Incredible biopic

Rating: 9/10 (28 May 2019)

Rocketman is an incredible musical biopic that shows both the highs and lows of Elton John's early life and career. Taron Egerton gives an incredible performance as Elton John and sings his songs amazingly. The supporting performances from Jamie Bell, Bryce Dallas Howard and Richard Madden are all great. However, the performances from the child actors playing young Elton John aren't as convincing. Also, Dexter Fletcher's direction is great and the music/dance sequences work really well.
