Bohemian Rhapsody Review: 5 Ups & 5 Downs

2. Mike Myers' Hilarious Cameo

In case you weren't aware, Mike Myers has a cameo in the movie as EMI executive Ray Foster, and his brief appearance is one of the best scenes in the entire film.

The scene in question sees the band attempting to convince Foster, who has worked with the likes of Pink Floyd and Jimi Hendrix previously, to push Bohemian Rhapsody as a single, despite the song's six-minute length proving offputting to radio stations.

Myers, who performs the entire scene under a pair of sunglasses - despite being indoors, hilariously - and a silly wig, once again proves his wonderful penchant for blending into a scene, given that most viewers probably won't even realise it's him.

His performance is a real giggle, coming complete with a totally unsubtle reference to his iconic scene from Wayne's World, which of course famously features the song itself.

Please be in more movies, Mike Myers. We miss you.
