This was worse than cats. Now, if you’ll excuse me, I need to persuade someone to find me another ticket. Harry Potter levels of hype made me run a mile from the musical theatre phenomenon. They don't make them like they used.
Watching a bunch of dorks try to rap about the signing of the constitution is one of the best laughs I have had in a while. I can't understand some of the cast at times. But what, actually, is it, I asked? Hamilton … see it or your life has been a waste. You should, too, trust me. Liam Neeson is from there, but so is Kenneth Branagh, who has just been awarded the freedom of Belfast. Unfortunately, it's not very good. The audio is terrible. The camera work is even worse!!! It’s next to Victoria station – the worst station in Britain – with a queue so long it doubles back on itself, a horrific real-life version of Snake.
Lin Manuel's voice is like nails on a chalkboard and the lyrics of the songs are like a child wrote them and the delivery is like a middle school theater production.
They devoured its scriptures, learned them by heart. NO THANKS! If you’re going to school me from the historical aspect of it, please don’t. The audio is terrible and hard to understand.
It seems that, whether you're a long time fan of Hamilton or if you've stayed away, the show really is everything you've been promised. Absolute garbage I literally had to get glasses after looking at that pile of trash overhyped there all nonces terrible cast, Notable Video Game Releases: New and Upcoming, What to Watch Now on HBO Max and the HBO App, Best of 2018: Film Awards and Nominations, Music title data, credits, and images provided by, Movie title data, credits, and poster art provided by. When I was at drama school, musical theatre kids were regarded as agents of Satan. Pure This is laughable!
Hamilton passed that point in 2016, months before I understood what it was. I can’t keep banging on about Van Morrison and Seamus Heaney. I like plays. Then a friend forced me to buy a ticket …, Last modified on Thu 26 Mar 2020 08.32 EDT.
“Have you seen our flag?
It’s basically a bright red happy slap.” She’s having a party to celebrate the last episode of Derry Girls this week, with Northern Irish music and food. In the end, it seems that whether you've seen Hamilton on stage before or not, you're in for a treat. I didn't realize how cringy Hamilton was going to be.

American musicals are to music what Asian-Western "fusion" food is to gastronomy, a blend of two things that should stay separate. I won’t. It’s incredible. Its honestly so bad that its funny. “Carbohydrates,” Connor says, texting me what looks like a Christmas dinner with two kinds of potato, which she ate last night. Way overhyped. Just another example of people scared to criticize people with tans. In some ways, this means you have the best seat in the house because you won't miss anything important.
They tap-danced in corridors.
Overhyped PC hot garbage. Promotional shots include grainy pictures of Timberlake scowling at horses and hugging himself in a barley field.
They were expensive and I was sure we’d all be dead by 2018. A friend had made me buy a batch a year ago because I worked at home and had “loads of free time” to endlessly refresh a ticketing browser without losing my job. I don’t get Hamilton. 0 out of 10. Just another example of people scared to criticize people with tans.
Definitely over-hyped. A musical about an 18th-century treasury secretary, they replied. But it has been 20 years since the Good Friday agreement, and it’s time I learned more.
Unread Harry Potter books, unseen Game of Thrones seasons, unheard Beyoncé albums – they all come laden with a sense that anyone who continues to live life in their absence has failed. Their art form was asinine, covertly conservative and far too popular. Imagine the number of stylists and location scouts needed to make this happen; I hope he paid them in squirrel. If I’d been asked growing up, I would have replied that it was full of “staunch” Protestants and “devout” Catholics, which seems, I dunno, a bit reductive.
Watching a bunch of dorks try to rap about the signing of the constitution is one of the best laughs I have had in a while. That was the most horrifically irritating thing about seeing Hamilton; being in the presence of something extraordinary, a modern classic, and realising I was wrong. This is the worst movie I've seen all year. People are removed from the line if all the members of their party aren’t there. Epcot Stan. This is laughable! Hamilton arrives on Disney+ on July 3.
Or at least, it would be if there was anything currently on Broadway.
And while seeing some of the staging up close will give long time fans a new appreciation of it, some of it doesn't work quite as well up close. I startled myself the other day with the realisation that I don’t know enough about contemporary Northern Irish culture. What is that, I ask. They seriously would have actually made this watchable if they just put the whole stage on one camera and left it like that the whole time. I like plays.
Jefferson’s ownership of slaves is cited by Hamilton as a sign of bad faith (“your debts are paid because you don’t pay for labor”), but Washington’s doesn’t come up. Not good music. Filmed in 2016 with the original Broadway cast, now it costs no more than a month subscription to Disney+ to finally see what all the fuss is about regarding Hamilton, and based on reviews… Hamilton passed that point in 2016, months before I understood what it was. I didn't realize how cringy Hamilton was going to be. CinemaBlend’s resident theme park junkie and amateur Disney historian. Hit musical Hamilton raises top-price tickets to £250.
Most of the acting is cliche and horrible. It’s the worst.
My social media feeds were full of people posing with their gold-hued tickets; declaring themselves excited and ready, as if the mother ship had finally returned for them. And there’s a lot to be fascinated by.
To judge from the reviews, most of the appeal seems to rest with the forced diversity of its cast and the novelty concept of a “hip-hop musical.” Those who write about Hamilton often dwell primarily on its “groundbreaking” use of rap and its “bold” choice to cast an assemblage of black, Asian, and Latino actors as the Founding Fathers. I ask my friend Connor what makes her, er, province special. I didn't realize how cringy Hamilton was going to be. It’s delivered with transfixing panache (hip-hop being the perfect medium), hyper-fluent, verbose, self-aggrandising. The Family Chantel: Why Was Nicole's New Boyfriend So Aggressive Towards Pedro? Filmed in 2016 with the original Broadway cast, now it costs no more than a month subscription to Disney+ to finally see what all the fuss is about regarding Hamilton, and based on reviews, yes, you need to see what all the fuss is about. This is laughable! But the Chicago Tribune points out that the fact that the movie we're seeing is actually a combination of two live performances, along with incidental material filmed separately, allows everything to come together in a way that is designed for the medium of film. Finally: The Case Against Hamilton The hit Broadway musical was all that was wrong with 2016, and will likely be wrong with 2017, too.
Just awful in every way. Popular Culture. In the end, Hamilton could have gotten away with a camera pointed at a stage.
I’ve fallen in love with Lisa McGee’s sitcom, the most charming and laugh-out-loud funny programme I’ve seen in years. NPR points out that the music is a bit less polished in live performance than it is if you're only familiar with listening to the cast album. Yes, even worse than Cats. If the musical is the point, that would get the job done. Sad because it had potential to be great. But it became really unbearable about an hour in, when I understood that the show is as good as everyone says. Armchair Imagineer. Completely and utterly overhyped. CinemaBlend's Sean O'Connell gave the movie a perfect five stars, and says that while it's not really the same as sitting in a Broadway theater, that minor difference isn't enough to take away from what is otherwise a great experience.
While we angsted out over Ibsen, dreaming of baring our souls in empty rooms above pubs, they were vacuous hoofers with perfect skin and pitch, ready to jazz hands over any moment of emotional truth.
