Absolutely a must see

Rating: 9/10 (12 June 2019)

In a world of bio pics, comic books, and book adaptations i was sure this was going to have nothing original in it. Depending on your background knowledge of Elton John you may agree. However, the acting in this movie and the genuine emotion that is shown makes this movie an absolute treasure. After Bohemian Rhapsody, if this movie doesnt win awards hand over fist its a crime because Rocketman is better in every way! The only reason this is not a 10 is there is a slight musical element. (That is a few scenes where the actors seem to be directed by the music) which kind of broke the flow for me personally. It would have been fine had they used these in place of montages, but there is one of those as well. I personally think that sort of thing os best utalized in musical theater. This is the only, and small, complaint i had in the entire movie!
