Absurd plot

Stands the test of time

I would like, if I may, to take you on a strange journey.

It's hard to describe a movie like Rocky Horror. A musical, sci-fi, horror, comedy?!? Well yes, but that doesn't do it justice. It is an experience..... no, I mean it. Ask the thousands of fans who still flock to midnight showings, dressed up as their favorite characters, ready to do the time warp again. So why to we enjoy this adventure of Brad Majors and his fiancee Janet Weis? Because! We don't need to explain ourselves to you. So, come up to the lab, and see what's on the slab. I see you shiver with antici............ pation

Great Scott! What an excellent review! Perchance were you one of the midnight revelers? I spent nearly every weekend of High School doing the Time Warp at The Vogue Theater, dressed in a bustier, getting, garter belt, and fishnet stockings. Sometimes both Friday and Saturday viewings. I inducted many a virgin to the Rocky Horror experience. What a blast those days were.

Love it

Where do I start.
There are no surprises to why this blew up and was so popular.
The cast are fantastic and play each role beautifully. You feel each character and feel every emotion they portray.
The music and chorography were so great, creating such a scene perfect for stage and screen. They complimented each other perfectly.
I can watch this movie over and over and I know for sure my mood will be lifted after.
I do believe the music and showmanship of the film make the film. By this I mean that if it was just a standard movie without the musical element it would have flopped.

Out of this world (pun intended)

Turn on and switch off... Of reality.

Taron Egerton delivers a stellar performance as Redge Dwight evolves into his colourful, camp, outrageous alterego Elton John.

A beautifully made film charting the ups and downs of singer, from childhood to megastar. The script delivers raw honesty and for someone that wasn't completely au fait with Elton's turbulent life, I felt honoured to share in his madness.

A collective mix of musical numbers with backing tracks allow the viewer to bath in the huge catologue of hits.

Stick it on and enjoy solid acting, writing and directing. Taron is brave, vulnerable and as the Rocket an, shows he is set for the stars.
