Several scenes make me laugh out loud. It's not a brainy movie and it's not a super realistic movie (Disney). It's a funny kids movie. I've seen it several times and it's still good. The realism is pretty good for a comedy adventure.

I remember watching this movie in the early 2000s and as a kid finding it absolutely hilarious. I recently rewatched it and the thing about this movie that I realized is that you can't take it seriously at all. I would treat this movie the same way that I treated watching The Three Stooges. If you feel the need to try and pick it apart then this isn't the kind of movie for you. It's meant for slapstick humor and dumb jokes and bits.

Is this a compelling movie? Absolutely not.

Is it still funny and entertaining? Absolutely.

Disney's 1997 movie "RocketMan" is a very funny film about space exploration. Here, a boy's dream is to go out to outer space. He spent most of his time looking at the Earth when the father wondered why he should be like most boys, playing football and stuff!!!!! (LOL I remember that) Well, several years later, this man ended up going to NASA and started training for space!!!!! This was hilarious, as evidenced from the isolation chamber scene (he screamed "JOHN JACOB JINGLE" over and over again, scaring the other man to death!!!!!). Finally, this man was selected to go up to Mars and the rest, I will leave hush-hush so that you can see for yourself!!!!!

"RocketMan" may be a forgotten film now, but it's a great one. Watch it; you won't be disappointed!!!!!
