¿Saben esos días libres dónde puedes ver una película? En estos días me pasó, me prestaron una cuenta de Amazon prime y entre las películas que quería escoger para ver, escogí "mamma mía" porque me la recomendaron y dicen que es buena. Yo debo verla y entenderla para poder dar una reseña exacta, así que me puse a verla y aquí les cuento.
La película "Mamma mía!" Está acondicionada a una comedia musical tipo High school musical o The Grand Showman, me gusta porque todo llega con música pero me cuesta entender la trama.
Meryl Streeph y Amanda Seyfried protagonizan de está manera una comedia musical anteriormente mencionada, inspirada en canciones de la banda "Abba" famosa de los años 70.
Fue estrenada el 24 de octubre de 2008 en Venezuela y obtuvo dos nominaciones en Golden Globes
You know those days off when you can watch a movie? That happened to me recently. Someone lent me an Amazon Prime account, and among the movies I wanted to choose to watch, I chose “Mamma Mia” because it was recommended to me and they say it's good. I have to watch it and understand it in order to give an accurate review, so I started watching it, and here's what I think.
The movie “Mamma Mia!” is similar to musical comedies like High School Musical or The Greatest Showman. I like it because everything is accompanied by music, but I find it difficult to understand the plot.
Meryl Streep and Amanda Seyfried star in this musical comedy, inspired by songs from the famous 1970s band ABBA.
It premiered on October 24, 2008, in Venezuela and received two Golden Globe nominations.
Donna, una hotelera independiente de las islas griegas prepara la boda de su hija con la ayuda de dos viejos amigos. Mientras tanto, Sophie, la alegre hija de Donna, tiene su propio plan. Invita a la boda a tres hombres del pasado desu madre con la esperanza de conocer a su padre biológico para que la acompañe al altar.
Y me encanta porque me conecto mucho con la protagonista, solo imagina lo bello que es vivir en esos lugares y que estás próximo a casarte con 20 años. Mientras trataba de entender la trama de la película, me disfrutaba cada puesta en escena de las músicas de Abba y ahí comprendo porque se ha vuelto popular en redes sociales como tik tok o por qué lo veo en las canciones que colocan en los reels de Instagram.
Donna, an independent hotelier on the Greek islands, prepares for her daughter's wedding with the help of two old friends. Meanwhile, Sophie, Donna's cheerful daughter, has her own plan. She invites three men from her mother's past to the wedding in the hope of meeting her biological father so that he can walk her down the aisle.
And I love it because I really connect with the main character. Just imagine how beautiful it is to live in those places and be about to get married at 20 years old. While I was trying to understand the plot of the movie, I enjoyed every scene set to ABBA songs, and that's when I understood why it has become popular on social media like TikTok and why I see it in the songs they put on Instagram reels.
La verdad debo mencionar de esta película que me gustó muchísimo las escenas de músicas de la banda musical de los 70 llamada Abba, aunque de repente la película ya no quedó en Amazon prime para terminar de verla la dejé por la mitad. Debo considerar que es buena, sin embargo, no me quedé viéndola tan menudo. Debí darle una segunda oportunidad, porque la idea es que la historia te atrapé y a mi sinceramente no me atrapó. Debo mencionar también que es una historia romántica no tan romántica combinado con musical.
I must mention that I really liked the scenes featuring music by the 1970s band Abba, although suddenly the movie was no longer available on Amazon Prime, so I left it halfway through. I think it's a good movie, but I didn't watch it very often. I should have given it a second chance, because the idea is that the story should draw you in, and honestly, it didn't draw me in. I should also mention that it's a romantic story that's not so romantic, combined with a musical.
En fin, hay una segunda película llamada "mamma mia! Otra vez" que si se ve en la lista de Amazon prime así que, la veré. Espero les haya gustado, nos vemos pronto !
Anyway, there's a second movie called “Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again” that's on Amazon Prime, so I'll watch that. I hope you liked it, see you soon!

›[ESP- ENG] 🎥🎬 My Opinion About: Mamma Mía! 💃🏻🎤@kiutvariedades329d
¡Hola queridos usuarios de Hive ✨💕!
Hi dear Hive users ✨💕!
¡Hola Hola Comunidad! ✨, la reseña de hoy realmente considero que tuvo que llegar mucho antes, y es que la película de la cual hablaré es considerada en la actualidad como un clásico, o al menos una película conocida por muchos, y aunque yo sabía de su existencia, por alguna razón que aún sigo sin entender no había tenido la oportunidad de verla, ésto cambió una noche que ví en un vídeo de tik tok que la estaban recomendado y caí en cuenta que no había motivo alguno para continuar sin verla 🤣, es por esa razón que hoy hablaremos sobre Mamma Mía! 💃🏻🎤.
Hello Hello Community! ✨, today's review I really think it had to come much earlier, because the film I'm going to talk about is now considered a classic, or at least a film known by many, and although I knew of its existence, for some reason that I still don't understand I hadn't had the chance to see it, for some reason that I still do not understand I had not had the opportunity to see it, this changed one night I saw in a tik tok video that it was being recommended and I realized that there was no reason to continue without seeing it 🤣, is for that reason that today we will talk about Mamma Mia! 💃🏻🎤
Donna es una madre soltera y dueña de un pequeño hotel ubicado en una exótica isla griega en donde se ha encargado de criar y ver crecer a su única hija Sophie, quién próximamente dirá el sí, acepto en el altar, por lo que ahora que se avecina una boda, madre e hija no solo están ante la presencia de millones de preparativos sino también de una enigmática pregunta que parece no tener respuesta: ¿Quién entregará a Sophie en el altar?, pues durante años Donna ha ocultado la identidad de su padre, pero eso está por cambiar.
Luego de haber leído el diario de Donna, ahora Sophie tiene 3 posibles padres a quienes decide invitar a su boda sin decirle nada a Donna, ahora no solo hay caos por la boda sino también por la presencia de éstos 3 hombres que vienen a recordarle a Donna su pasado.
**Donna is a single mother and owner of a small hotel located on an exotic Greek island where she has been in charge of raising and watching her only daughter Sophie grow up, who will soon say ‘I do’ at the altar, so now that a wedding is looming, mother and daughter are not only in the presence of millions of preparations but also of an enigmatic question that seems to have no answer: Who will give Sophie away at the altar? For years Donna has hidden the identity of her father, but that is about to change.
After reading Donna's diary, Sophie now has 3 possible fathers whom she decides to invite to her wedding without telling Donna, now there is not only chaos over the wedding but also the presence of these 3 men who come to remind Donna of her past.
💃🏻 UNA HIJA, UNA BODA Y TRES PAPÁS || ONE DAUGHTER, ONE WEDDING AND THREE DADS 🎤
Ésta película se encuentra basada en un musical y cuenta con la increíble música del grupo ABBA, por lo que si es primera vez que escuchas de ésta historia de una vez te advierto que se trata de un musical, y empiezo con ese detalle porque justamente eso es lo que me impedía ver ésta película pues realmente a mí no me gustan del todo los musicales, así que ¿Por qué decidí darle una oportunidad? la respuesta es sencilla, me encanta la música del grupo ABBA 🤣 así que terminé disfrutando toda la historia porque justamente se cuenta a través de la música.
This film is based on a musical and has the incredible music of the group ABBA, so if it is the first time you hear this story at once I warn you that it is a musical, and I start with that detail because that is exactly what prevented me from seeing this movie because I really do not like musicals, so why I decided to give it a chance? the answer is simple, I love the music of the group ABBA 🤣 so I ended up enjoying the whole story because it is told through the music.
He de admitir que el ritmo que lleva en cuanto a relato/diálogos y musicalización se siente agradable hasta aproximadamente la mitad de la película, pues ya cuando nos acercamos hacía el final yo personalmente sentí que ya eran demasiadas canciones en un rango de tiempo muy corto, es decir llegó un punto en el que ya no había nada de diálogo y todo era música y eso me hizo pensar que el tiempo de película se estaba acabando y necesitaban meter todas las canciones que faltaban, pero tengan en cuenta que es la opinión de alguien que no es fan de los musicales.
I have to admit that the rhythm of the story/dialogue and musicalisation feels pleasant until about halfway through the film, because when we approached the end I personally felt that there were already too many songs in a very short range of time, that is, there came a point where there was no more dialogue and everything was music and that made me think that the film was running out of time and they needed to put in all the missing songs, but keep in mind that this is the opinion of someone who is not a fan of musicals.
Las actuaciones me parecieron increíbles, sí es verdad que hay momentos en los que se sienten muy dramáticas y eso te puede hacer sentir que están exagerando las actuaciones, pero a medida que la historia se va contando entendí que justamente ese era el objeto en algunos personajes, porque a fin y al cabo toda la película es una puesta en escena musicalizada, así que eso desde mi perspectiva hace que la actuación sea perfecta, además la mayoría de los actores y actrices que participan son conocidos por mí así que conozco la calidad de su trabajo, y conocerlos fue lo que me hizo entender el objetivo de ésta dinámica y me hizo confirmar que efectivamente tienen un nivel actoral increíble.
I thought the performances were incredible, yes it is true that there are moments when they feel very dramatic and that can make you feel that they are exaggerating the performances, but as the story is told I understood that this was precisely the object in some characters, because at the end of the day the whole film is a staging set to music, so from my perspective that makes the acting perfect, also most of the actors and actresses who participate are known to me so I know the quality of their work, and knowing them was what made me understand the objective of this dynamic and made me confirm that they do indeed have an incredible acting level.
Los roles protagónicos están a cargo de Meryl Streep y Amanda Seyfried como Donna y Sophie, y debo decir que su trabajo es impecable, no solo por la actuación sino también por la interpretación musical que realizan, todas sus presentaciones son una joya imperdible en ésta película, y logran transmitir el significado de ésta historia. Una de las cosas que más me gustó de ésta película es que, aunque hay historias de amor en la trama, éstas son secundarias porque el verdadero mensaje está en el amor entre madre e hija, a lo largo de la historia las vemos discutir por diversas razones, por temas de la boda, por lo innecesario que encuentra Donna el matrimonio, por la presencia de éstos 3 hombres, por la necesidad de Sophie de saber quien es su padre, entre otros; hasta llegar al punto álgido de la trama: aceptar que siempre serán Donna y Sophie, la una para la otra 💖, y ese a miyme parece que es la mejor enseñanza que podía dejar ésta película.
The leading roles are played by Meryl Streep and Amanda Seyfried as Donna and Sophie, and I must say that their work is impeccable, not only for the acting but also for the musical performance, all their performances are a must-see gem in this film, and they manage to convey the meaning of this story. One of the things I liked most about this film is that, although there are love stories in the plot, these are secondary because the real message is in the love between mother and daughter, throughout the story we see them argue for various reasons, for issues of the wedding, for how unnecessary Donna finds marriage, for the presence of these 3 men, for Sophie's need to know who her father is, among others; until reaching the climax of the plot: to accept that they will always be Donna and Sophie, one for the other 💖, and that seems to me to be the best teaching that this film could leave.
La escenografía siento que es un punto ambiguo de la película, y es que hay momentos en donde se ve espectacular y con un cuidado al detalle increíble, y en otras tomas se ve medio chafa más como una escenografía de recital escolar que como el de una película, no logré entender si había un propósito detrás de eso, solo sé que no me convenció del todo. En cuánto a la calidad del diálogo, yo no suelo fijarme mucho en eso (a menos que sea notoriamente horrible) y además en ésta película lo que realmente tiene importancia es la música, es a través de ella que se cuenta toda la historia, y el diálogo se usa más como elemento de conexión entre la musicalización.
I feel that the set design is an ambiguous point of the film, and there are moments where it looks spectacular and with an incredible attention to detail, and in other shots it looks more like a school recital set design than a film set design, I couldn't understand if there was a purpose behind it, I just know that it didn't convince me at all. As for the quality of the dialogue, I don't usually pay much attention to that (unless it's notoriously awful) and besides in this film what really matters is the music, it's through the music that the whole story is told, and the dialogue is used more as a connecting element between the musicalisation and the film.
Si eres una persona que disfruta los musicales y aún no viste ésta película, de verdad no entiendo porqué no ha pasado, pero si como yo no eres alguien completamente fan de éste tipo de historias, puedes confiar en mí cuando digo que puedes llegar a disfrutar ésta película, aunque claro yo amo el grupo musical ABBA así que quizás no sea alguien confiable para recomendar ésta historia 🤭, sólo sé que debo repetirla para poder ver la segunda parte 🤭.
If you are a person who enjoys musicals and you haven't seen this movie yet, I really don't understand why it hasn't happened, but if like me you are not a complete fan of this kind of stories, you can trust me when I say that you can enjoy this movie, although of course I love the musical group ABBA so maybe I am not someone reliable to recommend this story 🤭, I just know that I must repeat it to be able to see the second part 🤭.
›CineTV Contest: Mamma Mia ~ A Musical Romance Comedy Film.95@bisolamih456d
Hello, great movie lovers. The year is running by so fast and one important thing I learned is that not only money makes you happy. Even watching a good and interesting film will make you happy and truly, there is that movie that keeps me happy whenever I see it on my television screen.
Even though there are so many movies that makes me happy and put a smile on my face, there is still no movie that makes me happy than Mamma Mia!
Mamma Mia is a musical comedy film directed by Phyllida Lloyd which centers around a bride who wishes to know her biological father.
Movie Plot
The bride-to-be Sophie Sheridan exposes to her friends and bridesmaids about inviting three men who she thinks one of them is her father to the Greek Island of Kalokairi without letting her mother, Donna know about it. Her aim was to make sure that one of them gives her away to the groom-to-be.
The three men are Sam Carmichael, Bill Anderson, and Harry Bright. Even though Sophie never knows who her biological father is, she decided to keep them in Donna’s goat house even without her knowledge.
Finally, Donna sees herself facing her three ex lovers and feels distressed about their presence. For the second time, Donna falls in love with Sam again and they both got married while Sophie’s wedding ceremony was postponed.
The three men decided not to have a paternity test so they all agreed to be one-third fathers of Sophie.
What I loved or hated about the movie
Before revealing what I love, maybe what I hated should go first which is absolutely nothing. Even though I can’t call this a totally perfect movie, I still do not hate anything about this movie that makes me happy.
What I loved about it is how Sam Carmichael and Donna reconciled. I’m an advocate for love and if it is possible, I don’t ever want people to get separated. I really loved how Donna and Sam got back together.
Another thing which I loved about it is how the three men came to conclusion that Sophie’s paternity test won’t be done. That shows that they all love her and want to father her so that’s beautiful to know. It’s very rare in my part of the world to see that happen.
It’s so funny how you may link up with your ex today, you two get talking and get back together. That’s to show that love never fades. Even though you feel you both have been apart for the longest time, you guys can still get back together.
I think this movie inspires me to say that never quarrel nor hate your ex and that’s because you two may become lovers again tomorrow. Love works like magic.
What part of it do I find interesting?
A part which I’ve felt before. It reminds me of my past experience when I met two of my exes in an elevator. My favorite part is where Donna sees her three exes in her goat house.
She was overwhelmed and confused. That was like the most awkward moment in her entire life. It’s interesting because I wondered what will happen at that moment.
Was a fight going to break out? Were the men going to fight over her or what was going to happen? These were the questions that ran through my mind. I guess that’s the part with the most suspense in the movie and that’s why I find it most interesting.
If you want to watch a movie that’s going to make you happy, you can go for this and you will so much enjoy it.
I will rate this movie 9.5/10. You may want to know why I rated it that high because it is worth it.
This is my entry for the CineTV contest. Thanks to you all for reading.
As time passes, it is difficult to avoid the impression that rock 'n' roll is one of the most overrated cultural phenomena of the 20th century. This once heretical view is best confirmed by the fact that ABBA, the Swedish band known for its sugary pop songs, still captivates audiences today as it did in the 1970s, while Led Zeppelin, Deep Purple, and their contemporaries, once hailed as masters of rock, live only in the nostalgic niche ghettos of television channels like VH1.
In 1999, a stage musical composed solely of ABBA's greatest hits became one of the world's sensations. Although there had been films based more or less on the music of this Swedish group before—most notably the Australian black comedy Muriel's Wedding from 1994—it was inevitable that this theatrical piece would receive its film adaptation. Given all of the above, it was equally inevitable that Mamma Mia! would become the most successful Hollywood musical of all time, grossing nearly $700 million.
The film's plot unfolds on the small Greek island of Kalokairi, where 20-year-old Sophie Sheridan (played by Amanda Seyfried) lives with her mother Donna (played by Meryl Streep), who owns a local hotel. Sophie is about to marry young Sky (played by Dominic Cooper), but before that, she wants to discover who her father is. After finding her mother's diary, she decides to invite three possible candidates to her wedding: Swedish adventurer Bill (played by Stellan Skarsgård), banker Harry (played by Colin Firth), and architect Sam (played by Pierce Brosnan). The trio arrives on the island believing they have been invited by Donna. To keep her company, Donna's old friends—celebrity chef Rosie (played by Julie Walters) and free-spirited divorcee Tanya (played by Christine Baranski)—join her.
The plot, inspired by the 1968 Hollywood comedy Buona Sera, Mrs. Campbell featuring Gina Lollobrigida, can be described as lightweight and filled with clichés that even writers of ancient comedy might recognise. On the other hand, this framework is sturdy enough to accommodate as many as 22 ABBA songs in the film.
Phyllida Lloyd, who directed the first stage version of the musical, lacks significant experience in film or television, but viewers are unlikely to notice. Many scenes are surreal and absurd yet quite imaginative, including musical numbers literally accompanied by a Greek chorus. Fans of ABBA and musical theatre should find satisfaction—if only producers hadn't come up with the not-so-bright idea for every actor to not only act but also sing their roles.
In some cases, this wasn't too bad, as with Seyfried, who boasts an impressive voice. Meryl Streep, known for her gravely serious acting roles, had already showcased her singing talent in Postcards from the Edge and A Prairie Home Companion, while Christine Baranski is a pleasant surprise. However, for viewers who value their ears, Pierce Brosnan's singing—or attempts at singing—will be a significant challenge. The result resembles scenes from karaoke bars in late-night hours and represents a violation of European cultural heritage.
Fortunately, Brosnan's role is relatively limited; thus, regardless of whether nostalgia for ABBA resonates or not, audiences will generally have reason to be pleased with this light-hearted yet charming product of Hollywood entertainment.
Ten years later, a sequel titled Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again was released, becoming another huge success.

Hello friends, today's proposal has been around for a few years, to be precise 16 years, but without a doubt, it is a film that I have cherished since its release. This movie is a safe place to return to when things go wrong or I simply need to cheer up a bit.
Since its release in 2008, “Mamma Mia!” has captured the hearts of thousands of viewers around the world. This musical comedy, directed by Phyllida Lloyd and starring the talented Meryl Streep, takes us on a journey full of music, love, and self-discovery, exploring the beauty of the everyday from a picturesque and, to me, exotic Greek island. Today I want to talk to you about what makes this movie so special to me.
The Story
“Mamma Mia!” is based on the musical of the same name and masterfully uses the songs of the Swedish group ABBA to immerse us in its story.
The main plot follows Sophie (Amanda Seyfried), a young woman who, about to get married and after discovering her mother's diary, decides to search for the identity of her real father. To achieve her goal, she invites three of her mother's former lovers, Donna (Meryl Streep), to her wedding, hoping to discover the truth.
The film not only uses ABBA's music but celebrates it in an explosion of themes as universal as love, family, identity, and inner search. Meryl Streep's performance as Donna is one of my favorites of the actress, endowing the character with a deep emotional charge and a lively and captivating energy. The chemistry within the cast is palpable through the screen, and the choreographies add a very well-achieved dynamism and naturalness.
The Critique
Professional criticism has been mixed in terms of its reception. While some praised the production, energy, and particular charm of the film, others criticized the lack of singing ability of some actors. But honestly, it is difficult to imagine other people than those chosen to embody these characters. Some critics mentioned that the film was not for everyone, although it would have a group of people who would love it, and I think I am in that group. Rotten Tomatoes highlighted that although the plot was irrelevant, the film more than fulfilled its purpose of entertaining, and “Mamma Mia!” is a film that does not pretend to be taken too seriously; its main goal is to make the audience have fun, and in that, it undoubtedly succeeds.
Favorite Musical Numbers and Performances
One of its most vibrant moments is its memorable musical numbers. Here are my favorites:
Dancing Queen: An explosion of pure joy and captivating energy, where dancing and singing throughout the island is simply contagious.
Mamma Mia: Meryl Streep's performance is an iconic scene, capturing a moment of tension, nostalgia, and emotion.
The Winner Takes It All: Emotional and moving, the song alone is already a masterpiece, but the moment and place where it is sung increase its strength and emotion.
ABBA's songs were brilliantly adapted to fit into the film's narrative. Each song feels like a natural extension of the story being told and the characters presented, contributing to the film's progress and development.
Impact and Influence
“Mamma Mia!” introduced ABBA's songs to new generations. This production demonstrated that there is a wide audience interested in musicals based on popular songs, which has led to the creation of other films like “La La Land” and “The Greatest Showman,” influencing popular culture and opening the doors to new proposals on the big screen.
It rescued the fashion of an era, a bohemian and retro style, with special attention to the bright and dazzling costumes of Donna and the Dynamos.
The film's impact on tourism to the Greek islands, especially Skopelos, where many scenes were filmed, has been significant, and perhaps one of my dreams. Many fans visit the island to experience the magic that the film conveys in their own skin.
Final Words
Without a doubt, “Mamma Mia!” stands out above other musicals thanks to all these unique characteristics. Without pretensions, it manages to be more than just a musical film; it is a cultural phenomenon that has left a lasting mark on cinema and popular culture. Its simple but effective success formula lies in its ability to provide us with an entertaining experience, a celebration of the everyday, of music and dance as an expression of our feelings. Personally, I consider it a gem and it holds a very special place in my heart.
I sincerely want to thank you for taking the time to read this article. Your support means a lot to me and motivates me to continue sharing content that can be useful and interesting to you. If you found this article useful or enjoyed reading it, I would greatly appreciate your comments. Best wishes.

Por qué amo Mamma Mia!
Hola amigos, la propuesta de hoy ya guarda unos años, para ser precisos 16 años, pero sin dudas es un filme que desde su estreno guardo con especial cariño. Esta película es un lugar seguro al que regresar cuando las cosas van mal o simplemente necesito alegrarme un poco.
Desde su estreno en el 2008, “Mamma Mia!” se ha encargado de capturar el corazón de miles de espectadores alrededor del mundo. Esta comedia musical, dirigida por Phyllida Lloyd y protagonizada por la talentosa Meryl Streep, nos lleva de la mano a un viaje repleto de música, amor y autodescubrimiento, explorando la belleza de lo cotidiano desde una pintoresca y, para mí, exótica isla griega. Hoy quiero hablarles de lo que hace de esta película algo tan especial para mí.
La Historia
“Mamma Mia!” está basada en el musical del mismo nombre y utiliza magistralmente las canciones del grupo sueco ABBA para sumergirnos en su historia.
La trama principal sigue a Sophie (Amanda Seyfried), una joven que, a punto de casarse y tras descubrir el diario de su madre, se decide a buscar la identidad de su verdadero padre. Para lograr su objetivo, invita a tres antiguos amores de su madre, Donna (Meryl Streep), a su boda, con la esperanza de descubrir la verdad.
La película no solo usa la música de ABBA, la celebra en una explosión de temas tan universales como el amor, la familia, la identidad y la búsqueda interior. La actuación de Meryl Streep como Donna es de mis favoritas de la actriz, dotando al personaje de una profunda carga emocional y energía vivaz y cautivadora. La química dentro del elenco se palpa a través de la pantalla y las coreografías añaden un dinamismo y naturalidad muy logrados.
La Crítica
La crítica profesional ha sido mixta en cuanto a su recepción. Mientras algunos elogiaron la producción, la energía y el encanto particular del filme, otros criticaron la falta de habilidad para el canto de algunos actores. Pero sinceramente, se hace difícil imaginar otras personas que las escogidas para encarnar estos personajes. Algunos críticos mencionaron que la película no era para todos, aunque sí tendría un grupo de personas que la amarían, creo que me encuentro en este grupo. Rotten Tomatoes destacó que, aunque la trama era irrelevante, la película cumplía con creces su propósito de entretener, y es que “Mamma Mia!” es una película que no pretende ser tomada demasiado en serio; su objetivo principal es hacer que el público se divierta, y en eso, sin duda, tiene éxito.
Números musicales y actuaciones favoritas
Uno de sus momentos más vibrantes son sus memorables números musicales. Aquí están mis favoritos:
Dancing Queen: Una explosión de pura alegría y energía cautivadora, donde el baile y el canto a través de toda la isla es simplemente contagioso.
Mamma Mia: La interpretación de Meryl Streep es una escena icónica, capturando un momento de tensión, nostalgia y emoción.
The Winner Takes It All: Emotiva y conmovedora, la canción por sí sola ya es una obra maestra, pero el momento y lugar en que es cantada aumenta su fuerza y emoción.
Las canciones de ABBA fueron adaptadas de manera brillante para encajar en la narrativa de la película. Cada canción se siente como una extensión natural de la historia contada y de los personajes presentados, contribuyendo al avance y desarrollo del filme.
Impacto e Influencia
“Mamma Mia!” se encargó de introducir las canciones de ABBA a nuevas generaciones. Esta producción demostró que existe un amplio público interesado en los musicales basados en canciones populares, lo que ha llevado a la creación de otras películas como “La La Land” y “The Greatest Showman”, influenciando la cultura popular y abriendo las puertas a nuevas propuestas en la gran pantalla.
Rescató la moda de una época, un estilo bohemio y retro, con especial atención a los brillantes y deslumbrantes trajes de Donna y las Dynamos.
El impacto de la película en el turismo a las islas griegas, en especial Skopelos, donde se filmaron muchas escenas, ha sido significativo, y quizás uno de mis sueños. Muchos fans visitan la isla para experimentar la magia que transmite la película en su propia piel.
Palabras Finales
Sin dudas, “Mamma Mia!” sobresale por encima de otros musicales gracias a todas estas características únicas. Sin pretensiones, logra ser más que una simple película musical; es un fenómeno cultural que ha dejado una marca duradera en el cine y la cultura popular. Su fórmula de éxito simple pero eficaz radica en la capacidad de brindarnos una experiencia entretenida, una celebración a lo cotidiano, a la música y la danza como expresión de nuestros sentimientos. Personalmente, la considero una joya y tiene un lugar muy especial en mi corazón.

Friends, it's been a long time since I've posted a movie review but I couldn't pass up the opportunity to review a film that I saw on Mother's Day with mine, a film a little old but that serves quite well to pass the time.
Amigos hace mucho tiempo que no publico una review de películas pero no podía dejar pasar la ocasión de reseñar un film que vi el día de las madres junto a la mía, una película un poco antigua pero que sirve bastante bien para pasar el rato.
Overview/Resumen
This film is an adaptation of a Broadway musical based on the songs of Abba, the Swedish pop music band of the 70s. It brings us the story of Donna who is organizing the wedding of her only daughter but suddenly, and for the purpose of the event, three men come into her life who were very important to her as she was romantically involved with each of them although at different times in her life obviously, and in fact her daughter knows that one of them may be her father and that is why she invited them to the wedding. The rest of the story is told in the style of all musicals, using Abba's songs to set the mood, plus the lyrics go very well with each scene they want to represent.
Esta película es una adaptación de un musical de Broadway basado en las canciones de Abba, la banda sueca de musica pop de los años 70. Nos trae la historia de Donna que está organizando la boda de su única hija pero de pronto, y a propósito del evento, llegan a su vida tres hombres que fueron muy importantes para ella ya que estuvo involucrada sentimentalmente con cada uno de ellos aunque en diferentes épocas de su vida obviamente, y de hecho su hija sabe que uno de ellos puede ser su padre y por eso los invitó a la boda. El resto de la historia es contada al estilo de todos los musicales, usando las canciones de Abba para ambientar, además de que la letra va muy bien con cada escena que quieren representar.

My Opinion/Mi Opinión
To be completely honest with you, I am not a fan of musicals, but still I could not resist this one because I love Abba and I wanted to see what they had done with their songs in this film and the truth is that although it does not have a very deep story I think it is a film to have a good time, it is entertaining and has several funny scenes that I enjoyed a lot, the cast is great, we can see Meryl Streep Pirce Brosnan, Colin Firth and of course Julie Walters who I became very fond of through her most emblematic character, Mrs. Weasley in Harry Potter, the locations are beautiful, as they are beautiful Greek landscapes that invite you to relax and the songs are perfectly adapted to each scene, being my favorites Dancing Queen, Mamma Mia and Chiquitita, especially the latter, where Donna's friends try to lift her spirits.
Para ser completamente honesta con ustedes, no soy fan de los musicales, pero aún así no pude resistirme a este porque me encanta Abba y quise ver que habían hecho con sus canciones en este film y la verdad es que aunque no tiene una historia demasiado profunda opino que es un film para pasar un buen rato, es entretenido y tiene varias escenas graciosas que disfruté bastante, el elenco es grandioso, podemos ver a Meryl Streep Pirce Brosnan, Colin Firth y desde luego a Julie Walters a quien le tomé mucho cariño a través de su personaje más emblemático, La señora Weasley en Harry Potter, las locaciones son preciosas, ya que se tratan de preciosos paisajes griegos que invitan al relax y las canciones están perfectamente adaptadas a cada escena, siendo mis favoritas Dancing Queen, Mamma Mía y Chiquitita, sobre todo esta última, donde las amigas de Donna intentan levantar su ánimo.
As for the voices of the actors I can not say that they are the most virtuosic, however there is a scene where I think Meryl Streep put all her soul, is one where she sings The Winner takes it all, as it makes a good combination between her acting skills (which is her forte) and a beautiful voice, she has a very sweet tessitura, but she also knows how to interpret through her voice, she doesn't sing for the sake of singing, she gives the emphasis that each phrase requires and uses vocal resources to transmit the emotion that the character requires, you can notice that she worked a lot with a vocal coah, but at the same time you can also notice all her histrionic experience because it touches your soul.
En cuanto a las voces de los actores no puedo decir que sean las más virtuosas, , no obstante hay una escena en donde creo que Meryl Streep puso toda su alma, es una donde canta The Winner takes it all, ya que hace una buena combinación entre sus dotes como actriz (lo cual es su fuerte) y una hermosa voz, ella tiene una tesitura muy dulce, pero además sabe interpretar mediante su voz, no canta por cantar, le da el énfasis que requiere cada frase y utiliza recursos vocales para transmitir la emoción que requiere el personaje, se nota que trabajó mucho con un coah vocal, pero al mismo tiempo también se nota toda su experiencia histriónica porque te llega al alma.
I don't consider it the best movie in the world at all, but you can have a great time watching it, especially if you like Abba's songs and want to sing them at the top of your lungs while watching the movie, so I recommend it for a weekend. Thank you very much for reading my post, I hope you liked it and thank you very much for giving me a little bit of your time.
No considero que sea la mejor película del mundo para nada, pero puedes pasar un muy buen rato viéndola, sobre todo si te gustan las canciones de Abba y quieres cantarlas a todo pulmón mientras ves la peli, así que se las recomiendo para un finde semana. Muchas gracias por haber leído mi post, espero que les haya gustado y muchas gracias por haberme dedicado un poco de su tiempo.
›Mafia Mamma Movie Analysis and My Thoughts. | Trliste 30 Günlük Serüven Gün #16 | Mafya Anne Film Analizi ve Düşüncelerim.@mehmetfix934d
Hello from the 16th day of the adventure 🤗
How are you feeling today? I hope everyone is well today and you are able to continue your fortune. We are on day 16. We are almost in the middle of the adventure. Time flies so fast, doesn't it? I think yes.
Serüvenin 16. gününden herkese merhaba arkadaşlar 🤗
Bugün nasıl hissediyorsunuz? Umarım bugün herkes iyidir ve servene devam edebiliyorsunuzdur. 16. gündeyiz. Serüvenin neredeyse ortalarındayız. Zaman ne kadar da hızlı geçiyor değil mi? Bence evet.
Do you like sudden events? For example, I'm talking about suddenly going to another city or another country. I generally like this kind of thing. Of course, I love things that happen suddenly, but I never wanted it to be like in this movie. Because that would be really different and bad from my perspective. I don't think going through what the leading lady, Kristin, is going through is exactly the kind of adventure you would call.
Bir anda gelişen olayları seviyor musunuz? Mesela bir anda başka bir şehre ya da başka bir ülkeye gitmekten bahsediyorum. Ben genelde bu tür şeyleri seviyorum. Aniden olan şeyleri çok severim tabii ama bu filmdeki gibi olmasını hiç istemezdim. Çünkü bu gerçekten çok farklı ve kötü olurdu benim açımdan. Kristin isimli başroldeki hanımefendinin yaşadıklarını yaşamak pek de macera denen cinsten şeyler değil bence.
First of all, let's talk a little about the subject of the movie. Kristin, the leading lady of the movie, is a woman who lives on her own and tries to handle things in her life. But one day, he is called by someone and told that he must come to Italy immediately because his grandfather passed away. Kristin decides to go to Italy for her grandfather's funeral. But she is unaware of the events that will confront her there. I think it would be more accurate to call it a series of events rather than events.
Öncelikle biraz filmin konusu hakkında konuşalım bence. Filmin başrolündeki Kristin kendi halinde yaşayan ve hayatındaki bir şeylerin halletmeye çalışan bir kadındır. Ama günlerden bir gün birisi tarafından telefon ile aranır ve dedesi vefat ettiği için hemen İtalya' ya gelmesi gerektiği söylenir. Kristin dedesinin cenazesi için İtalya' ya gitmeye karar verir. Ama orada onun karşısına çıkacak olaylardan habersizdir. Olaylar değil de olaylar silsilesi desek daha doğru olur sanırım.
Kristin only goes there because of her grandfather's death and the vineyard, but that's not actually the case. There he encounters something completely different. There, her grandfather is actually the mafia and Kristin has to replace his grandfather. So this is Kristin's grandfather's will. Let's see what happens when Kristin becomes the head of the mafia group. I also have to say that since I will be giving my opinions about this movie, I may give some spoilers. So you can learn something about the movie. That's why I recommend you watch the movie first. It's already a fun and beautiful movie.
Kristin sadece dedesinin ölümü ve üzüm bağı için oraya gider ama aslında olay bu değildir. Orada bambaşka bir şeylerlel karşılaşır. Orada aslında dedesi mafyadır ve Kristin' in dedesinin yerine geçmesi gerekiyor. Yani bu Kristin' in dedesinin vasiyeti. Bakalım Kristin mafya grubunun başıan geçince ne olacak. Ayrıca şunu söylemem gerekiyor ki bu film hakkındaki fikirlerimi de söyleyeceğim için biraz spoiler verebilirim. Yani film hakkında bir şeyler öğrenebilirsiniz. O yüzden önce filmi izlemenizi tavsiye ederim. Zaten eğlenceli ve güzel bir film.
Kristin is a smart woman, but there are also times when she can be a little naive. When Kristin learns that she will be the head of one of the most powerful mafias in Calabria, I don't think she is shocked, just surprised. Because she seems like someone who is not aware of the things she is going through. You can understand this from the names he makes in the movie.
Kristin akıllı denebilecek bir akdındır ama biraz saf olduğu zamanlar da var aslında. Kristin Calabria' daki en güçlü mafyalarından birisinin başına geçeceğini öğrenince şok olmak dediğimiz tabirde şok olmaz sadece şaşırıyor bence. Çünkü sanki biraz yaşadığı şeylerin farkında olmayan birisi. Zaten filmde yaptığı adlandırmalardan da bunu anlayabilirsiniz.
Kristin is a woman who was cheated on by her husband and that's why she is very sad. In fact, her visit to Italy was necessary and good for her change, but as it turns out, it is not so good because Kristin is caught between both assassinations and armed conflicts in the first days of her arrival. I'm sure being in such a situation is something he or any other person would never want. I think this movie is very good and you should definitely watch it.
Kristin kocası tarafından aldatılmış bir kadın ve bu yüzden de çok üzgün. Aslında İtalya ziyareti onun değişimi için gerekli ve güzeldi ama görüldüğü gibi pek de güzel değil çünkü Kristin geldiği ilk günlerde hem suikast hem de silahlı çatışmalar arasında kalıyor. Böyle bir durumda kalmak eminim onun veya başka bir insanın hiç istemeyeceği bir şeydir. Bu film bence çok güzel ve kesinlikle izlemelisiniz.
›"Mama Mia!" by Phyllida Lloyd: A Musical Movie that Can Make You Smile and Cry@afterglow976d
Greetings!
In the 1980s I began to hear some beautiful songs on our radio like Mama Mia, Super Trouper, Dancing Queen, and Chiquitia. I do not know who sang those songs but I do like them because they are so beautiful to hear. And then slowly but surely I came to know who sang them, it was ABBA. Also, I did not know what the nationality of ABBA was, until, again, slowly but surely I came to know that they are from Sweden and they are married couples.
How amazing I told to myself. A music group can be composed of two married couples, just like ABBA. As of the moment, and to be honest, I do not know of any music group composed of two married couples after ABBA.
There is no doubt that ABBA is one of the most successful music groups ever. I think up until now there is a stage musical called Mama Mia! touring around the world. As successful as ABBA is I am not surprised that there will be a movie about their songs. In 2008 it happened just like that, a movie titled "Mama Mia" was released and some of the famous names acting in the movie were Pierce Brosnan, Amanda Seyfried, and Meryl Streep.
The narrative of Mama Mia is a fun, romantic, sad, happy, and amazing musical movie about the story of a woman whose daughter's father is unknown and there are three possible fathers of the daughter. It was revealed in the movie that the daughter invited all three of them. How did she know the names? Watch and find out.
Sam Carmichael, one of the possible father of the daughter
Bill Anderson, one of the possible father of the daughter
Harry Bright, one of the possible father of the daughter
I like the first songs of ABBA that were used in the opening of the movie, the song fits perfectly. The first scenes put a very wide smile on my face about the three possible fathers of the daughter. I love it when the young versions of the three men are shown in the movie giving us an idea of how they look like when Donna fell for them. I loved it when Harry played the guitar and then sang. The writer did a fantastic job is incorporating the song into the script of the movie. In the early part of the movie, it showed that it is indeed it is a musical movie.
Midway into the movie the Super Trouper is sung and performed by Donna and her two friends, I must say that I love it, the song is just fantastic, and the way it was performed is so amazing it captures the narrative of the moment that it was being performed amateur by former professional singers who were past their prime.

Also, I absolutely love to see Pierce Brosnan's singing, he is magnificent. I have known Pierce Brosnan for his action movies but this is the first time that I saw him sing let alone act on a musical movie. It is just so refreshing to see your favorite actors and actresses doing something that you have never seen before and Pierce Brosnan and Meryl Streep and Amanda Seyfried did just that.
Seeing Pierce Brosnan singing is just amazing. You wouldn't think that Pierce was known for his action movies
Another song that made me smile is "Does Your Mother Know" performed by Tanya and Pepper at the beach. It was amazing and the song perfectly fits the acting of Tanya towards Pepper.

I must admit that I thought I successfully guessed the ending of the movie but it is not. Also, I think I was not able to guess any of the significant turn of events in the plot. This is maybe one of the movies in which I was not able to successfully guess significant events and I also was not able to successfully guess the ending of the movie. The script did an amazing job of making the viewers believe that what will happen next is based on what we are seeing in the movie but it is not. It was successfully concealed until it was revealed at the end of the movie. I am not going to spoil it here, you must watch the movie in order for you to know.
Aside from Villa Donna (which I like), another location in the movie that I like very much is the location of the church. I never thought that I was going to see a scene in a movie where the majestic location of a church is included for the purpose of shooting a wedding.
The location of the church in the movie is magnificent
Another thing that I like in the movie is the "very Greek" appearance of Amanda Seyfried while preparing for her wedding, I just love it. The movie perfectly portrayed Amanda as a Greek woman. Her appearance is so simple yet so beautifully greek.

All in all the movie is great and also a success. It is also a huge success financially. The movie perfectly used the songs, and the style of how the song was sung and performed was just perfect (the movie perfectly portrayed the "raw" situations in how the song was performed inside the movie. I also like the location of the movie, Greece. Greece is one of the romantic places in the world its beaches are just rawly romantic and casual at the same time. I also like how the Villa Donna was portrayed as it perfectly captured the fact that the villa was maintained by a female. This movie is a must-watch especially if you are a fan of ABBA and their song. I am sure you are going to love it. It has been 15 years since it was released but still very significant today in how powerful the effect of a classic and great song from a great music group from Sweden is.

That is all for now guys, catch you up with the next one. Wishing you all safety, good health, and abundance.
Thank you very much to all of the Hive Ecosystem Curation Teams/Individuals, I am very grateful for the upvotes/curation/support. God bless you all!

So let's move on to the fantastic Greek island of Kalokairi (Greek for summer).
Sophie, who is about to get married, has invited three men to her wedding, one of whom is probably her natural father. Her mother had relationships with all three men at the time Sophie was conceived, which Sophie has discovered from her mother's diary.
Her mother, Donna has a villa in Summer, which she is trying to run as a hotel (unsuccessfully, admittedly), which is where Sophie's wedding is to take place.When she realizes her daughter is hiding something and follows her, she finds herself in front of her 3 former lovers,
Donna now has not one, but three troubles, as each of them claims paternity of Sophie, and Donna herself.
Who will ultimately be the "winner"?
This film belongs to the category of julebox musicals; this means that a majority of the songs are well-known songs or belong to a record, with the plot of the film interwoven with the songs and music.
Even if you're not a fan of musicals, like me, I think you'll enjoy the movie. If you ask me why, let me list the reasons why I believe this:
1 Did I mention that Meryl Streep is in it? Her name alone is a serious role to see in any movie. And not only does she sing, but she dances and does comedy.
And it's not just Meryl Streep in the cast, but Pierce Brosnan, Stellan Skarsgård, and my favorite Colin Firth (Mr. Darcy, ❤️ ❤️ ❤️for ever). How cute to see the usually serious Brosnan dancing (that means trying to) or the shy Firth having a blast.
2 The songs of Abba. I promise you that from the first song you will start humming, then singing loudly, pretending you have a microphone in your hands, and at the end you will do a whole choreography in your living room
3 Do I need to say it out loud? The beautiful Greek landscape. The film is shot almost entirely on the idyllic island of Skopelos with its deep blue waters, picturesque alleys and beautiful beaches. Add the Greek element to the mix and it's a surefire recipe to take you straight to summer.
So, friends of the community, put on your summer clothes, put on your sandals and get a cocktail ready to enjoy this cool summer movie.
›(Esp/Eng) Mamma mia (2008): fresca y atemporal/ Mamma mia: fresh and timeless@andr3apat1no1643d
Mamma mía es una de mis películas favoritas y no es sólo eso, es una de mis películas de confort, de verdad no sé cuántas veces la he visto, todo esto porque pienso que es una película muy completa y aquí te explico el porqué, comencemos:
La película va de que una chica va a casarse y desea conocer a su papá, consigue el diario de su mamá y da con tres posibles hombres que podrian serlo y decide invitarlos a todos la boda. Tiene un elenco increíble de actores tanto estadounidenses como britanicos, está protagonizada por Meryl Streep y Amanda Seydfried, pero también tenemos la aparición de Colin Firth, Pierse Brosnan, Christine Baranski, Julie Walters and Dominic Cooper y eso creo que es uno de sus principales atractivos. Porque conocemos a esta gente de muchos otros proyectos y verla junta en una sola película es simplemente genial.
Aúnado al elenco hay algo de la película que hace que te puedas identificar con muchas situaciones que en ella suceden, no porque todos tengamos tres prospectos de posibles papás jajaja, pero el guión a medida que se va desarrollando refleja varias situaciones de nuestra vida que hacen que nos identifiquemos como el primer amor, el cierre de etapas y el comienzo de cosas nuevas, problemas económicos, problemas de relaciones, reencontrarnos con nuestro pasado, lo bien que lo pasamos con nuestros amigos y esto hace que la película funcione para públicos de todas las edades y condiciones.
Otra cosa que también está muy bien lograda de la película es la escenografía y los vestuarios, realmente te hacen sentir en Grecia en Verano y todo tiene un toque un tanto excéntrico, incluso podría decirse que caricaturesco que hace que la misma se sienta muy fresca y sea muy fácil de ver.
Como cereza del pastel tenemos: LAS CANCIONES DE ABBA
A mi particularmente me encantan, y además si algo saben hacer estos músicos es que sus canciones se sientan atemporales y sean excelentes, entonces toda nuestra historia se desarrolla mientras nuestros protagonistas van cantando y bailando lo que sumado con las cosas que ya he mencionado hacen de "Mamma mía" una excelente película.
Tal vez Mamma mía no sea la mejor de las películas pero tiene componentes como su casting, su soundtrack y su montaje que la hacen excelente, así que sino la has visto, que esperas?. Esto es todo por hoy, gracias por llegar hasta aquí!
Mamma Mia is one of my favorite movies and not only that, it is one of my comfort movies, I really don't know how many times I have seen it, all this because I think it is a very complete movie and here I will explain why, let's start:
The movie is about a girl who is going to get married and wants to meet her dad, she gets her mom's diary and finds three possible men who could be him and decides to invite them all to the wedding. It has an incredible cast of both American and British actors, it stars Meryl Streep and Amanda Seydfried, but we also have the appearance of Colin Firth, Pierse Brosnan, Christine Baranski, Julie Walters and Dominic Cooper and that I think is one of its main attractions. Because we know these people from many other projects and to see them together in one film is just great.
Besides the cast there is something about the movie that makes you can identify with many situations that happen in it, not because we all have three prospective dads hahaha, but the script as it develops reflects several situations of our life that make us identify ourselves as the first love, the closing of stages and the beginning of new things, economic problems, relationship problems, reuniting with our past, the fun we have with our friends and this makes the film works for audiences of all ages and conditions.
Another thing that is also very well done about the film is the scenery and costumes, they really make you feel like you are in Greece in Summer and everything has a somewhat eccentric, you could even say cartoonish touch that makes the film feel very fresh and easy to watch.
As icing on the cake we have: ABBA'S SONGS
I particularly love them, and also if there is something these musicians know how to do is to make their songs feel timeless and excellent, then our whole story unfolds while our protagonists are singing and dancing which added to the things I have already mentioned make "Mamma Mia" an excellent movie.
W Maybe Mamma Mia is not the best movie but it has components such as its casting, its soundtrack and its editing that make it excellent, so if you haven't seen it, what are you waiting for? That's all for today, thanks for making it this far!
