I always enjoyed the music of Queen* and in the course of their active years while I worked in radio I spoke with each of the four original members and found them to be thoughtful, delightful, sincere and hard-working, and sometimes all of those qualities at the same time.
They never took themselves too seriously which, in my opinion, is not always true of their (still devoted) legion of fans, many of whom are (I have been told) extremely angry at this send up, but I cannot imagine why.
It's Wayne's World for Dudettes, and I think the ladies acquit themselves well. Even if I have a hard time with where the steering wheel is located.
