ROCKETMAN

 Watchable. An old-school musical. Awfully shallow for the first half. From the 69th minute, it gains depth and you soon find yourself fully immersed in the tragic loneliness of yet another celebrity. The songs, performed not by Elton John but by Giles Martin, all sound the same and only the final (before the credits) "I'm Still Standing" is joyful. The story ends well too.
