I was stunned by all of those negative reviews. I thought the stage play was masterfully presented on the big screen. The camera work was well coordinated and well edited, with attention to views from above and strategic close-ups of the actors, revealing the extent of their talent and their immersion in their roles. The stage design was better appreciated from the higher cameras, which revealed ver mais...

I didn’t finish Hamilton. I didn’t want to. I didn’t need to. From the moment someone opened their mouth and started rapping about the Federalist Papers, I knew: this was not for me. Impressive, I guess, but also exhausting. It’s like being stuck at a dinner party where everyone speaks in rhyming couplets and references the Constitution. I didn’t sign up for “Founding Fathers: The Talent Show.”ver mais...

What a load of rubbish, trying too much to be edgy it became disgusting

I guess it's a musical, and the world needs more of them, so there is that going for it. And I guess the races are swapped so... that is supposed to make it really good for reasons that aren't really clear. But, really, it's void of wit and insight, it is completely insulting to history with the only thing that seems accurate and true to life is that Hamilton existed and was Secretary of State ver mais...

If you didn't know going in, this isn't either a film or a TV show. It's a recording of the Broadway play of the same name. Admittedly, this play is for Americans who already have some idea of history. That probably excludes the younger generations, since the public school systems have gone south with years of Republican under-funding. (Seriously, some teachers make less than burger flippers.) ver mais...

"My name is Alexander Hamilton/And there's a million things I haven't done/But just you wait, just you wait," Lin-Manuel Miranda sort of sings at the beginning of Hamilton. About three hours later we're still waiting. Hamilton is divided into two acts. The first covers Hamilton's arrival in New York City in 1776, his work as General George Washington's aide-de-camp during the American Revolutiover mais...

This is not a Movie. It is a television program. It is a filmed stage play that is being broadcast on television. These things do not add up to this being a film, not even a TV-movie.

I suppose this movie was behind the eight ball from the very start in a way. On the one hand, there was such a tremendous hype for it as a play, it built the expectation of being blown away, and on the other hand, it being presented in its live theater version made it lose some of the visual impact of seeing it in person. We expect a greater production value on the screen. The story is great, aver mais...

A Disappointment This is a musical not made for people outside of the USA. I had to watch the thing again and wiki Hamilton to try to figure out who was who except for some of the bigger names. Going by the poster, this is was meant to be some attempted rise to fame of Harry Potter in Hollywood. The casting was varied, which is great generally, but not representative of history (noone ver mais...
