Blows my mind. I wouldn’t give a drop of piss to see this. In fact they’d have to pay me an awful lot of money to sit through it. I’ve listened to “Rap” since 1980. All be damned if I’m going to sit and listen to some hacks do it. I’ve seen some clips of the head guy “rappin” in this thing and started laughing. What a complete joke. Everyone on their smartphones and Hamilton rapping is the must see thing in society. Got damn. What am I doing? I'm talking to an empty telephone | |||

Great timing....I just watched this one earlier today. I'm not a big fan of musical stuff but I enjoy this one whenever it's on. | |||

My adult kids just dialed it up on Disney+. I moved to the deck for some sun and sig forum.

My wife went to a friend's house to watch it on Disney + last night. I nicely declined to go. She told me she fell asleep while watching it and her friends looked at her like she was crazy. I love my wife. | |||

Yes, all of that. ^ I really enjoyed it. | |||

I just caught it for free on Disney+. Politics of the actors aside, I agree with the above. It's a great production. Highly entertaining. And does a good job of showing a bit of insight into a portion of the founding of our nation and its tumultuous early years after independence. | |||

I watched it to understand the hype and was impressed. Definitely not for everyone. But I am a little biased, because a former student was in the cast.. | |||

Hamilton + Burr = No Humans Involved. Those two wound up getting into it essentially because they'd been competing with each other to see who could whistle up bigger mobs in New York City; both were egotistical punks who never really got anything substantive done and did everything they could to ride their roles as pets for bigger men (Washington for Hamilton, Jefferson, at least initially, for Burr) into the highest possible offices. | |||

Just saw it on Disney. Had mixed feelings going into it. Still do. It IS very well produced and acted, and the singing/rapping can be extremely clever and catchy. But...I got bored about 2/3rds through. It is long, overly. Taking a full 10-minute intermission would help. I expect seeing it live, as I was going to do this month at the Kennedy Center, would have been quite an experience. But our tickets were like $100 each as my wife is a Kennedy Center regular. | |||

It's very well done, and the rap isn't offensive. It does favor Hamilton. "I am a Soldier. I fight where I'm told and I win where I fight." GEN George S. Patton, Jr. | |||

Rap?  Sounds like pure garbage Any drive-by shootings or drug deals in this masterpiece? Is the term "baby daddy" or "baby mama" uttered? You know, for Jefferson. How about 'EBT'? 'Purple drank'? Good grief | |||

There's more to rap than just "gangsta rap". Just like there's more to rock music than just death metal. If it helps, think of it as spoken word poetry. There's also some more traditional Broadway-style music. | |||

I prefer to think of it in more realistic terms. 'Manure' comes to mind. These self-absorbed assclowns dare to lecture the Vice President? In person? That's indescribably rude to put the man in that position, merely because he had the poor judgement to want to see their steaming pile of crap play. Pence is a bigger man than I, because I would have walked out with my family immediately. They wouldn't have the chance to finish their fucking lecture. | |||

I enjoyed it. The second half drug a little, but I thought it was well done overall. Jonathan Groff’s King George is one of the greatest performances I’ve ever seen. The whole show is worth it just for him. The cabinet meeting rap battles were entertaining too. J Rak Chazak Amats | |||

Yeah, that M14 video guy... |
After they lectured Mike Pence, fuck em! If they paid him respect, I would have maybe given them a chance. They already have a strike against them for only allowing black actors. Tony.

It has some white actors in it. But the leads are black and hispanic. | |||
