Bohemian Rhapsody (2018)
“Easy come, easy go, will you let me go?”
These lyrics could be attributed to Rami Malek’s performance as Freddie Mercury in Bohemian Rhapsody. He does do a rather fantastic job, but the filmmakers seem to be holding so much more back that he could use (basically, they are telling him “we won’t let you go”).
Malek is easily the best thing about the film. I feel the negatives of the film (and there are a more than a few) may actually hold him back from an Oscar nomination (though I could see him getting a nod for a Golden Globe).
