Could the newly dubbed young British heartthrob Dominic Cooper and Amanda Seyfried bring just enough young sex appeal to this weekend's other hit Mama Mia? The answer is yes, they looked fabulous in their roles and looked good together on screen. The film did well as an option this weekend to the record setting "Dark Knight."

Here's the short version of the synopsis of the hit movie. Sophie (the very sweet and talented Amanda Seyfried), is about to get married to Sky (Dominic Cooper, whose main job when he's on screen is to be awfully cute). She invites three of her mother's former lovers to the wedding and she has an ulterior motive.'

The tree guys are the suave architect Sam (Pierce Brosnan), button-down banker Harry (Colin Firth) and rugged adventurer Bill (Stellan Skarsgard) to the wedding, in hopes of figuring out which one is her father. Christine Baranski and Julie Walters add great comic touches as Streep's ex-bandmates. Lots of hilarity, singing and dancing ensues.

Is it worth the ten bucks? It wasn't awful, but some of the reviews I read made me believe this movie was set to spectacular. I won't go that far, but it was indeed worth watching and some of the performances are charming and fun and this film is worth seeing.
