That one scene doesn’t fix the movies many other flaws, your argument is like saying Bonfire of the Vanities is a great movie because it has that really good opening tracking shot.

Yeah dipshit except the Queen movie has a 90% positive review by all reviewers and the vanity of the bonfire has 15%. Sorry you kids don't know a good music movie. But keep the downvotes coming lol

My dude, where are you getting 90% from? Critics were very lukewarm about this movie.

All musician biopics are the same movie. As engaging as listening to a greatest hits album by the artist. Ever since Walk Hard parodied the genre so excellently I honestly have a hard time taking them seriously. For example the Live Aid scene serving as a framing device in Bohemian Rhapsody felt way too much like “Dewey Cox gotta think about his whole life before he play a show”

Ok so the Elton John biopic... You're going to categorize that in the same way?
/Much superior to the queen movie in almost every way.
/If you say that's an inaccurate movie I believe Sir Elton John would disagree.
/Walk Hard is one of the best comedies ever. (Glad we have common ground there)
