Rocketman

Any Elton John fans around here? Just got back from seeing Rocketman, and it's a solid watch. It's a little less plot-driven than Bohemian Rhapsody (which basically made a bunch of shit up to make the story compelling), but it's a nice excuse to learn a bit about Elton's life and enjoy the music. Taron Egerton actually does a really nice job from end to end. (He sings all of the songs and does them justice.)

Anyway, it's worth the ticket if you're a fan. Probably not if you aren't.

Does it focus on the music or do they play up his proclivity to take it up the yellow brick road?

His sexuality is a part of the story, but it's much more about his struggles to find love in general rather than the sexual aspect of it. It's framed as Elton looking back on his life while in rehab, so lots of focus on his struggles with his family, friends, and fame that led to a lot of alcohol and drug abuse.

It's presented in kind of a surreal style, so it's a combination of concert reenactments and "musical" style people randomly breaking into his songs. The music is very, very present throughout.

That sounds way better than what I was expecting.

Thanks. Glad to hear his music is the focus. Sounds like a good HBO watch.

There is a sex scene, so if you're uncomfortable with dudes making out, it might bother you. There's no nudity, though, and it pans away as it's getting to the point that you really don't want to see (as a straight dude).

At this point if your buttcheeks clinch up seeing a couple of dudes kissing in a movie, thats on them not the filmmakers. Freddie Mercury and Elton John were gay. The vast majority of society during their prime was not okay with people being gay. Entertainers were tolerated but off the stage, they were treated harshly for just being born that way.

To be fair, calling it "kissing" is a bit of an understatement. I agree with you in principle, but I was definitely glad it cut away when it did.

Did you see where Russia had to take it a step further and edit out a few minutes of the movie to get rid of anything that hinted at teh butssexxors?
