Muriel, boulotte de vingt-trois ans, maladroite et ridicule, tête de Turc de ses copines, étouffée par sa famille, attend le prince charmant en écoutant ABBA et en feuilletant des catalogues de robes de mariée dans une ennuyeuse petite station balnéaire. Le prince charmant se faisant attendre, elle décide de partir à sa recherche à Sydney. (texte officiel du distributeur)

Comedically tuned drama about the adolescence and maturation of a rural girl who was seeking happiness in the city. A very positive-sounding film that reminds me of Mamma Mia! and one that I still enjoy returning to. Although ABBA's music appears in a number of films, in this case, the combination of this easygoing music and the film's story is probably the most successful. Overall impression: 90%. It was in this film that I discovered the excellent actress Toni Collette, who soon broke into Hollywood thanks to it.

Such a very pleasant Australian romantic comedy that has proper thorns. It's like you want to laugh the whole time, but the movie gives you plenty of reasons to cry instead. Beautifully balanced drama with comedy, which actually isn't romantic at all, at least not in the American sense of the word. That's exactly what makes the film beautifully unique. Of course, thanks to Toni Collette. And with ABBA!
