Anyone ever fancied a Robbie Williams biopic where he's played by a monkey?

 

This looks like the stupidest thing to ever exist, but it's actually 86% on Rotten Tomatoes (after 22 reviews)

Oh lord! Those will be the showbiz sycophants. Showbiz Chancer Robbie Williams is another Geri Halliwell: not talented, but chanced their way to the top. Hard pass.

The funniest part of the trailer is him telling Glen to f*** off

Saw it on Saturday. Absolutely brilliant and in my opinion was better than the Greatest Showman

I saw this a few days ago. I enjoyed it, much more than I assumed I would when it was first announced. The one thing that frustrated me though (and it’s a gripe with a lot of biopics for me) was the timeline of everything. I was fully expecting them to go more into ‘Angels’ being the song that took off and saved his career (and I think they should have done a special new version of it for the scene that ‘Angels’ did actually appear in)

 

The ‘Rock DJ’ and ‘Let Me Entertain You’ sequences were fantastic. So well done!

 

A good biopic that I thought would help me empathise with him more, but unfortunately I just came out feeling the same. But this is worth the watch.
