Review
"The point of "Rocketman" isn't self-aggrandizement. It's fan service of an especially and characteristically generous kind."--New York Times"As much as "Rocketman" reminds of just how many outstanding songs Elton John has recorded, it also digs into the pain and emotion that lie within those toe-tapping treasures."--USA Today"Fletcher is the real star of this show, a director whose enthusiasm for musical storytelling shines through every frame, hitting all the emotional high notes."--Observer (UK)"Rocketman manages to be campy and yet sincere, serious and yet ridiculous, profound and yet silly, and quite wonderful. Just like Elton himself."--Chicago Sun-Times
