Typically, sequels are less impressive version of the original; however, “Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again” is not like any typical continuation.

In this family-friendly movie, the viewers get a glimpse into Donna’s past. Fans are shown how Donna meets all three of Sophie’s fathers: Harry, Bill, and Sam. From her romantic journeys to discovering her dreams of opening a hotel in Greece, viewers are taken through a remarkable ride through her past, all while telling the story of how both Sophie and her mother become pregnant.

This magical connection between a mother and daughter reveals a heartwarming message about the importance of family bonds through flashbacks and, of course, a lot of music.

The music throughout the sequel is everything and more to those who loved the songs in the first movie.

Mt. Vernon senior, Lexi Price said she, “loved how they incorporated songs from the first movie, and that they still found ways to make them relevant and fun in the second movie. The new songs were also so fun and I can’t get them out of my head.”

This movie is a great film for mothers and daughters of all ages to see together. It can be uplifting for a family to appreciate the strong bond that Sophie and her mother show throughout the film. This sequel is not only for traditional fans who loved the first movie. In fact, many age groups were seen at the theaters.

Even younger teens can enjoy older based movies like this one. Victoria Bulmahn, 11, said, “It had so much energy, and gave me fashion inspiration.”

“Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again” is a must-see movie. It has a lot to offer for music, comedy, and romance lovers. It is perfect for a date night or even just a family outing. Donna and the Dynamos once again do not disappoint their audiences.
