Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaEasyjet Airlines did not pay a penny towards the production costs despite featuring prominently in one song and dance scene. They did however loan the production team one of their Airbus aircraft (that was in the hangar having an overhaul) free of charge for 48 hours for filming on condition that the livery was kept intact and not covered up or changed.
- GoofsThe beginning of the film takes place in 1993, when the schoolgirls are age 15/16 (and the same year Take That had their first number 1 UK single. The film was released in 2023. However the character of Rachel (Aisling Bea) refers to these events as being "25 years ago". So either the film is set in 2018 or the scriptwriters have lost five years somewhere in the mix.
Note: The original stage musical was written in 2017 so they are presumably using the same script (which would make the timeline correct).

Featured review
It had its moments and the highlight was probably I WANT YOU BACK it was the moment when the song and story came together .
There have been some amazing musicals
There have been some amazing jukebox movies
The highlight and the benchmark is undoubtedly MAMMA MIA anything else that doesn't come close in its story and adaptation is a let down
If you want a bio pic with music you cannot beat BOHEMIAN RHAPSODY and Rocket man failed in its attempt to merge the two together I wonder if there will be a film if 'we will rock you' ?
Geoff was a highlight he brought comedy to the script
Sadly this failed to take off on any level it's not a film you think I want to see that again and tell everyone to see if - it just failed to do what musicals do - it failed yo uplift - the ingredients were there they just weren't applied in the right quantities
Towards the final 10 minutes it upped a notch or or two but overall it just wasn't good enough
Disappointing
Pad. A 5/10.
