![]() ![]() Alexandra Shipp brings so much gravitas and heart to Susan that we can honestly see both sides of the problems in their relationship. Vanessa Hudgens continues to build her impressive post-HSM musical career. Broadway veteran Robin de Jesus lends an incredible amount of charm and humor to Larson’s best friend Michael. The rest of the cast is equally up to matching Garfield though. If the Oscars aren’t in his future, there will be a great injustice done. Listen to his soaring belt on the high notes of “30/90” and contrast it with the soft vulnerability of the emotional “Why” and you can see just how much of an accomplishment this performance is. A mountain that Garfield seemingly climbs with great ease. Larson’s music was already written for the higher register and this part in particular is a mountain vocally. And for those that wonder, yes, the kid has some serious singing chops. Garfield so perfectly encapsulates the manic energy and jovial persona of Larson that it truly is one of those examples of an actor completely fading into the character. Garfield has over the years steadily turned himself from bright new star to legitimate acting powerhouse. ![]() The performances are fantastic all-around but not enough praise can be given to the leading man. MACALL POLAY/NETFLIX © 2021/MACALL POLAY/NETFLIX © 2021 tick, tick.BOOM! (L-R) ANDREW GARFIELD as JONATHAN LARSON in tick, tick.BOOM!. But they also still get the little bits of personality, such as during the most emotional part of the story, that reminds us these aren’t just avatars but characters in their own right. ![]() This trio does so well at presenting the music in the rock concert style we immediately want to hear them do more and more. They’re played by Broadway vets Joshua Henry and Vanessa Hudgens. Jon is joined onstage by two other singers to help play the narrative characters. It helps the audience immensely in making the music make sense. It reminds me of the way in which Rob Marshall framed all of the musical action in Chicago as happening inside Roxie’s head as opposed to simply out-of-nowhere. Thus the narrative action is still being narrated to us by Jon, but in a way that “makes sense” to the common movie-going audience. In the film, Miranda morphs this style by presenting the music as the real-life concert Larson performed in 1990. In the stage version, the story is presented in the standard musical narrative way except narrated in real time directly to the audience from Jon. On film, compelling reasons are very necessary and can make or break a movie musical critically. Some just have too hard a time with the suspension of disbelief for why a character is singing their thoughts all of a sudden. It’s a hurdle that many a movie musical cannot overcome. The true genius of the story here is the way in which Miranda frames the musical action. Macall Polay/NETFLIX/Macall Polay/NETFLIX TICK, TICK…BOOM! (L-R) Andrew Garfield as Jonathan Larson, Alexandra Shipp as Susan in TICK, TICK…BOOM! Photo Credit: Macall Polay/NETFLIX ©2021 Cheering him on is his roommate and best friend Michael (Robin de Jesus), who has given up his acting hopes for a high-paying advertising job, and Susan (Alexandra Shipp) his long-suffering but supportive girlfriend. He’s hoping this workshop leads to the show being produced which will fulfill his dream and let him finally quit his job at the Moondance Diner. The story is simple enough: young Jonathan Larson (an Oscar-worthy Andrew Garfield) is mere days away from the workshop for his musical Superbia which he has been writing for the last eight years. If that seems a little too hyperbolic, I think we can all at least agree that it has a claim to that crown. It’s with that context in mind that I can honestly tell you Lin Manuel Miranda’s adaptation of Larson's autobiographical (and most prominent work aside from RENT) musical is not only one of the best films of the year, but maybe, just maybe, one of the best movie musicals we’ve ever seen. I can trace so many of the decisions in my life to what hearing his music for the first time awoke in my head and heart. And it was all because of Larson, the enigmatic composer who would never get to see his masterpiece fully realized. I was a modest fan of musicals before, but after that performance my love was solidified. I still remember so vividly the first time I saw RENT and how it literally changed everything for me. I’ll get it out of the way right off the bat: Jonathan Larson has, for a very long time, been a sacred figure to me. ![]()

![]() ![]() ![]() Initially reluctant because of the increased radiation exposure and other risks, SpaceX agreed after a safety review. The only significant change is the large domed window at the top in place of the usual space station docking mechanisms.Īn accomplished pilot, Isaacman persuaded SpaceX to take the Dragon capsule higher than it’s ever been. Their automated capsule has already been to orbit: It was used for SpaceX’s second astronaut flight for NASA to the space station. The door’s opening now and it’s pretty incredible.” Isaacman noted upon reaching orbit that few people have been to space - fewer than 600 over 60 years. Inside the capsule, Proctor looked giddy with joy, cupping her hands to form a heart before liftoff and then pumping her fists. But this time, the Dragon capsule aimed for an altitude of 357 miles (575 kilometers), just beyond the Hubble Space Telescope.Īcross the country, SpaceX employees at company headquarters in Hawthorne, California, cheered wildly at every flight milestone, including when the spent first-stage booster landed upright on an ocean platform. ![]() The recycled Falcon rocket soared from the same Kennedy Space Center pad used by the company’s three previous astronaut flights for NASA. “Low-Earth orbit is now more accessible for more people to experience the wonders of space,” tweeted NASA Administrator Bill Nelson, a congressman when he hitched a ride on a space shuttle decades ago. Once opposed to space tourism, NASA is now a supporter.

![]() ![]() Prince of Persia 3D would have been amazing had it been more refined in certain specific areas. Then again, this problem goes both ways your enemies will just as often not be able to hit you while you whack away at them with impunity. Thankfully, enemies will run up and get in position for a fight, but often you'll just start swinging wildly while they bash away at you. You can't turn while your weapon is drawn, which makes lining up with an enemy difficult. Such situations are all too common in Prince of Persia 3D.ĭuring combat, the camera angle is less of an issue because the perspective switches to a side view when your weapon is drawn, and while this feature is helpful, it too produces its share of annoyances. But that doesn't help when your back is against a wall and you're trying to make a difficult jump while the camera is showing you in close-up profile. ![]() You can control the camera Tomb Raider-style if you stand still and manipulate it manually. The camera stays at a fixed point behind the prince, and only occasionally adjusts itself to clear objects and obstructions. The perspective is almost as problematic. And the game often won't respond to two commands at once, so that actions such as drawing your weapon or simply jumping while running are far more difficult than they should be. He turns wide, which makes running around corners a chore. Turning the prince while running feels like trying to steer an 18-wheeler. ![]() ![]() The game's worst flaw is its sluggish and unresponsive control. The inconsistent visuals would be easier to ignore if the game didn't have more serious problems. Then again, it's been ten years since he first took to adventuring, so perhaps we should give him a break. The motion-captured animation looks great, except when the prince runs up stairs or ramps, at which point he looks like an old man who just doesn't have it in him anymore. That's not to say they look bad (except in the cutscenes, in which the disproportional bodies and strange faces of the characters can look downright ugly), but they don't look particularly special either. The levels also look quite stunning and are filled with big, exotic architecture and wondrous gadgets and machinery.īut while the levels themselves look great, the characters that populate them don't. The game is well paced it has just enough enemies so combat doesn't get tedious, enough exciting moments to make you want to keep playing, and enough puzzles to keep things interesting in between. The excellent level design in Prince of Persia 3D makes such stunts commonplace. During the course of the game, you'll find yourself swinging from ropes across wide chasms, leaping off high ledges to slide down rising drawbridges, and other exciting stunts. Only a handful of games have so successfully created the feeling that you are capable of such daring feats. In fact, the trap-jumping, guard-fighting gameplay of the original translates nicely to 3D, and the best part of the game is how effectively it utilizes these elements. That Prince of Persia 3D is essentially a three-dimensional version of its predecessors is no criticism. But once again, the prince has been imprisoned and left for dead, and he must escape the clutches of the villain and rescue his fair maiden. Prince of Persia 3D follows this formula exactly, only this time the game is in 3D, and the prince and his princess are married. In them, you controlled the prince as he climbed ledges, fought guards, and jumped over and crawled under traps, all in search of his beloved and imprisoned fiancée. The previous two Prince of Persia games, the first from 1989 and its sequel The Shadow and the Flame from 1993, were both side-scrolling action games. Yet this third outing for Jordan Mechner's swashbuckling hero has two tragic flaws, and these problems are so overwhelming that the good parts seem wasted. But there is much to like about Prince of Persia 3D, and certain aspects of it are especially excellent. If the game were terrible or even mediocre, it would be easy to file away with all other such games that come out month after month. If everything about Prince of Persia 3D were bad, it wouldn't be nearly as frustrating as it is. ![]() ![]() ![]() In the games Kamiwaza Wanda: Kirakira Ichibangai Kikiippatsu Bug-Kagimin was then recaptured and debugged by Yuto in chapter 04.Īlong with the other Promins Yuto and Masato have so far in chapter 12, Kagimin helped Yuto, Masato, Wanda and Mighty summon Wonder-Promin.
