He was so cute and loveable in that one, just like in Bridget Jones diary and in Pride and Prejudice.

I have long loved him in his Jane Austenesque roles and it is always strange to see him out of that - the movie Love Actually was another example.<BR/><BR/>I haven't seen Mama Mia yet, but can only imagine that on that front I will feel the same way!

But yeah, the twist at the end and the jump suits were a little much. <BR/><BR/>And you are right, Pierce Brosnan cannot sing. Poor guy...he really looked/sounded like he was struggling. Then come to find out on an interview that he never wanted to do the part and said he couldn't sing, but was assured by the producers/casting people to just ham it up and it would be funny. When I saw it, the audience was cracking up. Enjoyment at his expense...but that's okay. I'm sure he got paid some big bucks. :) <BR/><BR/>I hope the 6 hours of P&P helps a little...
