I've seen the ads for this so-called movie; even without seeing it, I endorse this review. The movie looks canned, stupid and asinine-and those are the kindest words I can say about it.
That the ABBA music is in it makes it even worse. I can't imagine what they must have paid the ABBA songwriters, Benny and Bjorn, but it must have been enough for them to stop wincing every time they hear the songs mangled beyond belief.
I've heard that the stage musical is better. I can only hope so, because it has people who can sing in it. Pierce Brosnan singing? Meryl Streep dances and sings? There is a plot to it?
What a pathetic waste of money and energy. I'll keep listening to the original music and ignore what some producers think is entertainment.
