And ha ha, I'm sorry about that! :) Yeah, you’re exactly right Melanie – Mamma Mia definitely has the same type of appeal as the 1st Austin Power film or Snakes on a Plane – well worth spending an hour and a half in a cinema!

If so, then I'll have to check it out. :) Btw, I love your blog. You've got me hooked, lol. So bad that it’s brilliant, kinda like Austin Powers (the 1st) or Snakes on a Plane?

I didn't know Sean Connery could sing - not bad at all! I guess he must have typecast himself following the Bond films into being more of an action hero and left his singing behind... Ha ha, sorry about that Michael!

Oh thanks, John. Now you've spoiled three movies for me. ;-) He wouldn't be the first Bond to sing in a movie, either. Sean Connery has done it as well http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wA45t2BLvbo >> right up there with realising who Keyser Söze was in The Usual Suspects or that Bruce Willis was dead all along in The Sixth Sense!

There was no way I was going to see a chick-flick like that. My good wife has seen it three times. So your post is the catalyst. I'm going to bite the bullet, take a good dose of "tongue in cheek" and go and see it. Regards Neil John, as they say in this part of the world “Good on ya” :)

The latter provides a lot more laughs for sure! Well Mary Poppins is a lot more slick and polished and lacks the rawness of Mamma Mia. The latter provides a lot more laughs for sure!
