The choice of songs in the concert film felt predictable and safe, with Queen sticking to their greatest hits without taking any risks or showcasing their versatility as musicians. It would have been more engaging to see the band explore different musical styles or experiment with new arrangements, especially considering the unique setting of the performance in Hungary during a politically tense time.
