If the critics unite against a film because they hate being out of line with each other a good rule of thumb is that it will be a blockbuster as this one will be if it is not already. Hugely enjoyable story of the band that reformed and slayed Live Aid. Several obvious pieces of artistic licence about which a few aficionados and critics who’ve been through the cuttings might carp. Most of this films audience won’t have heard Queen play live. But they will love the story. Yes critics it’s a story sensitively told and brilliantly acted. One of the few films I can’t wait to see again.
