Bohemian Rhapsody (2018) 8/10
I first saw this at Tyneside Cinema and yesterday I got the DVD .and watched it. It traces the life of the rock band Queen and Freddie Mercury from 1970, when Freddie joined up to the Live Aid concert in 1985, with references to the death of Freddie Mercury in the early 1990's from AIDS.
It loses a point or so because of claims that it sanitized the life of Freddie Mercury. It is an interesting film for Queen fans, and shows some of the creative process for recording their iconic and groundbreaking hit, Bohemian Rhapsody. I would have liked to see a recreation of how the video was done, but suppose we can't have everything.
One point of note for the DVD, the extra it has is a recreation of the entire performance Queen did at Live Aid, of which only edited highlights made it to the film shown at the cinemas.
