I f you like rock and roll and a good story I highly recommend Bohemian Rh apsod y. Apparently there are a few things that are not time-line correct however it’s close enough... and is played to dramatic eff ect...

It’s Sunday and I still have the music stuck in my head. Just a fantastic movie. There are a couple of ways to do a movie like this: the “Doors” or “Cash” way with tragic endings or like they way they did Bohem ian Rhapsody. Yes all the bad stuff is in there but it doesn’t dominate the film. In the end I was left with a uplifted feeling and a head full of wonderful music.

Previously on NCIS:

Oppo-pinions? I’m 8/10 going tonight with the kid and wife. My wife loves queen and me and kid are rocken rollers at heart.

I thought it was really good, but I've had "Don't Stop Me Now" stuck in my head all week now. Not bad, just STUCK IN MY HEAD.

I saw it last weekend and I had no real interest in seeing it. I was surprised how much I enjoyed it, apparently the scenes use recordings of him as opposed to actors/what have you.

Your wife loves Queen, yet you don’t refer to her using a “Fat-Bottomed Girls” reference?

Not sure about bringing kids unless they’re well behaved and they understand that cocaine is bad and unsafe sex could lead to STDs/STIs...not the Boxer kind!

That said, very enjoyable movie!

Saw it, it was pretty good. They cover a LOT of ground in the first 3 0 minutes-ish so it feels rushed for that portion, lots of tropes used in place of actual character development. Otherwise an excellent film.

The kid is 13 so there may be some awkward moments but he is 13...

Should be okay with some guidance after the movie. Also, please make sure they understand calling someone of middle-eastern decent a “ Paki” is rude and racist.

I’ve seen it... I think it was great.  I watched with my teen kids who also like Queen.  My kids enjoyed it too.

I think they’ll actually learn that from the movie...

They will but it’s good to have parental guidance just in case!

It was a good movie. My teen daughter said it is now her favorite movie. My son was less outspoken about it, but I know he enjoyed it. My wife and I made sure we discussed it with the kids. There’s a lot to talk about.

Yeah I really don’t have any problem with the gay thing. My kids have seen same sex people as couples and kissing before. Drugs and STDs are pretty standard fair too.

I thought they neutered the rest of the band, as if they sat around most of the time placating him...I can’t imagine they were total doormats. It starts choppy jumping the timeline quickly in the beginning, I’m guessing that’s done to give more energy to the mi ddle/end of Queen.

I enjoyed it, but I don’t think it was any better than a bubblegum pop song as we know this could have been much more interesting watch.

I didn’t like it. Rami was great in it, but the story wasn’t well- told, in my opinion.

I felt like t hey glossed over so much of the struggle and story, it almost feels like a highlight reel.

There’s no plot. There’s a very shallow dive into Freddy’s character and his motivations.

I loved the movie, but I did roll my eyes at the Mike Myers cameo. I could have dea lt with just the Wayne’s World reference, but in that make up he looked like a only slightly over weight Fat Bastard.
