Movie runtime: 134 minutes

Genre: Biography

Plot Summary: Movie is a biography of Queen band leads singer Freddie Mercury.

Script Analysis(story, Screenplay, Dialogues): Movie starts with the story of Freddie Mercury(Rami Malek) as a student and meet Brian Bay (Gwilym Lee) and Roger Taylor (Ben Hardy) in a club and join their Band. Showcasing the creative aspect of making the songs. The movie focuses more on his love life and situations happening because of them. His family life is shown to be limited in the movie. More focus more on his love life than band friendship. The screenplay is good. I wish they could have shown more of the creative process of making the songs. As scenes regarding the making of the songs are brilliant. Dialogues are very good. They are funny and witty and add a flavour to the scenes. Some scenes could have been cut off a little and could have added move scenes regarding the band member relationship. 

Star Performances: Rumi Malek Gave the best performance of his career. He is outstanding. Sometimes it feels you are watching real Freddie Mercury on the silver scene. He is apt in replicating the body language especially during the live performance scenes of the band.

Allen Leech, as Freddie personal manager is outstanding. He is the second character after Freddie in the movie you look forward to what he is up to next. Gwilym Lee and Ben Hardy were very good in their performances. Joseph Mazzello, Lucy Boynton,  Tom Hollander, Aidan Gillen were good on their respective roles.

Technical Aspect(direction, Background Scores, Music): This movie is directed by Bryan Singer. The movie is well directed. Biographies are difficult to handle. However, the Director has tried to show all aspects of Freddie life in just 2 hours. He has done a commendable job. The background score is good. Music is the soul of the movie. Most of the Queen song is used in the background or as their performances during the tour or recording. It feels like one is watching a live Freddie concert. Songs like we will rock you and Bohemian Rhapsody are used brilliantly. Every time You will Hymn the songs along with the movie.
