Better Man (2024)

When you press play, the echo of a childhood anthem stirs the entire screen. Better Man lifts the pop icon into cinematic light, pairing the rhythmic energy of Take That with the quiet tremor of personal sacrifice. A standout scene sees Robbie unhooking from a crowd, backed by a live orchestra that mirrors his internal conflict, an almost solitary moment that feels audacious. You’ll find yourself drawn into a narrative that feels almost cinematic, as if the soundtrack itself were a companion character. There is a slight pacing hiccup late in the third act, but the film’s emotional resonance salvages the moment.
