I, somewhat weirdly, have no negative feelings about <em>'RocketMan'</em>. That's strange because the film is very bad, there is nothing I even marginally liked - and yet, I have no annoyance towards it. Odd. I think what helps in that regard is the short run time and the fact that I do believe the actors were trying, they were just lumbered with a poor product. Harland Williams plays the role of Fred as well as anyone could have to be honest, while it's nice to see Jeffrey DeMunn - shoutout Dale, <em>'The Walking Dead'</em>. The way the premise is brought to life is the biggest downside...
