SHOWTIME at 4:50pm.

Swedish songsters ABBA inspire a musical feast that's both sweet and surprisingly spicy. Sophie Sheridan is about to be married to her true love, Sky, but has no father to give her away. What's a bride to do but go poking through Mom's past for answers? In the pages of an old diary she finds a shocking secret: any of three men could be her father. She sends a letter to each one, hoping to discover who has the right to escort her down the aisle... and throwing a big fat Greek monkey wrench into Mom's life.



Three Good Reasons to see Mamma Mia!

  • The legendary, luminous Meryl Streep scores points for 50+ women everywhere by stealing the show from her equally gorgeous onscreen daughter (Amanda Seyfried of Mean Girls).
  • Fans of the stage show may have thought there was no way to improve on it, but the Greek scenery (including Pelion and Skopelos) provides a breathtaking backdrop for the tale.
  • This is the type of musical where you go into the theater humming the songs. So grab your friends and go prove to the world that disco never died.The region of Mt. Pelion, where parts of this movie were filmed, has also been graced by another legendary wedding. Tradition names it as the site of the marriage of Thetis and Peleus, parents of the mythical hero Achilles.



We'll grab a bite to eat afterwards at Left Bank (menu).

    Hope I got this info right and not confusing anyone but I went to buy a ticket online and found that I do not see a 4:25 showing at Century 16 Downtown Pleasant Hill. did you mean the 4:50 show? I do see a 4:25 showing at CinéArts @ Pleasant Hill. Is it just me?

Who attended?

    •  Meryl Streep did an excellent job in this and has a nice voice. It was a fun, and enjoyable film. I'd definitely recommend it for anyone to see if you like musicals or Meryl Streep. Good Summer flick. I felt like singing and dancing "Dancing Queen" afterwards lol ;-) 
    •  LOVED THIS MOVIE! We were dancing in our hearts the rest of the evening! 
    •  really fun movie, I did sing along and laugh and cry. 
    • Ron (+1 guest)
       My wife loved it. For me, I must admit it was silly but entertaining- we had fun.
