Bohemian Rhapsody
The only thing more extraordinary than their music is his story
Bohemian Rhapsody is a foot-stomping celebration of Queen, their music and
their extraordinary lead singer Freddie Mercury. Freddie defied stereotypes and
shattered convention to become one of the most beloved entertainers on the
planet. The film traces the meteoric rise of the band through their iconic songs
and revolutionary sound. They reach unparalleled success, but in an unexpected
turn Freddie, surrounded by darker influences, shuns Queen in pursuit of his
solo career.
Having suffered greatly without the collaboration of Queen, Freddie manages
to reunite with his band mates just in time for Live Aid. While bravely facing a
recent AIDS diagnosis, Freddie leads the band in one of the greatest
performances in the history of rock music. Queen cements a legacy that continues
to inspire outsiders, dreamers and music lovers to this day.
Critic Reviews:
- " So forceful and enthusiastic that it's hard not to get caught up in
the momentum and the impact of one of the most enduring groups in rock history.
" – Mike Massie
- " Bohemian Rhapsody dives into the struggles that Freddie Mercury went
through. Whether you are a Queen fan or not, it makes for a great drama (with
awesome music!). " – Tessa Smith
- " More bubblegum pop than gritty heartbreaking drama, Bohemian Rhapsody
may have a few flaws but it is, without a doubt, made for its hardcore fan base.
It's engaging, foot-tapping and one all-around rocking respectful party.
