Movie in 3 parts

Rating: 7/10 (2 March 2019)

The first part of the movie is basically a rock video with a little bit of story involved, part 2 of the movie is the biggest part of the movie and here we are taken down a rabbit hole of intrigue, betrayal, depression and self-distruction. This movie betrays what is possibly the greatest vocalist of our time as troubled and highly manipulated. The end, or part 3 of the movie is in some way a slight vindication of the man and the musician. The overall effect of the movie is scattered and jumbled yet also telling and compelling. It is a movie worthy of watching simply for the music. But it also allows you to see inside the mind of a musical genius. Queen will forever be rock royalty and while this movie doesn't live up to the legendary status of the band it gives us all an idea of what it took to elevate themselves to such a prominent place in the world's culture. Queen, the band is a 10/10. The movie at best is a 8/10, for now I will give it a 7.
