Rating: 8/10 (27 September 2008)

seeing all the commments out there. i just couldn't resists not writing my own comment about the movie. just one word, FABULOUS !!!!! the plot was quite good. the acting was fantastic, the song..... out of this world (of course i'm a ABBA fan), the singing was excellent ...... in every characters own way.
just one thing i felt about this movie was, it is too rush. the plot can be expanded more. every songs interval is too short making the movie look like it is just rushing through. thats me feeling not everyone opinion is the same. if the plot can just expand and not be restricted by time limit, the show will be fanstatica!!
THis is the first show i ever experience (somemore is in Malaysia!!!)where all the audiences regardless of all background were so engrossed. i was in the cinema watching when sitting behind me were this group of monkeys making so much noise that i just wish i can slap them. BUT when the movie started they were so quite i can hear pin fall on the CARPET!! they were so engrossed that they do not relieased they are singing along with the movie!!
This is the first time all the audiences in the cinema singing along the movie not knowing it.they even sang louder than the show itself. I'm not making it up, REALLY!! esp the ending song"i have a dream" everyone were singing along just as if they were Sofie. OMG OMG!!better still, no one left during the credits, they just stay back and enjoy the music and the fuuny acting on the screen. First time, man..... First time!!!
The acting was fanstatic, esp on some part of the show where i could just feel how Donna felt when she sang that song "Slipping through my fingers" how worried a parents will be as though i'm Sophie's parent. And also how frustrated was Donna when she sang "The winner takes it all" i almost shed some tears over her frustration. She captivated me, the acting was very pure and beautiful.
About Pierce Brosnan singing....... well , one thing for sure he can't hit high notes. But his Baritone (if i'm correct) was almost prefect. abit scrachy and rough but OK for a man in his 50's singing. he is good not bad. he is getting a 6/10 from me esp for the part he sang "SOS". but for the "our last summer".... eeekkkk. need practise..... a lot..... But we can be sure why he was once voted sexiest man alive, he is just too cool and sexy.
one more thing the ending a abit shaky. not really stable, as though they are just going to simply end this show. (i mean the part before Sophie sang "i have a dream."
overall : i'm giving 9/10 -the reason was the show managed to captive the heart of the audience which is the most important for all movies.
You must watch it, don't miss out on this.
