I had seen the play twice, and was excited (and nervous) when I heard a movie was in the works. I just didn't want them messing it up! I've always liked Meryl Streep, and she certainly didn't let me down this time, with her performance in this film. Every song she sings is flawless, and you can really see her emotion when she sings 'The Winner Takes It All'. I've seen the film twice now, and enjoyed it as much the second time as I did the first. I was smiling from the beginning until the end. It is just a feel-good movie, and we need that in these trying times. If you don't like ABBA music, there is an excellent chance this movie won't be your cup of tea. For the millions of people around the world that do like the music, though, they've done a fine job with this film!
