Review Film Rocketman

"I'm still standing after all this time. Picking up the pieces of my life without you on my mind"

Yes, it's Elton John's sing - I'm Still Standing. The song was released in 1983 and certified gold, both in England and US charts. But, are we understood enough about the life of the singer itself?

Homosexual, drug addict and alcoholic, Elton John's real name is Reggie Dwight. Had a complicated life with his own family, didn't stop Elton to keep creating and improving his talent. He became famous after a night in Troubadour, one of the most known pub in Los Angeles, USA.

Like the other stories of many artists, Elton's had some troubles when he was a star. A glamorous life took him into his own miserable life, an empty life. The singer of 'Saturday Night Alright for Fight', had some serious problem about his addiction on drugs and alcohol. Until then, he's got his rehabilitation and curing himself from addicted to drugs and alcohol.

Rocketman, a movie whose tells us about the life of the rock and roll superstar, Elton John. Released in May 2019,  this movie was directed by Dexter Fletcher and grossing over 195 millions USD worldwide.

The movie itself was taking us to another level of biographical and musical movie. A magnificent masterpiece by Mr. Fletcher gave us some joy and misery about Elton John's life. The story's plot never be boring to watch because every scene of the movie, even the musical, is a representative forms from Elton's real life story without over protecting the character.

Mr. Taron Egerton who play Elton John is the most successful aspect in this movie, Rocketman. He totally deserves some award for his work. Remarkable! It because Mr. Egerton didn't play Elton John like Elton John, but he's built his own persona by living his own perspective about Elton John.

Overall, i think Rocketman is a must watch movie, 9/10.
