I'm usually a bit leery of sequels because they rarely live up to the original. Since I'm a big fan of Abba music, I figured I couldn't go wrong with Mama Mia! Here We Go Again. Although there are many inconsistencies from the original story-line, the sequel released last month is a fun way to spend a couple of hours. My friend and I both agreed we would love to see it again!
Good morning again Carol. I just saw the first film on a plane. Glad to know the sequel is worth a watch too.

Thank you for your opinion on Mama Mia Here We Go Again. I might actually go see it this afternoon. The Paladio Theaters in nearby Folsom are running it at a mere $5.00 for Seniors on Tuesdays.

Hi Carol- I love musicals and love the cast members in Abba but first, I've never been an Abba fan (their music) and was a bit disappointed in the original movie.Might have been me though. It would be fun to see it just to see Cher.

I heard it was supposed to be better than the first one. I love escapist movies in these times. Had to watch The Princess Bride last night to chill out.

We saw the it live and it was fun a bit long but fun. I didn't know they did a remake.

Hi Myrl Jeffcoat ,
I will be interested to know if you enjoyed it. I hope so!
Hi Kathy Streib ,
Cher has a very small role toward the end but she was good, of course. She is amazing.
Hi Joe Pryor
This would qualify as an "escapist" movie, I suppose. Quite enjoyable if you don't get caught up in the inconsistencies from the first movie.
Hi Anna Banana Kruchten CRB, CRS 602-380-4886 ,
Live would definitely be fun. This was a sequel, not a remake. The mother (Meryl Streep) has died and the daughter is reopening the hotel.
Carol, I saw the movie today with my broker and some other agents...all women. We all loved the movie. But, the first one is my favorite.
My friend and I saw the first one, the second one last week and the play on Broadway several years ago. I love the music and have the CD. I even sing along (not at a public theater though). Do you?
There is nothing like a a good musical to entertain and make me feel good Carol 😀!!!

Hi Rebecca Gaujot, Realtor® ,
Glad to hear you enjoyed the movie. I think I enjoyed the first one more too. The sequel was a little "slow" in places but still fun.
Hi Debbie Reynolds ,
I wish I had some singing talent. I do some singing when I am solo. But I have mercy on my friends and do not sing in public. I maintain there is not enough alcohol in the world to get me to sing in public.
Agreed, Paul S. Henderson, REALTOR®,CRS, . A good musical is a fun way to spend a couple hours, isn't it?

LOVE IT
Took a couple of hours off last week and went with a best friend. We both enjoyed it. Have seen it live in New York and also the first movie.
This is on my list to see. At first blush I thought how gauche. How silly. How, wait a minute, Cher is in THAT!
