Not surprisingly Cohen has been type-cast as a funny, often ribald, buffoon. But he also is a clever fellow who I think intended to do a realistic portrayal of Mercury (with some humor of course) which I believe he was fully capable of doing.

Stallone, Carrey, and several other “light” or otherwise-non-serious actors have been able to step out of that mould and do some heavy drama from time to time. No reason Cohen couldn’t be counted among them.

As was the entire cast.

Cohen is obnoxious but he would have been perfect for the part.

I think Cohen could be real good as a serious actor if he wanted to be. I really liked him in “Hugo”.
