3 reasons why "Mamma Mia!" is one of the worst movies of 2008:
1) Many good ABBA songs are unmercifully killed by performers who have no business singing ABBA songs.
2) Everyone acts like they are in a stage production, so facial expressions are over the top and lines are read at full volume.
3)The film's comic relief consists of people falling over, or falling down, or being pushed over, or being pushed into water. The inevitable wacky reactions by the other cast members were almost enough to make my regurgitate my popcorn.
I hope I haven't made it sound too impressive.

Adjectives really can't do justice to how special WALL-E is, so I'll just say this: the last time I was moved this much in a movie theater was 1982, when I saw E.T. The Extra-Terrestrial. I have seen many outstanding motion pictures since then, but none have ever captured the pure sweetness, joy and magic of that film. And to be honest with you, I always figured that no movie ever could.
I'm delighted to report that I was wrong.
Seeing WALL-E on opening night, in a packed theater in which every single person in the auditorium applauded at the end for close to 5 minutes...well, let's just say I have a little more faith in humanity than I did before.
(I would also like to add that this is a PERFECT date movie...)
