Episode 352 - Better Man – The Biopic Nobody Asked For (Except Brian)
Update: 2025-12-11
Description
This week on Magnificently Huge, Brian makes Chris and Eric sit through the 2025 Robbie Williams biopic, Better Man.
We dig into this weird, high-gloss fever dream of a film that's part jukebox musical, part psychological spiral, and part Bohemian Rhapsody with fewer teeth and more self-pity. There are scenes with Robbie talking to his younger self, scenes with Robbie fighting invisible demons, and scenes where we all started to wonder if this was some sort of elaborate dare.
Join us as we try to figure out who this movie is for, whether narcissism can be considered a cinematic genre, and if Better Man is actually performance art disguised as a biopic—or just punishment from the pop gods.
