This really doesn't reach any real heights, the music is predictable but forgettable. This is the poor relation to Hamilton. The sets and setup don't really match the location and time that it is supposed to be. It seems sanitized to the point of losing the whole context of what it is supposed to be about.
Not as good a Crazy Rich Asians, though there are some fun scenes (dancing on the side of the building). Again the question always is: does it add? Not really. Wait till it is free on streaming.

I had never seen the heights musical but loved Hamilton so to hear that the director of ‘Crazy Rich Asians’ (another favourite) directed this one, it was a no brainer!.
it’s such a feel good movie. I’m so glad I bought and not rented as just like CRA, I wouldn’t have been able to watch it just the one time!
Carribean/hip hop fusion, definitely recommend.

Beautiful, touching movie with wonderful music and performances. Loved the story about a community of immigrants finding their belonging and hope in each other. Deserved more attention when it was released but hopefully it will find a wide audience

This is a great adaptation of one of my favourite stage shows. It's vibrant and joyous and deep.
They lose a star for omitting my favourite song though.

Watched over two nights. Streaming quality very poor on the first night. Pixellated, etc. Very good on the second. Internet otherwise working fine on both nights as confirmed with speed checks.

Nice movie. Just a standard script of demographic happiness evolving in the hood...heights!

I really loved everything in this film, you don't have to be Latino to identify with this movie.

Be taken away on a journey to Washington heights and feel like your a member of the community. This movie is filled with music and dance and it’s hard to contain yourself in your seat! 🤩

Outstanding
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 3 October 2021Verified Purchase
If I could have given more than 5 stars I would. Story line amazing,singing amazing,dancing outstanding,characters fantastic, uplifting is an under statement , sad in one part but it makes the story for me in so many ways. I very rarely watch a film twice but this one I would, and if you love New York you will love this film for sure the icing on the cake for me. Now I need to see the stage show but not sure I will be able to sit still for long and will have some tissues at the ready.

Great but over-long.

There are many good things about this Blu Ray - and it has excellent sound and image. But the film itself would be vastly improved if it was 20 minute shorter and the cuts need to come in the first third. The endlessly repetitive music and dance numbers just go on and on with diminishing returns. It’s only when the real drama takes place that the motion picture begins to have the impact the storyline deserves. The performances, direction and camerawork are all terrific but there are just too many musical numbers and if they had been trimmed the movie might have been a little masterpiece.

ONE OF THE BEST MUSICALS
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 26 December 2021Verified Purchase
I saw it in 4K the picture and sound are incredible. The story is strong and the music is, well, fantastic, the dancing great. It is the first musical I've ever seen about latino music. Don't look at the box office it came out at the wrong time (COVID). Can't wait to see again.

Absolute brilliant movie
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 15 May 2022Verified Purchase
I love the storyline and the characters, it’s so true to real life and how the poor and Ethnic minority have to manage without help from the local Government, also having power cuts at random, “we are powerless” in more ways then one!

Not for me
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 11 December 2021Verified Purchase
I saw this advertised in the cinema and thought it would be great as I like musical/ dance. Sorry to say I gave it to someone who had a teenage daughter thinking they'd prefer it .
As I'm in the pensioner age group this might reflect on my rating, but it just didn't grab me,sorry.
