"In the Heights." Lights up on Washington Heights... The scent of a cafecito caliente hangs in the air just outside of the 181st Street subway stop, where a kaleidoscope of dreams rallies this vibrant and tight-knit community.

Deborah Ross The Spectator The choreography (by Christopher Scott) is always terrific and there's that unstoppable energy which, given the film's running time, might eventually have you shouting: "Stop. Stop with the unstoppable energy! I'm over it!" But, you know, what the hell. Jul 29, 2021 Full Review Esther Zuckerman Thrillist Ramos instantly secures his future as a leading man, but every single member of the cast is giving it their all, infusing their vocals and movements with life. Jul 29, 2021 Full Review David Stratton The Australian While the individual musical sequences range from the exciting to the charming, the film drags in spots. Despite that it's a must for musical lovers... Rated: 3.5/5 Jun 29, 2021 Full Review Zach Youngs InSession Film In the Heights celebrates that the people in our lives should be the most important part of any dream. We can achieve more with each other than without. Jul 3, 2024 Full Review Sarah Vincent Sarah G Vincent Views While In the Heights deserves kudos for depicting authentic immigrant characters in an urban setting, its discomfort with exploring the natural consequences of their actions and demand for a happy ending undercut the film’s authenticity. Jun 12, 2024 Full Review Amy Smith InSession Film With the vibrant soundtrack, gorgeous production and some of the best numbers in a long time such as '96,000' and 'Benny's Dispatch', there's no doubt that In The Heights makes my top five.
