A coffee-table kind of book, meant as a companion piece to the movie.

What I love about this is that it makes a great collection piece for dedicated Queen fans, and also serves as an introduction to Queen for newer fans. So whether you've seen every Queen documentary or know very little about the band, you'll probably enjoy this. It also gives short career summaries of the cast.

This book also gives more (accurate) information of the band and Freddie Mercury, but if you're well-versed in your Queen knowledge don't expect to gain anything new here. For me, that wasn't a drawback. I enjoy consuming any information on Queen no matter how many times I've heard it.

What you will learn: How much work and care was put into the making of this film! There's info on the wardrobe, hair, make up, sets - everything! You could tell that everyone working on this film recognized the weight of carrying such a huge responsibility. And they all did their best, and I believe it paid off.

All the pictures were absolutely stunning! Some pictures were quite small but no detail was left out and you could see everything! And I loved the two-page spreads as well.

Even before I read it, I knew I'd love everything about this. But whatever, easily a 5 star read for me!

Nice movie tie-in book. There are lots of pictures from the film along with pictures of the actual band. It really makes you appreciate the details and the accuracy in the costumes and such.

It's a good look into the behind the scenes of the movie, Bohemian Rhapsody. Lots of pictures and information about most of the departments and things that make a movie. A great coffee table book.
