BETTER MAN

2024 (Australia) 131 minutes

Directed by: Michael Gracy

This exuberant musical biopic charts Robbie Williams’ journey as a child raised to worship at the altar of Frank Sinatra, who finds his own voice first as a teenager with Take That and later as a solo artist. No hagiography, the drama frankly portrays the addictions and demons that accompany Williams’ rise to acclaim as well as the impostor syndrome that vividly manifests as he performs. The Greatest Showman director Michael Gracey’s sophomore feature contrasts Williams’ personal struggles with the absolute joy of his music, adding to the mix of recording sessions, club dates, arena shows, and extravagant and irresistible song-and-dance sequences. But the film’s biggest strengths are its unconventional approach to an artist’s life and Jonno Davies’ soulful, cheeky, and self-lacerating performance that proves he is a “better man,” as is Williams himself.
