    I’m sure at the very least it’ll be entertaining and Ackie will become a star after this.

      Bohemian Rhapsody was pretty solid and didn't have any trouble with showing the gritty side of Mercury, I wouldn't call it generic. I'm curious if this will delve into Houston's darker days as well. They did in Rhapsody and even showed that they were going to do so in the trailer, but those hints of the darker days are lacking in this trailer.

        Probably just the nature of the song of choice being so upbeat. According to a test-screening reaction it does get into at least some of the dark parts.

    As soon as I saw it was from the writer of Bohemian Rhapsody, I lost a good deal of interest.
