They do seem to be doing they're best for the most part, but some things really piss me off.

Rami is doing good as Fred (for the most part).

Gwilym is amazing as Bri. And, for the record:That's not an impression of Bri, that's his normal voice.

Joseph Mazzello looks good as John. He looks similar, and his voice in the first clip seemed good.

Ben Hardy as Roger really pisses me off. His hair seems the same throughout the course of the movie. He's not lean like Rog. And his voice isn't even close to Rog. If the other actors are doing impressions, then he should too.

Also, they should have given Ben and Lucy Boynton blue contacts.
Ben is doing an impression of Roger, or at least trying to, his actual voice is very deep, bass level almost.
He's unfortunately, in my opinion, not skilled enough to pull Roger off too well.


Not seen enough of the guy playing John but from what I've seen I think he comes across as the worst.
Johnny Flynn was a better choice for Roger but for some reason it didn't happen.

I just really wished they could have gotten him to do a better voice.
I think it’s essential to get Freddie’s voice characteristics right in order to capture his unique identify as the core focus of the film. The fact that Gwilym nails Brian so spookily is just really great chance. Of course we’d all really like Roger and John to be accurate but I can see why it’s not as essential, as long as their character and intent comes across. If you watch a film of Johnny Cash, or Whitney Houston etc... does the general viewer know that the drummer, bassist, keyboard player, producer etc aren’t really being mimicked voicewise?

I'm from the future.
Are you telling me you built a time machine out of a... Tape recorder?
I guess I'm just biased, since Roger is my favorite.
