I think I’ll pass. Heard they emphasized more of the homo stuff leading to AIDS gay stuff and not really the music. Plus National “Never Trump” Review..

Gross.

To be fair, the movie, intentionally or otherwise (as some staff such as Rami Malek, Freddie Mercury’s actor, indicated that such was the result of time constraints and not part of their vision) actually depicts homosexuality in a very negative light, since it made clear Freddie Mercury’s homosexuality was largely responsible for his falling out with Queen, his girlfriend, and also adopting some rather negative behavior, to say little about it resulting in his death via AIDs. Plus, Paul Prenter, the only other major character to adopt the lifestyle, was depicted in a very negative manner (so negative, in fact, that he’s the closest the film has to a villain), being largely responsible for Mercury’s downfall besides Mercury himself, shifts blame onto others for his actions, used Mercury for his own gratification, and hid various details from him, such as the Live Aid concert plans and Mary Austin calling him. In one way, the movie even implies that he should have stuck with Mary Austin rather than embrace homosexuality. I can tell you this much, it CERTAINLY is better viewing than When We Rise on ABC or Supergirl on the CW.
