In the Heights Movie Reviews
As Honest as the Day is Long…
As sweet as sugar spun candy, sets the tone for a modus operandi, with elegant rhymes, delectable chimes but the story’s too long and has no key.
A beautiful presentation of the brilliance of people but it just lacks a bit of oomph in the arch.
Dreams
On a beach, Usnavi (Anthony Ramos) tells a group of youngsters about a place called Washington Heights in the faraway Nueva York. It’s the days before the 1999 blackout. Usnavi runs a bodega but dreams of returning to his childhood home of Dominican Republic. He has a crush on the beautiful Vanessa (Melissa Barrera) who dreams of being a fashion designer. Nina returns from Stanford and is unwilling to go back especially if her father Kevin Rosario (Jimmy Smits) has to sell off his business to pay the tuition.
It’s a Lin-Manuel Miranda musical directed by Jon M. Chu. I really loved some of this. It is too long and probably has too many story elements. The two main young couples could be combined into a simpler single Romeo and Juliet romance. It would allow the DACA story to have more space to breathe. Despite all the hot young things, the most emotional song is Abuela’s powerful life story. I do like the visual of Vanessa running down the empty street with the fabrics flowing down the buildings. I don’t know if it’s possible but Vanessa may be too beautiful. I would have liked for Nina’s college drama to be shown. The emotional climax is really Abuela’s song and the DACA protest. The movie drags on a bit long after that although that is a fine ending. The main theme of this movie is dream which does present a minor problem. By itself, it does not give that much kinetic energy to the story. Everybody is just pining for money (from the lotto) to make their dreams come to life. All in all, I love quite a bit of this even if it is long.
The Heights And Depths
It ‘s a big, sprawling movie about a Hispanic block in upper Manhattan’s Washington Heights, and how each of them has his or her own dream, most of which are some variation of getting out of Washington Heights. It’s a steady, dependable sort of multi-generational plot that was paying Fanny Hurst’s bills more than a century ago, the stories and dreams seem well told, even if there are too may of them to keep in your head when we return to a particular character. It’s also a musical, the one that Lin-Manuel Miranda wrote and directed and starred in to make his bones. John Chu has taken over the direction and Anthony Ramos the role.
There’s some handsome, if not original choreography in this movie, bits lifted from WEST SIDE STORY and ROYAL WEDDING. It follows the tendency to make a big production number out of every dance. Until the next to last one, I experienced the despair I so often feel looking at modern movie musicals, convinced they’ve forgotten how to move the camera, but instead cut, cut, cut. The last dance, however, showed they hadn’t. They just would rather do a zip cut than plan out the complex movements.
Sigh. Still, the songs were surprisingly strong, particularly “Paciencia Y Fe”, sung by Olga Merediz. It’s a skilled and enthusiastic cast, and it makes me hope that Hollywood will go back to making musicals, that are more than Broadway musicals filmed in front of a proscenium arch.
