What was inaccurate was that they didn't seem sufficiently boisterous.

Hamilton is unapologetically patriotic. A love song and rhyme to America.

ebv

Jul 3, 10:40pm

That's because America is a great nation built on great principles. We should be embracing those principles and trying

SpiffCoug

Jul 3, 10:51pm

Agreed. There's always room for constructive criticism in that building process.

Maybe I am uncultured, but we started watching it and I was bored.

Overall I don't particularly care for the music - a couple songs are pretty good

Agree with points 1 and 3. Music felt like the same song over and over and over.

Plenty of repetition, on purpose. It moves the story along.
