  Jon M. Chu is quickly becoming known as a director with a flair for lavish set pieces (see Crazy Rich Asian’s wedding scene or In the Heights’ 96,000 pool sequence.) With the latter, Chu presents a new entry into Hollywood’s picturesque “Neuva York,” and the outcome is perhaps the greatest musical brought to film in the last five years. Anthony Russo and Olga Merediz both give Oscar nominee worthy performances, and Miranda’s music is easily adaptable to the screen!
