    TIL Bohemian Rhapsody was formally the highest grossing biopic. I kind of liked the movie but I know a lot of people who obsessed over Freddie Mercury and they all swear the movie is wretched

        I found it terrible but I guess I wanted a Freddie biopic and it was a Queen biopic…I think it was way too sanitized and shallow. They recreated the looks, the clothes, the music and performances but I feel like nothing new or insightful was revealed. There was no emotional intimacy like Walk the Line or Rocketman.

      I’m super upset Sacha Baron Cohen isn’t apart of it. The band came out and he said he wasn’t that type of actor that could do it or something. Sacha said it’s because they were cleaning up the bio pic too much. Can’t argue with the band on profits though.

      I just thought a lot of lies were unnecessary. The director said it’s just to tighten up the film, but I think a better director could do justice to both.
