I wasn't surprised that Rami won the award for the main role. I remember that when the first trailer appeared, immediately on You Tube were comments that Rami will win Oscar. And when I heard that Queen + Adam Lambert perform on ceremony I knew he will win Oscar.
Everything has become predictable.

Meh, not impressed with the PDA and not thanking Freddie. I'm glad this movie madness is over.

Malek was a poor Freddie, couldn't nail his voice, and the entire script was utter drivel. But good for him, seems like a nice bloke.

PMA: seriously what was that speaking voice? Freddie didn't sound brain damaged

I think Rami speaks beautifully. English is his second language, and now that he is flying around the world, he will probably be picking up other languages as well.
Freddie spoke quickly, often finishing half sentences with “you know”. An actor has to articulate. Not only that, but the audience has to be able to take in what is being said. If an actor delivered lines too quickly, like a person giving the weather forecast, for example, he or she might be stopped by the director and asked to slow down. Ideas and lines have to have the time to sink in.
Also, that is just Rami’s style. He is very intelligent. I’m dissapointed in the intellectual level of this forum. On average, it seems below average.

Yes absolutely well deserved The film is simply brilliant. I really thought I would hate it but I let go of the inaccuracies and was crying at the end. I was lucky I was in that crowd at Live Aid I remember it like yesterday and the film captures it perfectly. I guess you had to be there.
A lot on here obviously were not as lucky as those of us who saw Queen in the 70's & 80's I can honestly say I'm yet to see a live video that comes close to being there in the presence of genius I get that some will bemoan the timeline is wrong blah blah its a just a fucking movie people get so excited about these things...…..
Anyway just wanted to say How Fucking Fantastic it is 40 odd years after I left School my favourite band from those days are still rocking the world long live QUEEN....

English is Rami's first language. He was born and raised in the United States.

Yes, Rami is from the valley. 10 min drive from me.
Wonderful to attribute every dissenter to "a lower intellectual level" because it disagrees with your premise.
That's some air o gant bullsheeeet.
His voice IN THE FILM is drawly, it's labored and far too leveled to match the speed and nasal sometimes spirited and high pitched phrasing Freddie would do in excitement.
It's just a droning almost mawkish "old man" voice. I'm just glad someone finally said it

Rami was born in the United States, but his sister was born in Egypt, and as recent immigrants, his parents spoke Arabic in the home. Rami didn’t learn English until later in his childhood.
So, my point was well made.

No mate. No, no , no. That is just your opinion. Whilst the original Line Up is no more, Queen are still in existance whether you like it or not.

Far from Queen. Karaoke Queen meets Vegas Broadway schmaltz maybe
