Why would one of, irrefutably, the best directors of all time put his heart and soul into a remake when he could have given us an original film?! What on earth can Steven Spielberg give to or do for this film that wasn’t already done? I have been in your shoes. I wondered the exact same thing.

Then I saw it.
tick, tick…BOOM! Movie Review
While watching “tick, tick…BOOM!” I was overcome with the impression that the music and overall feeling of the film were similar to that of “Rent.” I’ve seen “Rent” on-screen and live onstage many times, so I consider myself a bit of an expert on the subject.

Dear Evan Hansen Movie Review
May I start by asking filmmakers to help me out? Please stop having people shove their heads into the toilet, vomiting out their stomach-churning panic and dread every time they’re upset!
