In the Heights, from the writer of Hamilton, is another film full of great songs. It is also from the director of Crazy Rich Asians, and it is very charming much like that film. Likable characters, great choreography and a love of New York and community. The flaws here though is the pacing. At one point i thought "damn this is fast paced" then i saw that it was only 45 minutes into a 143 minute film. The plot has heart but feels a bit empty and contrived. I didn't hate it by any means i just was tired of it early on.
