Last night I saw this movie. I have to say, I am not a Queen fan per say but I do like a lot of their music and still wanted to see the movie.
I already knew that the timeline of the way things happened were out of order and that this movie was pretty watered down on Freddy's life. Overall, I still think it was a great movie and looking forward to getting it on DVD.
I would have like to seen how he learned to play the piano, how they came to making the song for the 'Highlander' TV show and more of his personal life.
I loved the songs although there were a few songs that I never heard of. I think the guy who played Freddy did a pretty good job. I was heartbreaking at times especially when he found out he got aids. For me, that hit home since I know someone who died from it.
Even if this movie was watered down, I got a glimpse of who Freddy was. He was a very interesting guy. Even though he had his struggles, he still managed to go for what he wanted and got his life together in the end. So sad that he died especially so young. He was a year younger than I am now, wow.
Anyways, I think it is a good movie and if a fan go out aside the messed up timeline and that it was watered down, I think this movie can be really enjoyed.
