The scenes shot for the musical number "I Wonder (Departure)" sung by Young Donna (Lily James) before leaving for her Greek adventure were cut from the final movie, likely due to time constraints or pacing. The song is still featured on the soundtrack album, and is included as a bonus in the home video release. See more »

So, ten years after "Mamma Mia!", here we go again!
I must say that I recognize that the first movie is not a great movie but I really like it. This time, after watching the trailers, my expectations were really high. I watched the movie yesterday and now I can say that I loved it. And it is way better than the first one.
The movie shows a young Donna, played by the amazing Lily James - that looks great in this movie and, oh!, she is a great singer! It is really funny to watch how she met the "three fathers", Sam, Bill and Harry - and also must say that Jeremy Irvine, Josh Dylan and Hugh Skinner are great too.
At the same time, since all the scenes from the young Donna are only flashbacks, we see how is Sophie's life, after a tragedy in the family. Yes, we have another party here, so the plot is basically the same as the first movie. But this movie knew exactly what people like in "Mamma Mia!", so everything here looks fine and it's really enjoyable.
This time everyone can sing properly, even Pierce Brosnan. And the choreographys are beautiful, especially the one for the song "Dancing Queen".
Just to finish, I need to say that the end of the movie is a beautiful surprise. Everyone that liked "Mamma Mia!" will like this movie. And I think those who didn't like the first movie should give a chance to this one.
