tick, tick... Boom!

Correct me if i'm wrong. I've seen so many actors in their respective movies and also off-screen (i.e., just in interviews, not in flesh), this guy is charming on & off-screen. I mean, his acting is so unique and incredibly realistic. He provides extra details and mentions more than required crew members and respects them. I just hope people would give good reviews for this excellent movie.

I liked this movie a lot more than I thought it would.

I find that Netflix movies are hard to predict normally they are let downs but this one broke the cycle for me.

It was thoughtful. There was obviously research done by everyone involved.

Considering this is his directorial debut I do think that he does a good job for the most part. I think some scenes are amazing and will stick but others can be a little plainer.

Andrew Garfield is the star of the show though. His performance was fantastic. He really gave into the role. The pretentiousness, the heart, the sadness. He played the typical "musical theatre nerd" perfectly. It was so theatrical and over the top which worked. But the moments that called for more depth were also amazing. He was about to really capture the sadness.

I was really impressed. The music is as great too. The majority of the songs had a life of their own and felt original. They felt fresh even though this play was wrote in 1990.

I love Andrew Garfield and this was the main motif, for me, to see this film. And real, he did a great role. And , real, my appreciation for him becomes more intense. And the admiration for great job of Lin Manuel Miranda. The film can be seen as hommage to Jonathan Larson. In same measure, it works very well as nice sketch for many anonimous lives, not very different by the lead character, between love, friendship, self acceptance, ambitious projects and need to be remarked as fair result of not doubts vocation. And a nice kick to they far to have opportunity of courage to become a real name. That last thing , the mix of confrontations, desires and dreams and frustrations , well used, well served represents the great good point of this movie. And, sure, fine exploration of the universe of shows and expressions of pure freedom. It can be perceived as a sketch about truth in its complex nuances , off course, but, in same measure, it is a magnificent musical, impressive not only for familiar ingredients of genre, for admirable energy of Andrew Garfield, for beautiful acting for supporting roles , but for high honesty. It is a very, very, very honest film, thing so rare today. And that transforms it in a personal story, easy as kick to remind the transition from 29 years old to 30, the round crisis, the decision to begin real life. Few scenes in this film are just gorgeous. So, must see it ! Not for be seduced. But for a great, profound useful perspective about life.

For me this movie doesn't take any time to hook the viewer. As soon as Andrew Garfield start singing, i already got in to the movie.

The story was quite fast to catch but give it more effort and you'll be there. Me personally got a little loose in the middle of the movie, but doesn't take to much time to get back at it again.

All i can say that Andrew Garfield is in his element, and you're gonna see a really great performance.

"tick, tick...BOOM! Is one of my favorite movies of the year! Boasting memorable, addictive, first-rate music performed by astonishingly talented actors, Lin-Manuel Miranda delivers one of the best musical films of the century.

From the absolute standout, "30/90", to the highly satisfying payoff, "Louder than Words", the vast majority of songs serve a necessary purpose, moving the plot forward in an entertaining manner while also developing the compelling characters.

Andrew Garfield delivers one of the best performances of his career, demonstrating his impressive emotional range and artistic skills, both as an actor and a performer. Technically, no fault to point out whatsoever.

Do NOT miss this work of art!"
