Picked this up last night and wow... I was absolutely floored, as far as I'm concerned its the best movie about a rock band ever made
I didn't appreciate their greatness during the heyday, liked some of their songs sure, but wouldn't have bought an album or went to see them in concert... my young and dumb musical tastes only cared about macho cock rock like Crüe etc
And who cares about some "gay" band anyway?... what a dummy
This movie was triumphant, and Rami Malek was SENSATIONAL... he had Mercury down STONE COLD, you'd swear it was Freddie up there
The pacing was absolutely perfect, this movie NEVER gets bogged down
I feel awful about what happened to Freddie, damn near ready to cry... his talent was extreme and he was a very caring, gentle soul who got pulled in by the wrong crowd
5 stars all day, every day
