Great music but... um, yeah.

Rating: 2/10 (27 June 2020)

Come on now. I know it's a musical and there will be songs and all but seriously, that's virtually all there is. The music takes up so much of the movie that there isn't any time left to tell an actual story. But maybe that's a blessing, because the little bit of 'plot' we are left with is absolutely pathetic and a stain on the resumes of all involved. The whole experience feels like a Meryl Streep mid-life crisis and the karaoke scenes are a complete embarassment. Yes I know this is supposed to be 'a bit of fun' but you could get all the same enjoyment by watching an ABBA concert on youtube and sparing yourself the ridiculous celebrity posturing.
