If it wasn't for the Oscars, I probably wouldn't have seen this movie, it's not my type of movie after all, but luckily I didn't miss it. Yesterday is all of today, but it is not tomorrow. Elton has always been lonely. No matter how hard he works, no matter how well he plays the piano, he can't get a hug. His father is gone, his mother is cold, and his manager is betrayed. When he is most embarrassed, he may have nothing but music. Elton's experience is distressing, but it has also made him. His world is unique and sensitive, lonely and full of desire. When expressed through music, it hits everyone's heart, and he is loved by the world. As people often say, happiness is always the same, but there are thousands of kinds of sadness. Some people are born poor, some people have bad careers, and some people have broken families... People can't choose their original family and living environment, so some people are careful , Some people are not good at words... But the past really gave people a different world view, some people may be more emotional and can write moving chapters, some people may be more able to study the world, to change the world, to achieve people Today, but gave a fulcrum to see the sun tomorrow. Although the world is terrifying, there are still people who love you. Sadness The world is terrible.

Elton is lucky. When his parents didn't care, grandma said they should get him a teacher. When he couldn't find the words to entrust his music, there was a lyricist who was willing to write him lyrics one song after another, but in reality Elton met the person he loved... So when he was sad, there might be someone Looking for you on the street crying on the side, he wants to give you a hug. Reconcile with yourself and choose the future you want.

    [B+] It seems that most of the music and biographical movies cannot escape the standard templates such as "Lack of Love Childhood", "Famous World", "Lost Self", and "Looking Back at the Shore". It seems that this is all about biographical movies. Compared with the neat production and perfect restoration of "Bohemian Rhapsody", this "Rocket Man" focuses more on the visual gorgeousness and the combination of song and dance art. I really enjoyed the several song and dance performances, that kind of dream. The feeling of constant friction, collision and fusion with reality can't be better...

    This movie gives me the feeling that it is Bomi 2.0. It's not that the life experiences of the two musicians are very similar, but the entry points of the two movies are very similar, and both movies have scripts that are seriously insufficient to rely on music to make up. question. But the look and feel of this movie is a little worse than that of Bomi. The use of music in this film is so frequent that after watching it, there is not even a single song that impresses me. This is what Bomi will do in the last 20 minutes of performance. Much better. And the script in the second half of the film is not full enough to cause the protagonist's emotions to look so inexplicable, and the sense of substitution is a bit bad. However, the music in this film is very good, and the conversation of the last group of people is also a small highlight. It is not a particularly bad movie. Talen's performance is a very big highlight of this film. Although it looks better than the prototype, so the sense of substitution at the beginning is not very strong, but the overall grasp of the emotion of the performance is quite good, and the whole film Talen turned out to be true. It's not easy to sing just to sing these songs well, it's worth an Oti.

Rocketman quotes

  • John Reid: There are moments in a rock star's life that define who he is and how people perceive him as he ascends into the heavens. You lit the blue touch paper. Now we can all see you shooting light and color into the night sky. Where there was darkness, there is now... you, Elton John. You could do anything you want. You can be anyone you want. And it's going to be a wild ride.

  • Elton John: [from trailer; singing] And I think it's gonna be a long, long time. Till touch down brings me round again to find, I'm not the man they think I am at home. Oh no no no, I'm a rocketman!
