Better Man - Reviews

Forget Wicked, this is the best movie musical of the year.

Walking a dizzying line between the stupid and the profound, this exuberant, positively unique biopic is as hard to resist as it is to believe that it got made in the first place.

The best musical biopic about a singing chimp you’ll see this year.

Pharrell’s plastic-fantastic LEGO biopic.

While it avoids all thorny entanglements, it looks good and feels great, like any LEGO movie should.

...a lot to love about this telling. Much of this has to do with both the committed performances and the rigorous direction by Gracey...

Pharrell’s Lego biopic deserves to be a blockbuster.

...a testament both to Williams' genius and the support, courage, humility, and perseverance it takes to succeed.

Robbie Williams monkey biopic is a bananas gamble that pays off.

...a thoroughly unique musical biopic centered on British pop star Robbie Williams.

There is great tenderness and sensitivity here. And a bleach-blond chimp in a red Adidas tracksuit. It’s a heady concoction.

...tells Pharrell Williams' story with Lego, a combination that clicks.

...a solid effort to bring a true story from the music industry to the big screen in a way that is mainstream and more intriguing than your typical biopic...

Ridiculously enjoyable Robbie Williams biopic with the bold gambit of having a CG-chimpanzee in the title role paying off handsomely.

Robbie Williams’s dazzling biopic is pure monkey magic.

...one of the most visually inventive and uplifting films in recent years.
