Rocketman

CriticsCritics: 79
AudienceAudience: 7.5

A gifted pianist rises from a difficult childhood to international stardom, forming a powerful songwriting partnership along the way. As fame, romance, and personal struggles reshape his life, he must confront the costs of success and find a way forward.

My take

You’ll likely enjoy this colorful, emotionally candid musical if you like Elton John’s songs, bold fantasy, and intimate struggles; Not for you if you want a strictly factual, conventional biography like Ray.
