Better Man Ratings & Reviews
- Hugues GrelierApril 10, 2026Wooooow !!! How did I ever miss this little gem? A great movie, in the same vein as biopics like *Bohemian Rhapsody*. An added bonus is the 3D character, beautifully portrayed by the actor. Don't miss it, folks!
- DreMarch 24, 2025Nice story telling. And use of a chimp as the main character without looking like a racist thing 😂
- ZaCkOnEMarch 20, 2026Rewatch x1
- RicardoV_NLFebruary 3, 2026expected to be disappointed, but this one surprised me very much. A great story and you really don't "see" the monkey in the story. It was a great watch.
- Corbin BishopDecember 18, 2025Little typical and cliche, but man, it was absolutley gorgeous! Some crazy shots and musical sequences. Very cool. Props to anyone that can get clean and live your life.
- MrReclusiveNovember 18, 2025Still have no idea who Robbie Williams is. But this is fun and entertaining movie, and Im really enjoying the trend of wrapping biography's into something unique. Again, no idea who Robbie Williams was, if this was just a normal biography, never would of watched it. but I'm simple, Ill watch the monkey man movie. Just like lego pharell.
- chriss4198November 9, 2025Such an entertaining movie. Should have been given a stronger look in the states. Clever spin on the traditional musician documentary.
- stuhannafordMay 21, 2025Chronologically all over the shop. Jumpy, skipping over the parts of a life you’re expecting to re-witness. Hiding away from the Robbie we know from stage and screen… but that’s the point. Instead, we get a blunt look at Robert, the singing, dancing monkey. It’s by no means perfect, but it’s not meant to be. It’s about a cheeky monkey who struggled to find meaning once fame took hold, and failed to fulfil his hopes. The moments important to fans are skimmed and glossed over, straight to the times of unseen heartache that enveloped someone trying to navigate the world under constant scrutiny, often his own. A messy look through a lens, at times grimy, but most certainly honest. Entertained.
- neuroparadoxJuly 24, 2025Pretty interesting biopic even though I still have no Idea who Robbie Williams is, and im pretty sure he's a blood relative of mine irl. 🤣😂🙈 "In the time of chimpanzees, I was a monkey." ---Beck (a singer I've heard of before)
- MisterArtVandaleyMarch 11, 2025Heart whelming and Inspiring . Stunning cinematography and beautiful visuals complement the story perfectly. The movie tells a powerful story of redemption, forgiveness, and personal growth, with outstanding performances from the cast. The film's themes of self-improvement and overcoming adversity are relatable and universal, making it a must-see for anyone looking for a movie that will resonate with them on a deeper level. Overall, Better Man is a fantastic film that will leave you feeling hopeful and inspired. Rating: 5/5 stars!
- tonybl26April 12, 2025Amazing film which should have done loads better at the box office. Incredibly well filmed
- ChrispixFebruary 28, 2025Good movie and soundtrack, worth a watch. I didn't know anything about Robbie, and I enjoyed it.
- Ray HopkinJuly 14, 2025A highly entertaining ride through the life of Robbie Williams, as a chimp? It really worked, I really liked that it didn't try to make him likeable. Some great set pieces, and a great cast behind him (Pemberton and Steadman in particular) makes for a highly entertaining movie.
- nomoJuly 8, 2025Surprisingly entertaining. It deals with drug abuse, depression and suicidal thoughts in a non orthodox manner, questioning the ugly reality of fame.
- Ross GuerinJuly 8, 2025A really enjoyable musical more in the vein of Rocketman than Bohemian Rhapsody and that's a good thing. Though the story is relatively predictable and has classic tropes, I assume it actually happened as the film is based on the rise and ups and downs of Robbie Williams. The creative musical sequences are what drives this and makes it so much fun.
