Elton's second Top Ten Hit (U.K) peaking at Number 2. - Quite a film, quite a story beneath the razzle-dazzle, the songs and dance. The story telling of Reginald Dwights (Matthew Illesley a little older played by Kit Connor) early life, when he finds it difficult to connect with his mother and get the attention he wanted from his father. Early on, he develops a love for music finding he has a real talent on the piano keyboard, his grandmother encourages this. When starting out trying to break into the world of music and recording he is introduced to Bernie Taupin (Jamie Bell) a talented lyricist the two hit it off almost immediately, now calling himself Elton John (Taron Egerton) he puts the tunes to Bernie's lyrics. This a friendship and partnership that will stand the test of time, the two penning many a song between them (may chart hits) However, Elton struggles beyond his friendship with Bernie to discover who he really is and who he can trust. In between the success he'll find real love hard to find, he'll drink too much, and take too many drugs. This the underlying story of Elton's early years, both as a boy and that of a pop/rock'n'roll superstar. Obviously the story with Elton involved in the film is how he wanted to be portrayed early in his life and indeed career. With many great memories in song, It's a moving watch. ......maybe not for all, but if you love the music give it a go.

This is a sort of biopic of Sir Elton John`s life in movie form, the singing and the music is fabulous and just like being at his concert! The actor`s who portray all of the parts are magnificent including Taron Egerton who plays Elton and who sings all of the music by him! The executive producer is Elton John himself as he wanted the film to be historically correct, it has many sad parts but also some very happy and enjoyable parts too?! I enjoyed watching this film so much and have watched it 3 x times already!! Don`t hesitate, just buy it, you won`t be disappointed!

Brilliant.

As expected

While it might be compared to the recent Queen Movie (Bohemian Rhapsody), this is an actual Musical as well as a biography; meaning we're treated to song and dance numbers, fantasy sequences and more. It's quite on the nose at times so maybe not really for the kids (at least without a little forewarning) - some mildly explicit sex, drugs and rock 'n' roll on display. But it's a blast - never takes itself too seriously, and puts on a flamboyant show. The music is reworked and resung by the actors and they do a great job. Well worth the watch, even if you don't care for Elton John's music.

The movie is fine and very similar to Bohemian Rhapsody. Blu ray Video 4.8 But... audio is very bad. The dialogues are unclear and when I increase the volume the audio becomes blurred and worse. I tried to change my tv audio settings but still I cannot undetstand 90% of what I hear.

Un film popolare, di grande intrattenimento, in stile musical, ma in salsa vagamente psicoanalitica. Al di là della meraviglia per gli occhi a livello estetico (costumi, scene, regia in stato di grazia) quello che c'è qui e manca totalmente in "bohemian Rapsody" è lo svelamento dell'uomo, delle sue tante fragilità, risolte con le dipendenze, l'anaffettività della famiglia, la disperazione, la risalita. Un film che difficilmente può non piacere, in cui le canzoni ri-arrangiate e cantate da un Taron Egerton da oscar esaltano e moltiplicano le emozioni.

Excellent film, je recommande

Le DVD tel qu'au cinéma, bon prix, bonne qualité

Meraviglioso...catartico e con delle musiche da sogno come solo lui sa fare. Intérprete eccezionale!
