Review of Rocketman (2019) by Avr50 — 04 Jun 2019
It would not be fair to compare this movie with Bohemian Rhapsody, because they´re not the same movie. Bohemian Rhapsody is a straight up biopic, while Rocketman is a musical fantasy, but there´s something I could say about this two movies, I did not like Bohemian Rhapsody, just a fact.
Rocketman uses Elton John songs to tell his story, and every song is earned and very well use. Taron Egerton is the star of the film, his performance is worthy of an Oscar, I mean, he sings, dances and acts.
But his performance was not the only good one, everyone is absolutely great, there´s no problems with any of them. The musical scenes are phenomenal (specially "Saturday´s Night Alright For Fighting", you will wanna dance in this one; also call out to the "Rocketman" sequence) The only thing that bothered me was the passing in some scenes but it´s something minor.
In the end, "Rocketman" is a glance at the life of an icon, in his point of view and using his personal style, the result is extraordinary. Please, go watch this movie, is an amazing experience that I can´t wait to watch again.
