Fly me to the moon ..

Rating: 8/10 (5 June 2019)

This is far more than a tears, tantrums and tiaras tale, it's a beautifully sincere and boisterous account of the extravagance, excesses and exuberance of the life of a once very shy Reg Dwight, who became Elton John.
Taron Egerton nails it completely in the lead conveying his egocentricities, yet vulnerablities, and flamboyant style while Jamie Bell (who is undoubtedly coming of age in his recent roles) is excellent as the words behind the songs, and 'brother' Bernie Taupin.
And Bryce Dallas Howard recognisable as cold hearted mum Sheila.
Take a trip to the stars with Rocketman and you'll come put of the cinema smiling and humming one of those greatest hits.
Can't wait for the stage musical!
