Rocketman - Love Lost is Hard to Find
from Cinematic Doctrine: A Movie Review Podcast Hosted by Christians · host Melvin Benson
Send us a Question!MOVIE REVIEW: Producers wanted nothing more than Rocketman to push for a PG-13 rating, yet Elton John would say every time: I have not led a PG-13 life. And when it comes right down to it, I don't think most people have. I believe that's what makes this film such a fascinating, magical experience. Brilliant visuals and mystical moments in Rocketman are more than simply a dream-inspired retelling of Elton John's life, but a translation of what it's like to be human, to remember, to want, to hope, to love. Sometimes, that's a hard road to walk, and it can either make us or break us.Rocketman is Rated R for language throughout, some drug use and sexual content. It features Taron Egerton, Richard Madden, Bryce Dallas Howard, and Jamie Bell. Directed by Dexter Fletcher. Tune in Wednesday nights for new episodes of Cinematic Doctrine!
