So much potential to be so much better

Rating: 6/10 (7 March 2019)

Had potential but I was not impressed with its lack of edge and griity details. Rather it moved so quickly at times I could glance away to get my drink and an untold number of years had gone by. Felt like a rag to riches story or underdog who succeeds on his Jr. High sports team. One of the last scenes is of his performance from Live Aid that had all of Freddie's band mates gawking unabashed approval at him of how good he is felt contrived and insulting to my intelligence. Overall it was enjoyable but easy to pause to prepare dinner or answer a telemarketing call from a call bank in India.
