A fresh take on the music biopic genre is always welcome, and turning the proceedings into a musical was a swing for the fences that paid off. Egerton brings plenty of soul. Some things fell into the big music biopic cliche bin, and other things felt manufactured, but all in all this is a winner that raised goosebumps on a few occasions.

As a consummate spectacle simply bravo to Rocketman. No amount of superlatives can express the undeniable beauty portrayed in its two-hour run time, the artistic expression in both visuals and the perfectly timed score make Rocketman ludicrously emotional. Of course on top of all that- this is Elton John we're talking about, the score cannot fail to be incredible. The fantasy elements were a element of confusion, but any excuse to embellish the visuals further can never be a terrible inclusion

Apart from some jarring musical numbers, especially in the early parts of the film, Rocketman is held together well thanks to a stunning performance from Egerton

It would undoubtedly be possible to make a good film about Elton John, but the filmmakers apparently preferred to forgo the effort required to do so. Characterisation is cartoonish at best, and the audience are treated as dunces throughout. Although I've admittedly only seen two films written by Lee Hall, all signs point to the likelihood that he is a complete hack. Odd watching this directly after PAIN AND GLORY (both were shown at Cannes in 2019): superficial similarities and deep contrasts.

A fun, colourful jaunt through Elton's early years and breakthrough into stardom. You expect dramatisations in these things but Rocketman fully goes for entertainment over education, a movie more for its musical set pieces and visual delights than a dedicated biopic. Which is fine, but makes for a slightly hollow film where you never really learn anything about the man himself. A perfectly enjoyable experience for its duration, it's just not something I see myself watching again in a hurry.

a superior cinematic entry in the Glam Rock Cinematic Universe, establishing John Reid as a fearsome villain for our heroes to overcome in the inevitable team-up. Egerton is the stand-out, bringing an enthusiasm and openness to his performance which Malek never quite could in the first installment. the R rating helps, though the homosexuality is still too PG-13. it's obvious Elton is a bottom, but should that be left to subtext?

If you don't like musicals, Bohemian Rhapsody will probably be better for you. It does feel a lot like other biopics before it, but Taron Egerton is fantastic as Elton John which really carried it for me. It's really impressive that Egerton did all of the singing, though I probably gave it a bit of better score because I like the music so much.

How could you expect me to enjoy an Elton John doc with kids and flash mobs singing the songs and doing them half-way through? Shameful.

Pretty much everything exactly as I expected it to be, with a few additional disappointments and annoyances. There's simply not much substance here, just the typical rock star cliche biopic bullshit, which all feels very amateurish. It's not terrible, the fantasy adds some depth, but overall it's just kinda blah. The poor cast doesn't help. This is no fault of John. His autobiography is quite the page turner, full of interesting anecdotes. He has material, it's just not captured very well here.

Taron Egerton carries this film was a great lead performance. There are a lot of fun musical sequences in this story. Overall I would recommend this film.
