A poorly constructed doco mostly filled with nutty opinions from two completely irrelevant commentators who are experts in nothing but self importance. It uses mobile phone footage for one performance, footage from a Wham! concert while talking about an Elton show from 1975, and interviews that don't align to the narrative of the content. It congratulates Nancy Reagen for her role in dealing with the AIDS epidemic (!) and apparently the drugs Elton was addicted to came in blister packs! AWFUL!
