A well done, well acted, biopic of a life void of self love.

Rating: 8/10 (19 June 2019)

First thing you should know this is a bit of a musical in the sense it does break into sing and dance using Elton Johns song in real life situations and feelings. If you hate musicals it might not be for you. That aside it was beautifully done. The acting was spot on, Egerton did a fantastic job as Elton John and Jamie Bell was perfection as Bernie. Some may have known more about Eltons past and his demons than others, as for me I was heartbroken by his early story and happy to know he found joy and self love later in life. I had no idea he faced so many demons and had so little to no self love. It's s very real and raw story intertwined with the music from Elton John we all love.
