I went to see Better Man yesterday and I found myself comparing it to Rocketman with the musical numbers; absentee father and his relationship with his nan. I knew certain aspects of Robbie Williams life and career beforehand but I wasn’t too keen on it. Perhaps it came down to the vision, the editing and direction. I just felt that Elton John has had a far more interesting and colourful life and his songs get to really shine in his film. The thing is I’ve never had a problem at all with Robbie Williams songs or his career.
