No. 109 (2018) Bohemian Rhapsody Dec 9th.

Film No. 109 (2018) December 9th.  4:40 PM EVENT Cinemas Innaloo.                        

"Good thoughts, good words, good deeds. Just like you taught me, papa. (Freddy hugs his father before making his way to Queen's Live Aid performance).







An excellent, colour by numbers, collective of Queen; more specifically Freddy Mercury, and the roots of their unique sound. And boy, does the sound of Queen spark those, 'where was I then?' thoughts as Bohemian Rhapsody, Killer Queen, Someone to Love, etc inundate your senses. Rami Malek is the real show stealer. He works Freddy with the compassion Mercury obviously deserved, with all his bravado and insecurities perfectly weighted. The creative kernels behind the sounds we all know keep our attention but the show stopper to B R is the 20 minute reenactment of Queen's Live Aid performance at Wembley Stadium. The brilliance of this stanza had the hairs on the back of my neck brisling. R.I.P. Freddy M9GUMS.
