Lucybespro It is a performances centric movie

Mathilde the Guild Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.

Ginger Very good movie overall, highly recommended. Most of the negative reviews don't have any merit and are all pollitically based. Give this movie a chance at least, and it might give you a different perspective.

Roxie The thing I enjoyed most about the film is the fact that it doesn't shy away from being a super-sized-cliche;

johnstonjames Hilarious. I've always felt that 'Rocketman' was one of Disney's best and most under-appreciated live-action films of the last thirty years. It has so many elements of the traditional formula that makes it so Disney, as a die-hard fan, I find it hard to resist.This film is a homage to so much of what Disney loved. It really is a reference to the innovative 'Man in Space' series from the 1950's 'Wonderful World of Disney', and from movies like Disney's 60's comedy 'Moon Pilot'. Not to mention the references to Pinocchio.Harland Williams is not exactly the type of comedian you would expect to see in a family comedy, but then again, neither is Eddie Murphy or even, say Buddy Hackett, for that matter. All of those comics have a pretty raunchy sense of humour outside of their Disney films. I've seen William's stand up humour outside of 'Rocketman', and it is pretty vulgar and college. In this Disney film it is completely wholesome and harmless with perhaps the exception of a scene that features drunkenness.The only thing that may possibly offend is the reference to evolution at the expense of Michelangelo and the Vatican ceiling. But hey. Disney himself was a devout Christian who didn't bother to question science. Very few people did in the 50's. Ever been to a Disney park and seen the different stages of man in evolution? I have. Seen 'Spaceship Earth'? I have. Need I go on? I bet you wish I wouldn't. Look it's not our fault yall wanna start all over again.This might just well prove to be the funniest if not the most controversial film experience of the twentieth century next to '2001: A Space Odyssey'. Anyway you feel on the subject of evolution, this film will blow your roof and rocket you to Mars and beyond.

quagland3000 Okay, It's been 12 years since this movie came out. I was 4 when it was released. I first saw it on Disney Channel, and after that...I STILL CANT GET THE IMAGE OF HARLAND SCREAMING IN PAIN WHEN THE CHIMP BITES HIM! Rolling around in that office with the clearly stuffed monkey. In a regular movie this would be seen as cheesy and childish. OH NOT ROCKETMAN SIR, NO NOT THIS. I have seen a lot of Harland Williams movies: his older ones: Dumb and Dumber(C'mon give it here you pumpkin pie haircutted freak!) Half Baked(Oh you like popcorn don't'ya?Makes your teeth go,POPPOPaPOP!) even his creepier but funny uncredited role in Something About Mary (Why do 8 minute abs when there's 6 minute abs?!) Rocketman(Commander are you sure were heading towards planet earth it looks a lot like the sun! Don't question my authority you incompetent fool!AGAAHhhhhhaahahaha..mornin!) And of course Freddy got Fingered (his scream alone is hilarious: AAAAHUeueee!!!AAAAAHueeee!!!HEEEHAhhHEEHAahhAAAAAHuee!!!) Even his newer stuff Employee of the Month and hes got his new sketch movie Child wild But I think Rocketman is him at his best!

joliettim When I first saw this movie there were times I was laughing so much and so hard that I had trouble catching my breath! Sometimes ya need an ultra-slapstick, goofy movie to dump the weight of the world right off your shoulders and this movie did it for me. Harland Williams is a comic actor genius. HA! The film is a sensational rarity where kids and adults can just be total laughing fools at Williams' antics in this comic "masterpiece of resistance." Lordy, right from the beginning, clear through to the end, the impressive comic craft work, hilarious jokes and physical comedy does not let up. Harland Williams is, without doubt, one of THE most funny actors in the business and I wish that we could all see him in more films. The cool thing about this film is that it sure spits in the eye of all of the pretentious movie snobs who would look down on this film labeling it "unsophisticated, sophomoric" base humor...in reality, this work shows all of us where REAL comedy can take us...like on a ride that is just as thrilling as any hyped up amusement park roller coaster! A GREAT MOVIE FOR ALL TIME...this and "What About Bob?"!

reverendtom Harland Williams is great. He has a brand of weird, off the wall humor that is strictly his own, which is a good thing. This movie is really the only "Harland Williams vehicle" I know of and I think its pretty durn funny. Its extremely stupid, but it reminds me of the 80s, when PG rated zany comedies were a common thing. This would be a great movie for kids, and as a 27 year old, I think its pretty funny even for adults. The story is basically very simple and quite dumb, but Williams bizarre antics keep it interesting and funny. When a movie spends about 10 minutes on a fart joke, you know you're dealing with some juvenile entertainment. So, just enjoy it.
