Movie Reviews
Reviews:
"Malek winds up looking, and inhabiting, the part to a remarkable degree. Watching BOHEMIAN RHAPSODY, we always feel like we’re seeing Freddie Mercury standing right in front of us." - 10/23/2018 Variety
"[I]t runs through the greatest hits with a lot of energy....Malek certainly gives it his all as Mercury, affecting a toothy English accent and lip-syncing with sweaty abandon..." - 10/23/2018 A.V. Club
"The experiments in the studio are joyous, the concerts properly loud, and John Ottman's editing connects them fluidly..." - 10/23/2018 Hollywood Reporter
3 stars out of 5 -- "[W]hen the singer plays 'Love of My Life' on the piano to show his love, the feeling comes through as genuine due to the raw emotion Malek and Boynton pour into their roles." - 10/30/2018 Rolling Stone
3 stars out of 5 -- "The film has a secret weapon: Rami Malek. As Mercury he is spectacular." - 10/23/2018 Empire
3 stars out of 5 -- "What the film does -- and does well -- is pay tribute to the singer’s exuberant stage presence. It’s a stupendous performance by Rami Malek, the MR. ROBOT star capturing Freddie’s harlequin-suited swagger with Oscar-worthy skill." - 10/26/2018 Total Film
