It's hard to tell whether Rocketman and Bohemian Rhapsody are better or worse. After some searching, I was confused and found that the director of the former was the producer of the latter, so they were so similar that Rocketman brought The vibration will be profoundly affected by the latter. Rocketman's character re-creation fully respects the real historical data. Compared with Rhapsody, it is more qualified to be called a biographical film. It is very naked and frank to talk about one of the most sensitive topics in today's society: LGBT, no continuation. Rhapsody is generally conservative and obscure, and instead chooses to use a large-scale and large-scale highlight to face the protagonist's love journey. Compared with Rhapsody's flat, straightforward narrative and more realistic style, Rocketman uses positive narrative flashbacks on a large scale to frequently intersperse and switch, and uses virtual writing techniques to render the subjective inner world of the characters. British national treasure singer Elton John is gorgeous, changeable and bold. The avant-garde stage style is very emotionally explosive and visually impactful in the film and television screen design combining virtual and real. However, I think the maturity level of Rocketman may be less than that of Rhapsody. First of all, the display of the protagonist's growth process is too fast and intense, and does not give the audience's brain a blank area for relaxation and thinking, almost every five minutes. In a climax, the dialogue between the characters is so fast that it is almost impossible to leave a memory. On the other hand, the high and low coordination in Rhapsody makes the emotional narrative in Rocketman seem pale and powerless, as if any actor who has passed the test can become an actor. Taron Egerton's performance didn't make him the one-of-a-kind lead cast for the role of Ayton in Rocketman, but Rami Malek, who played legendary lead singer Freddy in Bohemian Rhapsody, could almost Make me believe that he is Freddie himself, and no other actor can match it. The Rockets obviously did not grasp these points accurately, and even Richard Madden, who played the agent, can overshadow him. The most taboo in biographical films is that the actors are suppressed by the charm and influence of the characters themselves, which will lead to unilateral communication between the characters and the actors. Furthermore, Rocketman rarely brings in historical materials, which makes people ignore its essential characteristics as a biographical film. The original style of combining the virtual and the real has already interfered with the audience's understanding. If there are no more historical materials as support, it will It makes the whole film seem to have lost the typical characteristics of a biopic, and in the end, the elements of the musical theme will cover up the inner struggle of the characters it hopes to express. As a biographical film, Rocketman is excellent, but as a main theme movie, Rocketman's extremely obvious sense of tearing will make it difficult for viewers to empathize.
