Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again

— This is just a pleasant diversion where lots of catchy songs propel the next “Mama Mia” generation toward a happy ending. It’s about what you’d expect and you do end up lulled by it’s charm. After more than an hour of musical numbers, Cher finally shows up, looking a little stiff on platform shoes but it only takes a few notes to realize she can sing circles around everyone else in the movie. Even at 72, she can’t help but be a star.
