My 2 cents: I liked it very much


and my friends watching it with me, too. All of them.

Don't listen to the critics. Not every film has to be dark and gritty.
This film is a celebration of Queen and Freddy Mercury -
without leaving the bad stuff out, but not letting dominate it the theme.

I enjoyed this far more than A Star is Born.

I agree completely. I'm 50 and took my 23 year old daughter with me to see this and we both had tears streaming down our faces for the same reason: that would be the closest either of us would ever come to seeing Queen live. As soon as we got home, I pulled up the original Live Aid concert on YouTube and I was amazed at how closely replicated the film was with the movements and interaction with the audience. She is going to see it again tomorrow with a friend and I'm going at least one more time while it's still in theaters.

And, yes, by FAR it was better than A Star if Born.

Indeed. It's a good idea to see this as many times on the big screen while you still can!
