ABBA's classic old songs + all-star cast + the beauty of the Greek island are the three recognized highlights of the film.
The former is of course the origin of everything, from West End theatres in London to Broadway in New York, the audience mostly goes to the jukebox-style super MTV; and ABBA's two male members Benny Andersson and Björn Ulvaeus (2B?) also spared no effort to help. He has covered stage plays and movies (both also have a shot each).
Aunt Mei's performance has raised the film to a new level. People who are in their 60s can still jump, jump, go crazy and make trouble. What's even more rare is that she, who was nominated for the Tony Award in her early years, performed all the songs in the film herself (as did others), and the song "The Winner Takes it All" is said to have passed the recording once and it was amazing. Mr. Darcy and 007 also performed well. Only the old Swedish man, Stellan Skarsgård, didn't seem to let go. Could it be that ABBA opened the back door during the casting?
Since female director Phyllida Lloyd directed both the Broadway version and the film version, the two are very similar from the plot to the details. But the movie set is much more flexible than the stage, so we saw the charming scenery of the blue sky and blue sea, and the carnival spewing from the Aphrodite fountain.
