Haven't watched it and have no plans to. I'm sure it's very good but my wife regularly listens to a musicals playlist on Amazon Music and it features lots of songs from Hamilton and they're all just so staggeringly preachy that I can't stand them and have to skip them. Hence, I'm not going to watch it.

It's good, I listened to the soundtrack a few times before I saw it in 2018 in New York.

Unfortunately massive jet-lag meant I was really flagging through part 2.

Am planning to re-watch it on Disney+ at some point.

Saw it a couple of years ago in the theatre after having to queue for ages to get in (part of their stupid marketing ploy). I can see why people love the show but I thought it was OK. The first 15 minutes blew me away, it was awesome because it's not like a traditional musical, but then the rest of it was fairly flat with a few good bits here and there, and I thought the 2nd half was quite slow. My wife loved it and has seen it again since with a friend who also loves it.
