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.

Some characters and scenes are a little on the nose, but Rocketman manages to sidestep many of the usual biopic trappings by allowing itself to turn into a full-on musical.

Elton John gibi kostümlerine kadar renkli sıradışı ve gerçek anlamda efsane bir karakteri aktarmak için müzikal bir anlatım tercihi çok isabetli. Birbirinden hareketli zamanının (aslında zamansız/her zamanın) hitleri, muazzam bir görsel destek eşliğinde keyifli bir izlence sunarken film kelimenin tam anlamı ile su gibi akıyor.

It has its qualities in energetic, often imaginatively-filmed musical sequences and Taron Egerton’s excellent performance. But man, these musical biopics are always so, so, so paint by numbers. Always with childhood, daddy issues, initial discovery, being backup/opening act to someone, rise to fame, more daddy issues, spiral into drugs/alcohol, fight with bandmates, personal realization, recovery/reunion with bandmates, happy ending. Every. Single. Time. There’s gotta be a fresh approach.

A colorfully, messy, authentic creative ride! I felt like the story was missing some depth, but I feel like this type of movie musical (like Across the Universe) lends itself better to kaleidoscopic breadth over intense, searing depth.

Being in the shadows of Bohemian Rhapsody didn't do this film any justice. The story feels similar (yet different), though this one does take a different tack by making it more of a musical and making use of flashbacks to enhance the story. Taron Egerton is amazing in this role and is worth watching on his own. I also wasn't as familiar with Elton John's music, which may have soared my enjoyment a little. At the end of the day, it's not as crowd-pleasing but it is still a decent watch.
