This had such a strong start and then I think Lin-Manuel Miranda got a bit lost in all the different ideas he had both for particular scenes and for the tone of the movie as a whole. Needed to be a little tighter and have a stronger identity, but some sequences were truly incredible. The way he juxtaposes the actual play, written by Larson, called Tick Tick… BOOM!, which essentially is about the turbulent period of the playwright’s life represented in the film, with the actual narrative scenes, blending them sometimes so that you can’t quite figure out which belongs to which, works really well. Garfield is amazing as always. Overall, a must watch film of the season and a strong contended for many awards.

I don't enjoy watching musicals that often, especially the ones that are made to be watched on your small(est) screen, but this one kept me intrigued. Loved the acting! It was superb! I loved the dialogues, the lyrics, and oh the music is spot on! I know that sounds weird, but it reminded me of Fleabag? like the premise of it? I don't know. Anyway, I loved this movie and will definitely watch it again!

Andrew Garfield is SUPERB. We are lucky to have him in this movie.

This was immensely enjoyable, even if melancholy and downright sad at parts. Not knowing the story of Jon Larson really helped with the pacing and reveals. Garfield simply threw himself at this role. He's been on fire lately between this and The Eyes of Tammy Faye. One of the best performances of the year and I'm sure will be nomination worthy come award season. Fans of Musicals and the history of contemporary productions will probably get much more from this too, as I feel many cameos were present that simply went over my head. Fun and energetic but also human, grounded and real, Tick Tick Boom is a toe tapping, emotion evoking ride from start to finish. More great stuff from Netflix.

tick, tick…BOOM! is a cinematic triumph that captivated me from start to finish. The film tells an inspirational yet tragic story, with both of these elements being captured perfectly by the unique direction of Lin-Manuel Miranda. The backdrop of the AIDS epidemic serves as a poignant reminder of More

I recall reading back in 1996 about Jonathan Larson, the creator of the wonderful "Rent" (amongst others) and was intrigued to see just how Lin-Manuel Miranda might tackle this story. Though fairly well known in theatrical circles now, back in 1989/1990 Larson was a struggling songwriter. Juggling h More
