While it’s massive in visual scope, In The Heights never loses focus on the characters of its world, wrapping its songs and story around a warm, beating heart that shows a community proud to be who it is. It’s a movie that sees itself, and its characters, as it does its audience: proudly, with much needed warmth and humor. Dreams like this, whether they be large or small, need a big screen to be truly seen; and In The Heights is absolutely worthy of being made into a big time moviegoing experience.
