Rather superficial account of a great rock band

Rating: 5/10 (14 September 2019)

This movie seemed to be more a collection of loosely connected vignettes about how Queen came up with a few of their songs. Freddie is portrayed as pretty much an out-of-control diva all the time. Rami Malek does a decent job portraying Freddie; but the movie doesn't really seem to capture the essence of this transformative band. One bright spot is that the film has introduced Queen to a new generation of music lovers.
