    ★★★

    Queer feels like it showed up to the cultural conversation about 20 years too late. While the performances are solid, the sets are stunning, and the music is an absolute delight, the film itself struggles to feel relevant in a world that has long moved forward. —-It feels more like a nostalgic tribute than a necessary addition.
