Rotten Tomatoes finally has a rating for Weird: The Al Yankovic Story. The strange biopic is certified fresh on the platform with a 92% on the tomato meter. But, even more amazing is the sterling 100% audience score. Daniel Radcliffe plays the parody musician in a movie that riffs on the established conventions of the biopic drama. It’s an absolute hoot to see Radcliffe absolutely commit to the bit while in character. Audiences clearly agree with that assessment judging by that score. The former child star has made a point to select roles that are a bit more out there due to the freedom he gained by being in such a massive franchise so early in his career. Yankovic has been pleased with his younger counterpart’s interpretation of the “Weird Al” character. After all, some of the stuff in this movie flat out did not happen, but makes for a great moviegoing experience.
