    Really straining the limits of objective rating here to give this a full four stars because I probably like this movie more than anyone else in the world

    ★★½

    Uninspired heist film has some fun but mostly gets dragged down by plot and fails to achieve its potential - could have been a fun and thrilling European romp like Charade or To Catch a Thief. Rex Harrison phones it in and Rita Hayworth is off her game.

    ★★★★

    Taron Egerton gives a heartfelt and unflinching performance; well-scripted and paced until the predictable and plodding last quarter drags brings what had been an innovative magical realist musical biopic back down to earth. Seanless integration of most Elton’s hits is most impressive bit, or maybe second best behind the incredible costumes.
