ROCKETMAN - Elton John Biopic.
Did not realize it’s a musical. I hate musicals with a passion! But, I persevered through the rather dull 1st hour or so & glad I did. Taron Egerton really v. good as Elton & kudos to him for doing his own singing. Jamie Bell excellent as he always is as Bernie Taupin. Why they had an American playing Elton’s mother is beyond me & she was just awful. The guy who played his father played him so woodenly & he was just awful too.
Wonder how many living artists executive-produce their own life in a movie as Elton has done here? Would be interesting to know.
