Robbie Williams as a monkey? No, it’s not the worst idea of ​​the year!

Colossal surprise: the film dedicated to the ex-idol of the group Take That, “dressed” as a monkey for the occasion, stands out in the devastated landscape of the musical biopic, a genre where hagiography and promotion are (almost) always good housekeeping. Explanations.

Let’s admit it: we didn’t expect anything from Better Manthe biopic devoted to Robbie Williams, and we had some good reasons for that. The pedigree of the English pop star, ex-member of the boy band Take That and author of numerous insipid hits in his solo career (Feel, Angels, Candy), seemed to promise a parade of conventional images on (sighs) the extraordinary destiny of the young professional from Stoke-on-Trent who had become a global star.
