    Rami Malek did Freddie Mercury proud. He’s phenomenal in the movie. And I enjoyed the movie very much. And I’m so glad Brian May and Roger Taylor supported him and everyone involved in the movie.

    I’m so impressed by Rami as an actor and as a human. He really honored Freddie with the effort he put into this performance. He really became Freddie. Also, Anita and Freddie had a very close friendship. If she cried at Rami’s performance, that says a lot. Bravo.

      TheClassica91 Classic Anita crying was unfortunately not true. She laughed at rami but later apologised, he said so at an interview he had. I'm guessing jimmy fallon. I'm not saying Rami didn't do a great job though I cried like a baby both times I've gone and seen the movie so far 😂🤧

    What blew me away about the accuracy of the Live Aid recreation for the movie we how Malek moved so perfectly. It wasn't just him recreating the moves beat by beat, but doing them with such natural movement that it looked completely organic and not at all like a rehearsed routine. The movie itself was good, and the men playing the bandmates were spot-on, but that Live Aid recreation is movie-making, history-making perfection. It is just as memorable as the real Queen Live Aid performance! Truly it is! I hope the DVD has the full set in the bonus features or director's cut.

      @mgordon1100 Před 5 lety +9

      What was so impressive to me, was that Freddie wasn't a dancer. He didn't dance, he just let his body move the way it felt like moving. Recreating that was very impressive.

    • @delriogw
      @delriogw Před 5 lety +3

      @@MM-dq2pi That was a different section of the song, a different chorus.
      For some reason, in the edit, they skipped the first chorus and showed him singing the second. And if you can find a side by side vid (they get taken down for copyright), you can see that that is indeed what Freddie did for that chorus of the song.

    • @MM-dq2pi
      @MM-dq2pi Před 5 lety

      Yes, thankyou. I haven't been able to watch the film yet, but the side by side that went viral, which I saw, made the error of using the wrong section in that song.
      I was thinking that it was something so obvious so I am glad it wasn't an error.

    John blunt is the perfect freddie mercury in appearance. But this man's performance is phenomenal he really put an effort in becoming freddie.. he may not look like freddie in his whole appearance in the movie..but freddie's physical aspects, actions and passion in music was delivered by this man almost perfectly . for me he nailed it..10/10.. screw the critics.. the movie is great

    • @Sea_witch_
      @Sea_witch_ Před 5 lety +8

      Johnny Blunt captures the "manliness" Freddie had, the strong posture he showed on stage, as a stage man. Rami, personally I think, captured the tender side of Freddie's soul, that spark that moved him towards being a genius on and off stage, a side not too many people cared enough to look for in Freddie ♡

    a lot of times the actors get most of the credits or praise for their performance, but it's 99% of the time a combination of the actor's talents AND the crew's as well. It's refreshing to see this video shed a light on the people who helped shaped the film behind the scenes. It was truly an iconic movie shedding light on the life of arguably the biggest icon of the 20th century.

      Anish Pol I’ve seen Queen in concert many times and Rami did an amazing job. This whole movie was cast perfectly. Yes there are Hollywood liberties taken and not everything is factual , however it was a wonderful tribute to Freddie especially in Rami’s portrayal. I could see the turmoil Freddie felt and as someone who lost a loved one to AIDS I was deeply moved. I’m so sad you as a fan (I assume) cannot see that.
