Bohemian Rhapsody
Unless you've been living under a rock, you will almost certainly be familiar with the 1975 Queen hit Bohemian Rhapsody – and this biographical drama of the same name tells the story of the legendary British band, how the radio refused to play their songs til they decided to switch it up and turn into international superstars, with Egyptian-born Rami Malek seamlessly transforming into the legendary Freddie Mercury, who is the focus of the film.
Surprisingly, since its release, the movie hasn’t exactly had the best reception amongst critics, yet people seem to love it.

The World is Yours
It would be silly not to watch this movie due to the fact that it’s in French. Aren’t you bored of the typical Hollywood blockbusters? ‘The World is Yours’ seamlessly blends in comedy with the dark world of drug dealing, as Fares has to go through one last major job to get out of this life of crooks and dodgy individuals.
