Saw "Mamma Mia, Here we go again". Loved it.

If you saw the first "Mama Mia" and enjoyed it, I recommend seeing the sequel. It was upbeat, funny, music and dancing was great. Probably won't win any Oscars, but just an upbeat fun 2 hours. Many in theather clapped when it ended. Make sure you wait for the credits to run.

It got a little slow there in the middle but I enjoyed it nonetheless.

But I was surprised to see the Preacher guy from the AMC show as the husband. I never connected him from the first movie.

Boring
Bad new songs.
Only good parts were last 15 minutes of cameos by Streep and Cher.
I almost walked out. Save your money. Read the New York Times review for a good summary.

I'm ready to go see it again. It was a great escape from the wacky world of Trump for 2 hours. Didn't think about him once. It was like I was on vacation.

Not bothering with the movie. But I'm horribly critical of most movies anyway, one of old grouches who approves of less than ~5% of movies made. I expect a lot.
