“Great Movie”
Written on: 16/06/2021 by RumiSalian12 (2 reviews written)
‘Bohemian Rhapsody’ the movie has had exactly the same reception as the band Queen - that is one of smug aloofness from the middle-class broadsheet critics. Predictably Malek’s performance is praised whilst the film is mocked as ‘boring’ ‘predictable’ even ‘like Spinal Tap’.

“Yes definitely worth watching”
Written on: 29/05/2021 by ElleIngria (7 reviews written)
Just saw it and was blown away by the performance of Rami Malek. Yes definitely worth watching in a good sounding cinema. If anything, just to experience it. Watching it on TV will make it into "just another" movie.

“ I like a film”
Written on: 28/05/2021 by JessaPeeters1 (7 reviews written)
If I like a film I give 4 stars. If a film has blown me away it gets 5. I listened to Freddie Mercury's albums with Queen through my teenage years and was blown away by their writing, performances, musical skills, musicianship, creativity and sheer passion. This movie displays all of this and more.

“Not that Good”
Written on: 29/04/2021 by KianLouis (7 reviews written)
AV Club writer Jesse Hassenger says in his review, "'Bohemian Rhapsody' is not a subtle movie, nor is it a very good one. But it runs through the greatest hits with a lot of energy." IndieWire critic David Ehrlich says, "(It's) a broad, frivolous, and uselessly formulaic biopic

“This film is wonderful”
Written on: 08/04/2021 by ArmeniaSweden (5 reviews written)
This film is wonderful, speaking as a Queen fan. It's fun and genuine, just like Queen were. The music comes across brilliantly and reminds you of how much the band achieved and how adaptable they were. The contrast between the Englishness and normalcy of the band off stage and the scale and power of their on stage presence comes across really well.

“The best movie ever.”
Written on: 20/02/2021 by EvaNavak (5 reviews written)
The best movie ever. Everyone in this cast is top tier talent. They all have similar characterists to the person they potray. Joe Mazzello, eyes and facial features close to John, there's even a video of Joe dancing to a song so sassily and iconic.

“One of the greatest of all time.”
Written on: 17/12/2020 by BentleeWilliams (7 reviews written)
A touching glimpse of the life of a very sensitive and passionate young man who aspires and inspires the incredible 'Queen' and impart finds himself in Freddie Mercury. A unique and gifted and unforgettable soulful singer and performer. One of the greatest of all time.

“Great Film”
Written on: 31/07/2020 by harrisonkennedy (4 reviews written)
There's a scene in "Bohemian Rhapsody" I keep coming back to, because it's symbolic of the film's problems, not just with its presentation of Queen, but of Freddie Mercury, the legendary lead singer and the greatest frontman of all time. Bohemian Rhapsody" is bad in the way a lot of biopics are bad: it's superficial, it avoids complexity, and the narrative has a connect-the-dots quality. This kind of badness, while annoying, is relatively benign. However, the attitude towards Mercury's sexual expression is the opposite of benign. The tensions of being a gay man in the 1970s are not handled or even addressed. He himself seems unaware of his own sexual desires you cannot discuss Freddie Mercury without discussing the queer sensibility driving him, the queer context in which he operated. Or, you can try, as this film does, but you will fail.

“Bohemian Rhapsody film telling the story of Freddie...”
Written on: 26/10/2018 by geezergazza16 (1 review written)
Went to see the film yesterday evening and thoroughly enjoyed it. It tells the story of Farrokh Bulsara (Freddie Mercury) from 1970 when he joined the band up to the Live Aid concert on July 13th, 1985. Rami Malek (from Mr. Robot) plays the part of Freddie Mercury and he does this extremely well with a truly great musical and personal portrayal of the Queen front man and historical icon. The backstory of Freddie`s strict upbringing and relationship with Mary (Lucy Boynton) and his interest in parties, clubs, men and drugs and the admission of bisexuality following his announcement of engagement to Mary is handled without any descent into seedy overtones and uncomfortableness. Even the eventual realisation of HIV infection is handled sensitively and with decorum. The portrayal of Freddie by Rami is amazing, albeit with a new set of teeth but the strength is in the music and banter with fellow Queen members and this is a great tribute to an amazing performer and a brilliant rock band. The film runs for 2 hours 12 minutes and also stars Ben Hardy as Roger Taylor, Gwilym Lee as Brian May, Mike Myers as Ray Foster, Tom Hollander as Jim Beach and Aiden Gillen as John Reid.
