Sex, drugs and musical biopics.

Rating: 9/10 (1 June 2019)

The movie is framed as a drug addled introspective though Elton's life told from a group therapy rehab session which becomes the climax of the film. The setting allows for an almost musical theatre of the absurd. The whole cast breaking out into a medley of his greatest hits throughout the film, in camp montages creating a tone that perfectly fit the subject.
