SYNOPSIS
A follow-up to the 2008 film Mamma Mia!, which is based on the musical of the same name with music by ABBA
Both a prequel and a sequel, the plot is set 5 years after the events of the first film but also features flashbacks to 1979 to tell the story of how Donna came to be on the island of Kalokairi and has to figure out who fathered her daughter, Sophie.
REVIEW SUMMARY
"Bubbly, silly and undeniably entertaining – Mamma Mia 2 is not perfect by any means, but it will have you tapping your toes more than rolling your eyes. If you like musicals, you’re going to really like this one. If you don’t, well, this will not change your mind one iota (LaLa Land this is not). Like the filmmakers themselves, you need to truly embrace the camp and have fun with it all. However, I do think they could have used a bit more Cher!"
