ROCKET MAN:
biopic of Elton John's life told as he recounts his life as part of his 'getting clean' rehab stint...
its sad in parts, funny in others...
sort of wishy-washy in the dreamy musical parts...
its full of drugs.booze and sex (non explicit)…
deals with his longstanding professional relationship with Bernie Taupin and his personal relationships...
its not all in chronological order as it goes through his marriage/divorce then trips back to "too low for zero" album etc...
thoroughly entertaining though...
people who say "oh its not as good as the Freddie Mercury movie" etc, I have an answer for that, its not the same thing, its told from a different perspective and its not a rock and roll movie, its more in line with musicals...
7.5/10
