You will not see a more perfect and imperfect rock and roll biopic than Bohemian Rhapsody, which does many things extremely well, other things sort of average, and one thing flawlessly: capturing the immense charisma and panache of Queen singer Freddie Mercury. Jamie Foxx’s full-body inhabitation of Ray Charles just got some competition at the top.
Bohemian Rhapsody may not totally rock you, but Rami Malek channels the thrilling, show-stopping charisma of the late Queen super singer, ensuring this inappropriately timid biopic is as entertaining as it can possibly be.

Comentario película “Bohemian Rhapsody”
Es una película británica, dirigida por Bryan Singer estrenada en el año 2018 con una duración de 134 minutos, protagonizada por Rami Malek de genero dramático, nominada a 5 premios de la Academia incluyendo Mejor Película. En la película se relata el transcurso del grupo musical Queen y relata la vida de Freddy Mercury, el cual era muy estrafalario y rompía con los estereotipos propuestos por la sociedad de ese entonces para convertirse en uno de los cantantes mas famosos del mundo. La película nos muestra el notorio avance que tuvo el grupo musical por el éxito de sus canciones ya que no eran muy comunes y así mismo su gran participación en el Live Aid en la que el grupo musical Queen fue participe, liderado por Freddy el cual estaba pasando por enfermedad que amenazaba su vida. Es una película realmente increíble que hasta hoy en día sigue inspirando a la gente y amantes del tipo de música que ellos producían. Se resalta cada detalle importante de la vida del protagonista y así mismo las canciones más icónicas que tuvieron como “We Will Rock You”, “Bohemian Rhapsody”, “I want to Break Free”, entre otras, acercando al espectador un poco más a la vida y el progreso del cantante. Desde el inicio nos engancha en una trama que es imposible dejar de ver pues esta tiene un parecido impresionante a lo que fue Queen y Freddy Mercury en la realidad que es lo que se busca en una película de este estilo. En concreto, es una película muy intensa y para nada tradicional, es muy recomendada para aquellos amantes de este grupo musical y cada momento importante que hayan pasado, incluyendo la producción de sus canciones ya que para nadie es un secreto que rompen muchas barreras puestas en la industria musical. Merece una calificación de 10 en una escala de 0 a 10.

Giving it a first watch in 2021, made me realize one major thing. I wished I saw it in theaters! This movie was one of the best movies I've gotten to watch in a long while. The acting, cinematography, lines, body language, etc were all fantastic. The songs were as incredible as always! The only reason I can see people bashing it or giving it a low rating, is because "Does it accurately represent the events the movie is based on?". Even if this movie came halfway close, the movie as a whole was phenomenal!

As an inducement to dig into the Queen back catalog, Bohemian Rhapsody is an unqualified success. But when it tries to be a genuine biopic of a groundbreaking band and its singular lead singer, it’s more like a little silhouette-o of a man.
There are some individual moments and elements to like here, but taken as a whole, Bohemian Rhapsody is mostly a flatline with occasional blips of life here and there—and not nearly enough to bring the whole body back from the dead.
This charitable act of resuscitation for the benefit of Mercury’s admirers is something that the film as a whole ultimately fails to accomplish, as Bohemian Rhapsody mistakenly believes that simply trudging through a workmanlike overview of the Queen frontman’s life will allow it to arrive at something approaching intimacy.
Despite its intentions to get close to Mercury, Bohemian Rhapsody is as intimate as a sold-out stadium show, with none of the accompanying power.
Bohemian Rhapsody is another lame music biopic, and its failures ultimately lie in the poor creative choices, the gutless approaches to potentially explosive events in the life of this band. We’re not buying this new album. There’s no new material to be found in Bohemian Rhapsody.
A great movie for Queen fans with an awesome soundtrack and an incredible Rami Malek. I must point out that it is a movie about Queen and not a biography of Freddie Mercury which is not a criticism (Some expected this and found the movie a bit disappointing because of this). Queen is and was more than Freddie Mercury even when he is the driving factor, a legend and probably the greatest entertainer of his age especially on stage. He is however the most prominent character in the movie (Anything else would be surprising). Also it leaves out some things which is also O.K. because it is an entertainment movie not a documentary. The movie tells the story of Queen from the founding until the legendary Live Aid performance. Sidenote: They added the real Live Aid performance under extras. I recommend to watch it as it is a legendary performance that is always on the top list of all time live performances and entered music history. Back to the movie. It shows the struggles, up and downs and success with its price. There is always some attrition in successful bands no matter the genre, home country or composition. All are just humans with flaws and being penned up on long tours, composing sessions and public relation events has a toll. It is however also not a deconstruction of Queen or its members. It was so great how the songs were integrated with their creation stories like “Bohemian Rhapsody”, “We will Rock you” and “Another one bites the dust”. The “Who wants to live forever” scene is heartbreaking. The movie Live Aid performance is just awesome and I praise the recreation. Anyone who is not touched by this is already dead on the inside. Of cause it tells about Freddie’s illness and sexual orientation. The later is not much shown because many countries are **** up to death penalty. Even his home country of Zanzibar which has a museum devoted to him is intolerant. Lets go to the actors: Rami Malek won the Oscar for his performance and rightfully so. He became Freddie Mercury for his role and made a stellar performance. Gwilym Lee is a fantastic Brian May as are Ben Hardy as Roger Taylor and Joe Mazzello as John Deacon. Like in real live they are a bit outshined by Freddie or better said Rami Malek. They still deliver a great performance and I will praise them all. For the rest I will praise Lucy Boyton as Mary Austin, Aidan Gillen as John Reid and Allen Leech as Paul Prenter. A really good to great overall performance. The main star is of cause the music and they made full use of Queens greatest hits. One of the best soundtrack in movie history and I would have bought it if I did not already own all songs. What I should also praise is the style and look of the movie. Everything looks believable and authentic. From small details to the big sets and costumes. Overall this is a phenomenal experience for Queen fans and even non fans. They made so much timeless classics. It was enjoyable from beginning to end but I will give a fan boy warning for myself to be fair.

Ez volt a film ami az egész életrajz mániát elindította. A Bohém Rapszódia viszont minden csak nem életrajzi film. Rengeteg ferdítés, és kibővítés van benne. Sokszor zavarnak bele értelmetlenül az idővonalba, vagy változtatnak meg történéseket. Ezekkel a változtatásokkal a baj az, hogy "klisékkel" lettek helyettesítve (a busz eladása, a banda feloszlása stb..). Amellett, hogy sokszor konkrétan hazudik a film, más okból sem működik életrajzként. A film ugyanis semmit nem beszél mondjuk a zenék születéséről, nem mutatják mi is ihlette főszereplőinket egyes zenék megírására, Freddien kívül senkivel nem foglalkozunk. A film főként Freddie életére fókuszál ami szintén nem tökéletes. Ugyanis előszeretettel okolja mindenért Freddiet, a banda többi tagja pedig szentként van beállítva, ami teljes értelmet nyer, amikor megtudjuk, hogy a film producerei a még élő Queen tagok (tudomásom szerint). Ők mindig mindent jól csinálnak, ők sosem hibáznak, Freddie viszont egy önző egoista ám de tehetséges és magányos ember. Mindezek ellenére a film látványos, és hihetetlenűl szórakoztató. Megidézi a Queen hangulatot. Régen volt amikor annyira élveztem egy filmet, hogy mindenbe belefeletkeztem. 6/10

*singing* I want to ride my **** of the theater.
It's been three years since I watched this movie, and in the intervening time I've never even considered listening to a Queen song. I will rhapsodize no longer.

A special film about the life of a single Freddie Mercury band member. The film has a mounting concern. Interrupted between abysmal slowness and minimum acceleration for a 20 minute end in concert. Problem 20 minutes to fill the gap is long and what reason to push the director to leave this part as it for a "Biopic". The biopic is a story of a man who tells and counts a life. A concert is another style. The music is nothing transcendent we know the music queen or at least if we are interested we can listen. Next to the scenario started very quickly, the meeting between the members of the group is looped in 15min, the rise 15 minutes, the fall 1:00 approximately and 20min of concert. The result is a sad movie that you do not want to see again.
Un film particulier sur la vie d'un seul membre du groupe Freddie Mercury. Le film possède un souci de montage. Entrecoupé entre lenteur abyssale et accélération minimum pour une fin de 20 min en concert. Problème 20 minutes pour combler du vide c'est long et quelle raison à pousser le réalisateur à laisser cette partie telle qu'elle pour un "Biopic". Le biopic est une histoire d'homme qui raconte et compte une vie. Un concert c'est un autre style. La musique n'a rien de transcendant on connaît la musique de queen ou au moins si ça nous intéresse on peut les écouter. À côté le scénario démarré très rapidement, la rencontre entre les membres du groupe est bouclée en 15min, l'élévation 15 minutes, la chute 1h00 environ et 20min de concert. Le résultat est un film triste que vous ne voulez pas revoir.
