The pleasures of Ol Parker’s film are simple and sensual, its riot of color and sweet, nostalgic songs proving wholly agreeable even without much of a plot to hold it all together. Read full review

In a nice change from Seyfried’s 2008 turn as the ingénue, we want to befriend James’ Donna, not mute her. She’s as gorgeous as she is committed, as funny as she is emotionally true. A big talent. Read full review

Perhaps the most surprising thing about this whole sequined bell-bottomed experience is you might even find yourself getting a little emotional. But not too much, this is vacation after all. Read full review

It boasts such confident performances and choreography that it feels as much like a final draft of the 2008 film as a continuation of it. Read full review

The new sequel/prequel, Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again – which has perhaps the best sequel subtitle of all time – is only half as fun as the first movie, replacing familiar faces with lesser known ones in a story we already know. But thanks to the returning cast and a showstopping Cher performance, there’s enough zany delights to forgive the snoozier bits. Read full review

Something in the sheer relentless silliness and uncompromising ridiculousness of this, combined with a new flavour of self-aware comedy, made me smile in spite of myself Read full review

Call this embarrassing dog’s dinner Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again or just call 911. Either way, it is nearly two hours of relentless, plotless, artless junk. Read full review

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I know this is not a cinema masterpiece but this is really unique and probably one of the few movies when the sequel is better than the original.
The relationship of Sophie and Donna is stronger than ever. The duet between Meryl and Amanda is incredible, very touching and probably you're going to cry a lot in that part.
Cher singing "Fernando" is probably the best musical moment of the movie. I mean, Cher should be in every single movie in this world. All the cast are great but when the Goddess of Pop enter in the movie we just want to see more.
Rosie and Tanya are the funniest characters in the movie, the young and the oldest ones. And Tanya have the greatest lines on Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again.
"Super Trouper" singing by Cher and Meryl Streep with the backing vocals of all the cast. Seeing this two having a song together is like heaven on the earth.
The Screenplay is not gold, but it's funny and entertain the public. This is not a Oscar material film but it's probably the funniest movie of this decade.… Expand

"Here We go Again" caps off the near-perfect "Mamma Mia" duology. This film is tearjerking, fun from start to finish, contains an amazing soundtrack, and has terrific continuity from the first film.

Not sure why I rented this. I suspected watching it would lower my IQ by around twenty points. I'd seen the first "Mamma Mia" movie on a cruise ship in Alaska. All I remembered about it was that Pierce Brosnan could not sing to save his life and that the plot was terminally silly. ThisNot sure why I rented this. I suspected watching it would lower my IQ by around twenty points. I'd seen the first "Mamma Mia" movie on a cruise ship in Alaska. All I remembered about it was that Pierce Brosnan could not sing to save his life and that the plot was terminally silly. This sequel/prequel is carried by Lily James, a British actress who first impressed me as Churchill's young secretary in "Darkest Hour." She lights up every scene in which she acts. She has singing, dancing, and acting chops to burn. Cher, at the ripe old age of 71, appears toward the end of the movie. The plot again is terminally silly, but the movie is saved by the sense that a bunch of actors who genuinely care for each other are having an extraordinary amount of fun together.… Expand

Obviously this film is incredibly cheesy, ridiculous and cringy, however, if you just go to the cinema looking for 90 minutes of entertainment, this film is great. It's just meant as a bit of fun, and if you look at it in that way, it's pretty great.

A silly sequel that was entertaining but not very interesting. I enjoyed the first film better, but some of my friends enjoyed this one more.

My favourite line: there is a raging wildfire in your pants that cannot be contained.

This movie is extremely cheesy, to the point where lumi likes it and she has a tiny pp.
