'Mamma Mia!' triumphs at Movie Awards

Abba musical Mamma Mia! has picked up two prizes at this year's National Movie Awards.

The West End adaptation scooped the best musical gong, while its star Meryl Streep won the best actress award.

The Dark Knight held off competition from Iron Man, Hancock and The Incredible Hulk to take home the top prize in the new superhero category, while Indiana Jones And The Kingdom Of The Crystal Skull won in the action/adventure section.

US comedy Juno secured the comedy award, with Pixar's WALL-E named best family film.

Johnny Depp triumphed in the best actor category, which included nominations for Pierce Brosnan (Mamma Mia!), Christian Bale (The Dark Knight) and Harrison Ford (Indiana Jones).

Now in its second year, the National Movie Awards offers the public the chance to vote for their favourite blockbuster films and stars from the past 12 months.

The ceremony, which took place at London's Royal Festival Hall, will air at 8pm tonight on ITV1.
