Good but not Great!!

No one can replace Freddie and it's a good thing that queen never tried to. It's two great stories in itself merged into one. You could easily have a film of life after Freddie as well as a story of just Adam Lambert. To see a lot of behind the scenes information was pretty wonderful to see. There's a lot that you will find out from Adam Lambert and queen. A lot of this can be said to be influenced by success of the movie Bohemian Rhapsody and you can tell that this piggy backs on that success. Good overall but it felt like it dragged on a bit more in one area when there was so much more that it could have covered.

Started strong... finished boring

Seeing how the band recovered and dealt with Freddie's passing but after they found Adam it seemed like it started to get repetitive with the cheerleading about how incredible the new lineup is. Could have ended about 20-30 min earlier. Oh well, probably worth a watch if you really love queen.

Good, but not great!

I know that this film paints a portrait of the Queen and Adam Lambert association. But when you know the conflicting reactions within the group, before the death of Mercury, there is too much marshmallow in May's words!

dream team

The planets aligned to bring Adam Lambert and Dr Brian May and Roger Taylor together. These three men create the most unbelievable shows with Queen's extensive catalog of music, bringing the audience into their playful and joyous performances. If you have the chance to go you must. These are ALL LIVE shows, no click-track, no playback, everything you see and hear is LIVE.

Phenomenal Collaboration

The planets aligned when Adam sang with Queen at the American Idol finale. It is truly a collaboration that was meant to be. Nine years later and they are still rocking the world together. Adam brings his own brand of talent, showmanship, and charisma. He is not an imitator. Brian May and Roger Taylor have said many times they would not be touring if it wasn't for Adam. I've seen them many times in both NY and LA. Hoping they will tour the US again. I wouldn't miss it for the world!
