I checked out “Better Man,” a Robbie Williams biopic featuring a CG monkey – quite unexpected for me. It’s not my typical action-packed movie, but it was actually pretty good!
Content and Themes: This film isn’t for kids; it deals with heavy stuff like drug abuse, abortion, and the complexities of young love, mixed with a lot of adult language. It really focuses on the influence a father can have and dives deep into Robbie’s personal struggles, including imposter syndrome and the loneliness of fame. A great watch if you want to get your kids into the entertainment industry though.
Technical Aspects: The movie’s editing and cutting were top-notch, playing with time and perspective in a way that keeps you guessing. The match cuts were epic. The dance sequences were standout, and there was this bizarre, symbolic battle scene that felt like something out of “Sucker Punch.”
Performance and Production: The acting, singing, and overall production were on point. It was well-directed and had moments that really hit you in the feels, especially with how they portrayed Robbie’s relationship with his father. This movie really presses hard on why kids need their dad and the damage it can do to the young psyche when he’s not around.
Recommendation: I give “Better Man” 4 out of 5 blades. Definitely worth a watch in theaters, even for someone like me who usually goes for action. It made me see Robbie Williams in a new light.
