Rocketman is now on Netflix Canada, so we finally got around to watching it the other night. I was a little surprised when we watched it as it wasn't what I was expecting. It reminded me of going to live theatre and watching a musical, more so than watching an actual movie.
You had to feel sorry for Elton, as at the end of the day all he wanted was to be loved. I had no love for his mother, but you could see how close he was to his Nan. It features his life story up until just before he met his husband, David Furnish, which I guess makes sense. As things have settled down a lot in Elton's life since he met him.
If I had to compare the movie with Bohemian Rhapsody, I preferred Bohemian Rhapsody.
Have you seen either of the movies, and if so which one did you prefer?
