Bohemian Rhapsody is a foot-stomping celebration of Queen, their music and their extraordinary lead singer Freddie Mercury. Freddie defied stereotypes and shattered convention to become one of the most beloved entertainers on the planet. The film traces the meteoric rise of the band through their iconic songs and revolutionary sound. They reach unparalleled success, but in an unexpected turn Freddie, surrounded by darker influences, shuns Queen in pursuit of his solo career. Having suffered greatly without the collaboration of Queen, Freddie manages to reunite with his band mates just in time for Live Aid. While bravely facing a recent AIDS diagnosis, Freddie leads the band in one of the greatest performances in the history of rock music. Queen cements a legacy that continues to inspire outsiders, dreamers and music lovers to this day.
REVIEW:
I love Freddie Mercury and Queen, so when I saw this movie I couldn't pass it up!
I'm so glad I got to see this epic biopic look at not only Freddie but the band. It was more focused on Freddie though, and I was okay with that. When he died, I was in high school and remember him well. This movie did his life justice, even the tough parts that maybe didn't put Freddie in the best light.
This film had me choked up a couple of times. Those moments were so raw, since I did live through that era. The music was everything you wanted it to be. I was singing my heart out.
The guy who plays Freddie is amazing, but believe me when I tell you, the guy who played Brian May stole the show for me. He was a dead ringer!!!!
A fantastic film!! If you watch it, I guarantee you will love it!
