Bohemian Rhapsody

I thought it was STUNNING! @jaian cuttari. I’m just wondering and a bit confused how you are shocked that a BIOPIC about QUEEN would have drugs , sex and gay in it? Everything isn’t political and Freddy was a bisexual rock star that died of AIDS! Anyway fabulous movie. Must see (unless of course you are a conservative prude) and in that case you should see it twice and maybe it will lighten you up! 😎

I absolutely enjoyed it! Rami deserves an Oscar nod for his portrayal as Freddie. You can tell he studied his video footage, performances etc to nail the role and that he did. Great supporting cast members as well. It made me laugh, cry and bop my head to their hits.

Appropriately for a group known for its theatrical, crowd-pleasing tunes, this authorised-by-the-band biopic carries itself lightly, serving up familiar plot points with panache and a sense of humour, while at the same time investing in the story’s emotional through-line, building to a genuinely moving climax.

To the filmmakers' credit, and even though they don't entirely avoid the clunky factoid-itis that often plagues the genre, this is a biopic that favors sensory experience over exposition. It understands what pure, electrifying fun rock 'n' roll can be.
