I felt good for hours

Rating: 9/10 (6 July 2008)

Although the stage show had not met my expectations, especially in the second half which demanded higher acting skills, when I saw the trailer for the movie, I decided to go see if a cast of actors would do better than the cast of singers and dancers. And they most surely did! The movie is so much fun, while managing to bring out feelings related with love of different kinds, friendship, youthful spontaneity and coping with middle age. The singing wasn't perfect - I still can't decide on the proper word to describe Brosnan's attempt at it - but no one in the theater seemed to mind. The acting, especially from Streep was just simply enjoyable,the script had many exceptionally good moments, the music familiar and uplifting, the scenery was beautiful, but at the end of it all, it was FUN! I strongly recommend it!
