Neither is Bohemian Rhapsody.  It's a formulaic biopic.  The music is fun and I enjoyed the LiveAid recreation on the big screen -- but best picture worthy it is not.[/quote]

14:18 here.  I agree that BR is not really best picture worthy, however OP asked which of the movies are worth watching.  I really enjoyed the music, especially the LiveAid performance - especially because I'm old enough to clearly remember it.  But again -I do agree on it not being oscar-worthy.  [/quote]

Everyone in our family loved Bohemian Rhapsody.

It wasn't the most important subject matter but it was very well acted and took full advantage of the movie screen as an art form and was great entertainment - I think some of the movie's power will be lost watching it at home.

+1 about Bohemian Rhapsody. Bonus if you grew up on Queen songs, it really showcased the music.[/quote]

Bohemian Rhapsody is a Bryan Singer vehicle and he is absolutely vile. Weinstein level. Worse because he involved minors, https://www.indiewire.com/2017/12/bryan-singer-sexual-assault-rape-allegations-timeline-1201903868/. I haven't seen the movie but I hope it doesn't win anything because of that. [/quote]

Fair and important points though he was taken off the project long before the end:

Glad I didn't know this before I saw it though as I likely would have skipped it and missed a great movie.[/quote]
