God will not be mocked.
Wrong
Actually, I was surprised at how the film handled Mercury’s sexuality. It was pretty much portrayed as his downfall and the beginning and root of all things bad for him, obviously including his death. His gay lover/manager was the villain of the movie, and the gay lifestyle was portrayed as seedy, dark and overly promiscuous. Not the portrayal I expected at all. That was my take anyway. Good flick about a great frontman and band.
America has been mocking God for a long time, not least since Roe v Wade...
If it’s of any consolation, the film didn’t depict homosexuality as being good at all (actually, if anything, it depicted Freddy Mercury’s adoption of the lifestyle as the start of his problems, including alienating his friends and loved ones, adopting various negative personality traits, ruining his relationship with his girlfriend, etc., etc., and that’s not even getting into how it ultimately killed him via AIDs. In fact, the only other major gay character in the film, Paul Prenter, was the closest the film had to the main villain, considering he used Freddy for his own gratification, basically was a weasel who sold out his friends for the mistakes he made, and was the person second-most responsible for Freddy’s downfall, with Freddy himself obviously being the most responsible for that.). Granted, Ravi Malek implied that this was more due to time constraints rather than intentional, but hey, even accidents lead to much better results sometimes, and this is one of those even better accidents if you ask me. If anything, God WOULD approve of this movie precisely BECAUSE it effectively condemned homosexuality and depicted it as not being good at all.
