From director Bryan Singer, Bohemian Rhapsody is a 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 bandmates 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.

With Rami Malek, Lucy Boynton, Gwilym Lee, Ben Hardy, Joseph Mazzello, Aidan Gillen, Tom Hollander, Allen Leach and Mike Myers. All of them part of a well structured cast; make the film full of 134 minutes good, Bohemian Rhapsody. It’s very good in many sequence scenes especially when suggest loneliness, drugs, sex, homosexuality without going overboard. Definitely this goes beyond a dramatic account of the life and times of Freddie Mercury and Queen. Rami Malek made his best performance in this role and music is really good as the band used to be. A well handled film which is worth it to see.
