"Bohemian Rhapsody" just like candy

How do you like my ambiguous title?
So welcome to my trio of reviews about the Queen movie "Bohemian Rhapsody" and 2 new and different candy bars!
Starting with the movie :
I found "Bohemian Rhapsody" to be a captivating and fun to watch movie about the legendary rock band "Queen" and it's iconic frontman, Freddy Mercury.
A lot of the movie dealt with the creation of "Queen's" most iconic songs, relationships between the band members, the record deals. The movie also dealt with Freddy's life. His early days with his family, his wife and later his discovery that, while still being in love with his wife - that he is in fact gay, and his subsequent relationship with his boyfriend. All of this drama unfolds set against brilliant sets and fantastic costuming oh and let's not forget - the fantastic soundtrack. In all, for not being a huge "Queen" fan - I did really enjoy this movie. I also thought that the more delicate issues, such as Freddy's personal life - were handled with taste. And I liked that they featured Freddy's cats as well.
Now for the candy.
Did you know that KitKat makes a dark chocolate version? It is glorious!
Snickers makes a 4 piece bar with almond butter. I'm disappointed to say that the almond butter doesn't replace the peanuts but instead is added to it. I don't like the crunchy in the bar. But the 4 piece format was kind of nice. I liked it better than a regular Snickers - but then I'm not a huge snickers fan.

@MGjhaud I really enjoyed the movie. I think it did earn those awards.
I would totally try that Matcha KitKat, but I don't think we have it here

Matcha Kitktat is widely known here in Southeast Asia! But they originally were popular in Japan...
I haven't seen Bohemian Rhapsody yet but judging from the trailer it sure is a great movie to look forward to! Waiting on it on Netflix. :)

Oh good for you about the sweets. That's difficult. What's your favorite "Queen" song?

I knew about the movie but havent seen it and probably wont. Not a fan, myself. And also not into dark chocolate or snickers.
Glad you enjoyed two of the three.

@FayeHazel One thing that I thought was amazing was how the actor who portrayed Brian May, looked exactly like him.

I'm not a big Queen fan either...That's probably how you found the one movie I've never seen, because it's about them. But it does sound kind of interesting so if you want to add it to a Movie Night List, you have my blessings.
I am a big Kit Kat and Snickers fan. But not of dark chocolate (But if you want to make Dark Chocolate Kit Kat the featured candy for a Movie Night, you have my blessings). In fact most of the new Kit Kat variations, like white chocolate and about a dozen others, I'm not too crazy about. I'm also not a big fan of any of the Snickers variations but I haven't tried the Almond Butter ones yet.

@FayeHazel Cool. And if I get bored, I can practice massage techniques or something.
All the dark chocolate is yours. 100% of it. With one exception, the little spot of chocolate on top of Toffifays...they say it's dark chocolate but I'm skeptical because it tastes good. Maybe it's because they are named after you but whatever the reason, I love eating them.

Lol. Ah yes, even though I'm not a huge fan it was still watchable and enjoyable. So on the list it goes. :-)
No dark chocolate? Does that mean the dark chocolate is all mine? Yay!

Oh no! Im sorry for the confusion. The one that had the peanuts in it was the Snickers bar. I know they usually do have peanuts - but since it said "almond butter Snickers" I thought that maybe it wouldn't have the peanuts. Instead it had both. Kit Kat (as far as I know) is peanutless.
