Rocketman

Going through by golden globe nominee’s in the category of best picture musical or comedy I came across “Rocketman” directed by Dexter Fletcher who had partially helm the ship for” Bohemian Rhapsody” in the later stages,so in a way it wasn’t that hard to find the common chord between both .Similar pattern of storyline talking about the relationships,struggles, addiction, sexual orientation and so on and so…..

But it was treat to watch a musical biopic about Sir Elton and a wonderful way to Grace the Sunday morning.Taron egerton was delight to watch as Sir Elton.His minute detailing about the character was exquisite, starting from his body language to singing….utter magnificent to say the least..We were intoduced to group of good actor’s as his disciples, family, friend’s and acquaintances who did their job fabulously especially Richard Madden as John Reid played the role of shrewd love interest of the protagonist did complete justice to it, Bryce Dallas Howard as Elton’s megalomaniac mother was perfect on the limited time she was given on the screen but Jamie bell as Bernie was just astounding, chemistry he shared with Tom was creating magic everytime they appeared on screen which was something I loved the most.

The pacing of the movie was a bit slow due to certain scenes which were stretched out but in a way it doesn’t curtail the natural progression of the movie.Costume and production value did have all the required desirable elements, qualities, or characteristics that was needed. Editing was quite in-sync with the storytelling.Music was great that suited the situation with impeccable choreography.

All in all it was a valiant effort which was put across to us by Dexter Fletcher which I as an audience admired an adored.
