Excellent documentary on the superb and influential rock group Queen. Combines standard live footage and current interviews with rare archival live footage and interviews. Very well researched.

Quite emotional too, towards the end.

I don't give 10's easily.

I'm not a mega Queen fan (but I like their early stuff)

And I'm not gay.

This is quite simply a spectacular documentary with tons of insight.

Queen put out some poor filler songs in their time, but this great doco shows how ultimately successful and persistent they were. Their big hits were stupendously good. Very original, with slick playing and impeccable vocal harmonies. They weren't afraid to try new genres, such as a cartoon soundtrack (Flash Gordon),to rockabilly, funk, lovely ballads, pop and hard rock. Guitarist Brian May and drummer Roger Taylor are both excellent storytellers. One of the nicest things is that all four band members wrote the songs. The bassist John Deacon wrote some of their killer melodies and riffs (Another One Bites the Dust, Under Pressure) and guitarist Brian May wrote some of the smash hits such as We Will Rock You. I gained new respect for Roger Taylor, who not only is an excellent drummer (especially live) and songwriter, but was a key singer on most of their songs. And of course the doco is a wonderful tribute to the late Freddie Mercury. His charisma, his great singing, but also his piano playing. He claimed he wasn't much of a pianist, but his piano playing is among the most beautiful passages of the band's work. My favourite scene is a simple instrumental version of We Are The Champions in the studio. It shows how utterly in tune the band were with each other.
