User Reviews

There's so much going on in this movie and all of it is amazing. Rhonda + Muriel = friend goals forever.

This is the movie all ABBA fans should watch. Definitely enjoyed this movie way more than Mamma Mia.

Moving and funny. A fabulous early performance by Toni Collette

Absolutely hilarious I loved this movie so much. Perfect for a girly night in!

More heartfelt than funny. A solid movie, but not the comedy I expected going in.

This is really fun and Toni Collette is perfect

A campy comedy and a raw drama mixed into the ultimate coming-of-age for weirdos struggling to find work, love and happiness in our 20s

A sweet coming-of-age comedy that everyone should watch

I like it, its warm and cute and it gave us my favorite actress

When you think it's going to be another generic RomCom, but Paul Hogan brings us another Aussie movie saturated with queer undertones.
