RE: How to delight, when its not delighted - ”Bohemian Rhapsody".
I went to see this film with my father who made me grow up with music. The first thing he said when the movie started, was: If you had told me it wasn’t a documentary I might not have gone to see it at all. I might walk out half way...
He decided to stay and - even though he hardly watches movies - he enjoyed it quite a lot, mainly because of the music. I myself found the fake teeth somewhat cringeworthy and there were many scenes that where hard to stomach but - in the end - the music compensated it all for me and - leaving the cinema and hearing my dad say he liked the film ( although he would have liked to hear even more songs ) it left me a good feeling.
I totally understand where you’re coming from but I don’t feel this movie failed.
Awesome write up though! :>)
I totally agree with you that music makes this movie much better. Movie is entertainment so everyone can have different point of view, I just won't to write my personal thoughts about it, because as a picture nominated to the Best Film in Oscar Award it should be something more than only music.
I get your point and did not know it was nominated for best movie. To be honest, I have known for a long time that movies nominated for oscars are not necessarily the best movies. It’s all a power game, played by Hollywood. That’s one of the reasons why I often prefer art house and indie films over mainstream cinema

In this I agree with you I prefer independent movie as well. But I try to watch all the nominated movies for the Golden Glob and Oscars. Sometimes I watched them years after they were nominated but I like to know them.

I see. Since last year, I live far from
a cinema and I don’t download movies but I am subscribed to MUBI ( for alternative movies ) and sometimes use Netflix, so I watch mainstream movies every now and then. I don’t feel like I need to see all the price winners but I understand it if others want to.
