Glitzy, Fantasy Musical Based on Fact...Perfect Depiction of Elton
This was an interesting movie and not your typical biopic. It has many layers and every time I view it, I see something different or new. What catches the viewer is how Elton storms into group therapy wearing a Devil Angel costume. He lists all of his addictions (drugs, sex, alcohol, bulimia, shoppping). Some of the dialogue is tongue in cheek, but there's still a serious tone to it. Every time the scene goes from excerpts of Elton's life to the group therapy scene, Elton has removed something from his costume: first the devil's horns, then the wings, until he strips away all the artifice and layers as he gets better until he's wearing ordinary clothes like everyone else. We see his journey leading up to his addictions: the cold father, the hypercritical mother, the child prodigy, the rock star. Elton does everything to kill Reginald Dwight and his past. In the end, he learns to embrace his inner child and love himself. As somebody going through personal difficulty, I can relate to Elton's story. I don't have Elton's talent to carry me through to a life of luxury and the best therapy money can buy. It was inspiring to finally see adult Elton embrace little Reggie and I'm hoping I can learn to love myself as well. I wish Elton the best and like the man himself, this biopic is glitzy, outrageous at times, moving, colorful and never dull. I also enjoyed hearing Taron singing Elton's greatest hits. Taron Egerton does a fantastic job portraying Elton John He's not a lookalike, but he embodies the singer's mannerism, personality and he can sing. I loved Jamie Bell as Bernie Taupman--he had the look down perfectly for each decade. The actor who was quite the scene stealer was the very photogenic Richard Madden as the calculating John Reid. He played the villain with a cold sensuality and was a person you despised, in spite of his movie-star good looks. The child who played Elton as a little boy was a doppelganger--he looked so much like him from the photos I've seen.This is an enjoyable film you will watch over and over. While it's more of a fantasy biopic, there's truth behind the glitz and it's a creative yet appropriate way to explore the life of a very colorful, flamboyant entertainer.
