WHERE TO WATCH

Reviews(1)

  • An awkward Broadway musical awkwardly adapted by cutting ensemble songs and focusing on its awkward lead, who is the same actor from the stage, awkwardly too old for the role. It also tries to make Evan Hansen more sympathetic, and shoehorns in a Kickstarter plot that doesn't quite work.

4/10

Dear Evan Hansen goes for sincerity but it lacks awareness about its central character and has nothing interesting or deep to say about mental health.
