Summary

Jim and I had a helluva lot of fun seeing the Queen biopic Bohemian Rhapsody tonight, starring Rami Malek. It's getting mixed reviews, but we're struggling to understand why. Malek does an incredible job embodying the greatest rock band front man of all time, the soundtrack is just literally all of the greatest Queen hits, so what's not to like? Unless the movie tells just truly egregious and hateful lies about Mr. Mercury, which we're not in a position to verify, we can't see much not to like. Learn more about your ad choices.

0:22.4

I liked it a lot actually I wasn't sure what to expect coming in based on the trailer if they were going to cover

I thought, you know, I've been following this for a while, you know, when Sasha Baron Cohen like tapped out,

I've heard that the band was kind of interfering or insisting that Queen take more of a

0:56.8

a front row or more of a role in the movie rather than just being about Freddie. And honestly, if that's true, I don't see anything wrong with that

1:08.0

because I don't, I have in fact just checked this movie.

1:11.0

I'm certainly a fan of Queen's music but I've not you

Metallica when Freddie Mercury died.

1:24.0

So I have no idea if this stuff was all factual.

1:28.0

If it's true, if it's false, if it's somewhere in between,

1:32.0

and I don't even, this might be one of those movies that I don't even care to fact check because I thought it told a it told the story of in my opinion the greatest frontman for a rock band of all time and his

1:47.5

bandmates consisting of a astrophysicist, a dentist, and an electrical engineer that with their
