A crowd-pleaser, celebrating movie.

Rating: 10/10 (6 November 2018)

Saw this movie yesterday. I definetly recommend it for those who love Queen and non-Queen lovers as well.
I am a true fan of this band, and even when there are some inaccurate facts as they did not happen that way, I understand that it was made to reenforce the dramatic proposal of the film.
A film long awaited and really complex in the making. And I think, as a fan, that is hard to balance and condense fifteen years of a band like this one in just two hours. I think the bad reviews are justified because some people wanted a different approach, a little bit gorier, controversial or extreme. That is the reason they criticise, because they never understood Queen as the band and great part of the fandom did . It is true that this whole story of Freddie, Brian, John & Roger is so full of great moments from 1970 to 1991 -and beyond- that it may have deserved an 8 hour miniseries.
But nevertheless, I can't ask for more. This film has a great casting (Rami Malek you'll be in my heart forever, and you deserve tons of awards) , great directing, great costumes and most of all... Great music. (Isn't that what we came for?)
I give it a 10 to bring my quota of balance against those f** critics (they never understood Queen nor Freddie, so I don't expect for them to do it now). This movie is less than a ten out of ten because isn't a masterpiece, but this is my heart speaking. This film is released with extra care for the artistry, the music and the songs that changed many people's life. I left the theater cheering, drenched in tears and happy as no one of the appraised films of this year could make me.
Queen was a crowd-pleaser band. And this film is intended to be a crowd-pleaser one. So people are loving it, and critics don't . Just like any album they made. They'll never get it.
Long live Queen!!!!
