its not just the freddie show after all and the other guys get their due. seems like the hemming and hawing about freddie and his love life is the major gripe in the reviews. otherwise a standard biopic

So much so that I got a little bored in the middle. Rami Malek was great, but they should have made him wear brown contacts. Freddie's eyes were dark brown. Rami's are rather light, kind of a gray green. It's really obvious in close ups. But overall I enjoyed it and I did get a little misty during the Live Aid performance.
