Too short at 2hr 14min

Rating: 7/10 (1 November 2018)

Well, superfans will always find fault with anything like this, because they know every last detail, but the average bloke in the street will (and does) love it as a celebration of Freddie and Queen. I personally really liked it, but think it would probably have been better handled as a 6 part miniseries, because at 2hr 14mins it actually felt rushed. Malek's performance was nothing short of amazing! Most of the writing was suitably camp as Christmas and also very cheesy... and we know they always rewrite history with these things for dramatic effect, just look at Darkest Hour. Overall, a great movie for fans and non fans alike to just enjoy and not over analyse.
