Bohemian Rhapsody is an enthralling celebration of Queen, their music, and their extraordinary lead singer Freddie Mercury, who defied stereotypes and convention to become one of history’s most beloved entertainers.

“A biopic that favors sensory experience over exposition. It understands what pure, electrifying fun rock ‘n’ roll can be.”
— Sheri Linden, Hollywood Reporter
“Malek does an impressive job of re-creating Mercury’s moves onstage, but the core of the performance is Malek’s intensely thoughtful, insight-rich channelling of Mercury’s hurt, his alienation and isolation even at the height of his fame.”
— Richard Brody, The New Yorker
