Go Along For The Ride

(Flash Review)
This was a thorough account of the rise of Freddy Mercury and Queen which culminates in their famous Live Aid performance. A couple bits are hurried and under developed but it does dive more into Freddy wrestling with who he is at his core. It highlights the origination of Queen's biggest hits and how Queen's sound evolved as they went. Also about Freddy's persona was as equally towering as the band's hit songs. Rami Malek became Freddy, gave a stellar performance and really carried the film. To top it off, won the Oscar for Best Actor. They did Queen justice so if you are a fan, you'll certainly enjoy this.
