Mamma Mia ! became the fastest - selling DVD of all time in the UK, according to Official UK Charts Company figures. It sold 1,669,084 copies on its first day of release, breaking the previous record ( held by Titanic ) by 560,000 copies. By the end of 2008, the Official UK Charts Company declared that it had become the biggest selling DVD ever in the UK, with one in every four households owning a copy ( over 5 million copies sold ). The record was previously held by Pirates of the Caribbean : The Curse of the Black Pearl with sales of 4.7 million copies. In the United States, the DVD made over $30 million on its first day of release. By December 31, 2008, Mamma Mia ! became the best - selling DVD of all time in Sweden with 545,000 copies sold. Reception Box office Mamma Mia ! grossed $144.1 million in the United States and $471.6 million in other territories for a worldwide total of $615.7 million, against a production budget of $52 million.

When released on July 3 in Greece, the film grossed $1.6 million in its opening weekend, ranking # 1 at the Greek box office. The film made $9.6 million in its opening day in the United States and Canada, and $27.6 million in its opening weekend, ranking # 2 at the box office, behind The Dark Knight.

Critical response Pierce Brosnan 's singing was heavily panned by critics On Rotten Tomatoes the film holds an approval rating of 54 % based on 179 reviews, with an average rating of 5.5 / 10. The website 's critical consensus reads, `` This jukebox musical is full of fluffy fun but rough singing voices and a campy tone might not make you feel like ' You Can Dance ' the whole 90 minutes. '' On Metacritic, the film has a weighted average score of 51 out of 100, based on 37 critics, indicating `` mixed or average reviews ''. Audiences polled by CinemaScore gave the film an average grade of `` A -- '' on an A+ to F scale. BBC Radio 5 Live 's film critic Mark Kermode admitted to enjoying the film, despite describing the experience as ' the closest you get to see A-List actors doing drunken karaoke '. Peter Bradshaw of The Guardian was more negative, giving it one star, and expressed a `` need to vomit ''. Bob Chipman of Escape to the Movies said it was `` so base, so shallow and so hinged on meaningless spectacle, it 's amazing it was n't made for men ''. The Daily Telegraph stated that it was enjoyable but poorly put together : `` Finding the film a total shambles was sort of a shame, but I have a sneaking suspicion I 'll go to see it again anyway. '' Angie Errigo of Empire said it was `` cute, clean, camp fun, full of sunshine and toe tappers. '' The casting of actors not known for their singing abilities led to some mixed reviews. Variety stated that `` some stars, especially the bouncy and rejuvenated Streep, seem better suited for musical comedy than others, including Brosnan and Skarsgård. '' Brosnan, especially, was savaged by many critics : his singing was compared to `` a water buffalo '' ( New York Magazine ), `` a donkey braying '' ( The Philadelphia Inquirer ) and `` a wounded raccoon '' ( The Miami Herald ), and Matt Brunson of Creative Loafing Charlotte said he `` looks physically pained choking out the lyrics, as if he 's being subjected to a prostate exam just outside of the camera 's eye.
