This week brings “Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again” which I wish didn’t go at all, and another Bay Area film, “Blindspotting.”
There is no reason whatsoever to make “Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again” – yet somehow they convinced Amanda Seyfried, Dominic Cooper, Pierce Brosnan, Stellan Skarsgard, Christine Baranski, Colin Firth, Julie Walters, and Meryl Streep ALL to come back… AND added Andy Garcia, Lily James, and freaking Cher. Yet it was still awful.
Meanwhile the Bay Area continues to rep at the box office, this time with Daveed Diggs and Rafael Casal’s “Blindspotting” which is probably amongst the most real portrayals of current Oakland I’ve ever seen.
