Bit too cheesy, musical not biography. (0 more)
Exceptional fun
After seeing Bohemian Rhapsody only a few months ago, I had quite high hopes for the film seeing as it was directed by the same director who (unofficially) took over for the director of Rhapsody and boy did the film deliver. A fun filled film with loads of toe tapping music and an intriguing story to go along with it.

Fairly cheesy in parts but it's to be expected when it's a film about Elton John. Also it felt more of a musical than bohemian Rhapsody which took me put of the film and made it feel almost fake at times.

Perfect for the West End or Broadway but a fun film nonetheless.

The film, for whatever reason, refuses to take risks, changing the story of Freddie Mercury to be more linear and predictable, and for a film about Queen, a band that built itself on taking risks, that was the wrong decision.

Fighting with My Family (2019)
Fighting with My Family (2019)
2019 | Biography, Comedy, Drama
This film reminded me a lot of Bohemian Rhapsody with less distractive baggage. Fighting With My Family is the success story of an outsider who reached the pinnacle of their field. One of the producers who appears in the film has a very positive role. A lot of the story is told with dramatic cliche, but this one works.

Bohemian Rhapsody (2018) is a musical trooping of the colour in recognition of the majesty of Queen. #Review
You may be expecting a story of the notorious Singer whose controversial behaviour and alleged sexual predilections and hedonistic bacchanalia have become the stuff of rumour and innuendo legend, but we’re not here to talk about the Director, we’re here to find out what the movie is like...

Rocketman was good. Wasn't what I was expecting, but not in a bad way. If you're expecting a Bohemian Rhapsody type of movie, you should know it's not. It was shot more in the style of Across the Universe, which is one of my favorite musical movies. They did a great job of incorporating his songs to associate to different parts of his life and helping in telling his story. If you're a fan of Elton John and musicals, then I think you'll enjoy it.

Fantastic performances across the board and a story that doesn't sugarcoat the early career of Elton John (0 more)
It takes a small while to get used to the weirdness of it all. (0 more)
Succeeds where Bohemian Rhapsody kinda felt short with, this is a fantastic, no holds bar film that perfectly depicts the story of Elton John's early career and his many struggles. The use of John's songs is expertly used to help progress the story and those sequences help make this a feast for the eyes. Taron Egerton shines as Elton.

So, for the last few months, I haven't even been calling this film by it's proper title, I've just been calling it Rami's movie (he went to my Alma Mater).
I thought Rami did an amazing job. The music of Queen is, of course, great, so no complaints there. The recreation of Live Aid was really amazing. I did enjoy Mike Meyer's having a role, where he made a comment that no one would ever head bang to Bohemian Rhapsody. I thought it was well-paced and I was never bored during it.

"I was a teenager when I got into Queen – Bohemian Rhapsody was everywhere after it was on Wayne’s World. There’s so much joy in their music, a real not-giving-a shit-ness. It’s great to see them in this documentary being these normal, geeky people. You see all the mundanity that goes on behind the scenes of Freddie’s showmanship on stage, plus there’s the unexpectedness of hearing his gentle English accent. Then you hear him live, and see the sweat in his moustache, and it’s spine-tingling."
