One of the sequels we’ve been waiting, ‘Mamma Mia: Here We Go Again’ (2018) brings the fun, cheesy, musical theme like the first film. They brought back some of the old cast and we see some new cast who did a wonderful job in this film. The casting of the younger version characters really fit well to the original characters.

The editing was really smart in this film during some of the musical numbers and the parallel from present Sophie to the young Donna. The placing of parallel scene makes you think one thing, but then thrown off when another piece revealed. Peter Lambert has worked on different genre films compared to ‘Mamma Mia: Here We Go Again’ (2018), a musical.

Robert D. Yeoman has also worked on various films with different genres such as ‘The Grand Budapest Hotel’ (2014) and ‘Spy’ (2015). The cinematography was beautiful throughout the film, but there is one part that bothered me. It was the lighting on Young Donna while she and young Sam were on a boat. They were having a serious moment and the sun’s glare would cover Young Donna’s face. I know it’s difficult to control lighting while on the ocean.

There are some facts from ‘Mamma Mia!’ (2008) that don’t really align in the second film, but ‘Mamma Mia: Here We Go Again’ (2018) was still a fun, amazing movie to enjoy!

Trivia! There is a scene in the film where it takes place in Japan. You can see a huge poster of ‘Boruto’ and a medium poster of ‘Jojo’s Bizarre’ which was a fun pop culture to see if you know about anime~
