"Rocketman" cleverly combines the gorgeous singing and dancing with the film narrative, using extremely gorgeous words, very "Elton John", tells the biggest ups and downs of Elton John's acting career. The story of the film runs through the beginning and the end of the search for love and learning. The colorful and exaggerated costumes, familiar music, and compact story process firmly capture the audience's love for movies and music. The film beautifully reproduces Elton John's exaggerated stage performance and his unimaginable and crazy musical talent. Screenwriter Lee Hale cleverly incorporated Elton John’s popular rock songs into the film’s narrative, recreating classic scenes from Elton John’s career as a singer, including performances in well-known music bars in Los Angeles and the peak of acting The music and film narrative complement each other. Talen Edgerton’s performance is sincere and moving, not just imitating Elton John, but a deduction of empathy that "people are not sages, who can have no fault".

I went to Newtown, the hippie center, to watch this movie, and it was a pleasant surprise. It is a very musical biopic. Although it is very convenient to use songs to connect the experience and use the experience to sort out the flow of the masterpiece, this film is handled very reasonably, so it does not feel cheap. After reading it, I wondered if it was a group of rock stars who didn't have one who was not on the verge of collapse. It's directed by Dexter Fletcher, who produced last year's Queen's Bohemian Rhapsody, and the same character, John Reid, who is portrayed very differently, but I actually prefer this one. The last trailer before today's movie happens to be Elton John advertising the Bille Elliot musical in Sydney, and Jamie Bell in the movie looks more and more like Christian Bale.
