    I hardly watched this but wanted to leave a low rating to cast my vote for what I want Netflix to spend our money on: not this.

    ★★★★

    I really liked this and admire the courage it took to make it. The first half was riveting.

    I had a couple problems with it. Sana is supposed to be a young teenager but appears to be a 30-something woman which makes some plot points feel odd (I understand that they probably didn't want to endanger an actual child). And the final act escalates in a way that doesn't really make sense except for to get across the message of the movie. Like, I understand the point, but it didn't really make sense for the characters.

    Considering how unboring Queen and Freddie Mercury were, this movie was really boring and basic.

    Watching this I seesawed between feeling horrified and feeling bored. The performances are good though.
