Sadly, this is where the pros of “Bohemian Rhapsody” come to an end. The finale leaves the audience feeling electrified.

Mercury’s struggle with self-destruction and the consequences of his decisions are on full display. The third act feels focused and powerful. The last 30 minutes of “Bohemian Rhapsody” are truly special. It’s highly likely we will see Malek talked about when Academy Awards season comes around. Mercury was a flamboyant and reckless character searching for purpose and love, which Malek’s performance shows. For Rami Malek’s first major shift from TV to film, he showcases his range, as well as his dedication to character.

He steals the spotlight away from the rest of the movie and perfectly embodies the rock legend. What truly works in “Bohemian Rhapsody” is the powerful performance of Rami Malek. Queen’s music is also front and center throughout the film. “Bohemian Rhapsody” follows Mercury and the story of Queen, the band’s rise to fame and Mercury’s ultimate self-destruction.
The film was mostly directed by Bryan Singer, but Singer was fired for his conduct on and off set and was replaced by Dexter Fletcher halfway through (who only got a producer credit). “Bohemian Rhapsody” stars Rami Malek as Freddie Mercury and Lucy Boynton as Mary Austin, the love of Mercury’s life. The problem with “Bohemian Rhapsody” is it doesn’t know whether it wants to tell his story or the story of the band. It’s even crazier to think how it took this long to make a biopic about its lead singer and arguably the greatest frontman in rock and roll history: Freddie Mercury. It’s crazy to think how influential the band Queen has been on pop culture.
