No words...

Rating: 10/10 (2 November 2018)

Had been looking forward to this film for a long time. But was sceptical that anyone could portray Freddie in all his genius and mystique. Boy was I wrong. Malik is beyond words and if he doesn't win an Oscar then there is no justice in the film industry.
I have the privilege to say that I was at Live Aid and the scenes and music are flawless. It was surreal sitting there almost reliving the experience of Queen from the stage looking down, I was looking for myself!! I was broken at the end tho and it took a full 10 minutes before I could get up and leave the cinema. All of the actors portrayed the legends that are Queen so exactly that, as others have said I forgot it wasn't them. The only thing that was bitter sweet was the scene where Freddie tells the boys he has Aids. This didn't happen for another two years but I suppose they had to mark his illness in some way an then finish with Live Aid. Brilliant film, but I will have to leave it a while before I watch it again, my heart can't take it. Made me realise how much the world misses our Freddie... our King of Misfits. ðŸ’”ðŸ’”
