excellent

Rating: 9/10 (31 March 2020)

Excellent movie about the extra ordinary life of Freddie Mercury. It's more about him then about Queen itself, which is normal, his life ended due AIDS.
performances are top notch, everybody performing as Queen do look like them, even their way of moving or looking. Is it all that good, no not really. The movie has a positive vibe but there was more going on, Deacon left the band after the death of Freddie, it's not explained why. The movie stops with the death of Freddie. It's also not explained what happend with his solo album(s).
The fun for me was that a comedian, Kenney Everett (also death die AIDS I think) I followed close back then is also in it and he was also so recognisable played by the actor.
Clocking in way over 2 hours the flick is over before you knew it and it's the songs that are still standing that will take you by the throat. Excellent.
