If you thought they were going to stop just because the first Mamma Mia! used up all the good ABBA songs, think again.

Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again is the most opposite of reality a movie can get. It is a universe of music and light and love, completely devoid of cynicism, hate, and ugliness. If I did not feel a moral responsibility to stay engaged in actual life, I would watch Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again every single day.

Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again is a musical filled with ABBA songs. It stars some of the most likable white people out there, including Amanda Seyfried, Christine Baranski, Colin Firth, and Cher. Lily James plays a young Meryl Streep, living her best late-1970s life and hooking up with tons of hot dudes. In this perfect universe, she is not ostracized for not knowing who the father of her daughter is. (The daughter will just have three dads! Of course! Why not?! Let’s dance about it!)
