Super fun and super psychedelic

Rating: 8/10 (20 May 2019)

Walking in, I wasn't expecting much, especially because Bohemian Rhapsody didn't really do it for me. However, I gotta say I adored this. It's got a very strange sense of humor, and I was surprised that it doesn't detract from the overall serious nature of Elton's drug use, alcoholism, and sex addiction. The best way to describe the movie is that if one were to take a fairly standard musical biopic structure and utilized a really awesome musical presentation, this is the result. I feel like a lot of people who did not like the sterile nature of Bohemian Rhapsody will probably really love this movie.
