Hi guys!

I had a chance to watch this movie last week. I'd always like musical movie as music just like my heart and soul. My life won't complete without them. From the title itself you will know that it is taken from Abba hit songs in the 70's Mamma Mia. You will see a lot of Abba other hit songs such as Dancing Queen (this is my all time favorite and it's evergreen), I Had a Dream, SOS and many more. For those of you who was brought up listening to Abba, i bet that you'll like this movie. I recommended to all. Here's how the story goes...

MAMMA MIA is about this young girl named Sophie who is getting married. For the past 20 years, she'd been raised by her mother without knowing who her father was. One day she discovered her mother's diary and find entries which describe intimate dates with three men and she believes that one of this men is her father. She invited the three of them to her wedding without her mother knowing.
A day before the wedding the guest start to arrive. This is when all the chaos starts.

I'll always love this two actor, Jack Nicholson and Morgan Freeman. If i'm not mistaken, this is the first time that they'd been acting together. I didn't know that Morgan Freeman can act in comedy stuff but it is sad ending as i'm almost cried lol. Here's the synopsis of the movie.....

Jack Nicholson and Morgan Freeman star as two terminally ill cancer patients who decide to break out of the hospital and live their last days to the fullest in director Rob Reiner’s seriocomic road movie, Edward Cole ( Jack Nicholson) is a corporate billionaire who is currently sharing a hospital room with blue-collar mechanic Carter Chambers (Morgan Freeman). Though initially the pair seems to have nothing in common, conversation gradually reveals that both men have a long list of goals they wish to accomplish before they kick the bucket, and unrealized desire to discover what kind of men they really are. But one can’t accomplise such lofty objectives from the confines of a hospital bed, so now, in order to live their lives to the absolute fullest, Edward and Carter will have to make a break for it. With a checklist that includes playing the poker tables in Monte Carlo, consuming copious amounts of caviar, racing the fastest machines on four wheels, and much more, these two terminally ill men will do their best to fit a lifetime of experience into their last remaining days while forging an unlikely, but truly remarkable, friendship.

Synopsis :

An aspiring medical student whose drug addicted sister has recently died and who may forced to relocate from her posh private school to the crime infested neighbourhood in which she was raised enters a step-dancing competition in hopes of securing the funds needed to continue her education. Unable to afford the tuition needed to fund her private-school education, ambitious teen Raya returns to her family home in the city while reluctantly forced to reevaluate her future. Upon learning that the top prize for an upcoming step-dancing competition is 50 thousand dollars, Raya uses her impressive moves to earn a coveted slot in her good friend Bishop’s predominately male JSJ crew. Isolated from the local females due to jealousy and separated from her fellow dancers by gender, the ambitious dancer is subsequently kicked-off the team for showing off during a preliminary competition.
