I wanted to give this movie a chance. I'm only about ten minutes in and I agree with some of the other 1-star reviews I took the time to read. At some point I began to assume that everyone was volunteering their time to make this film because it is that low budget in quality. Everything thus far seems over the top and exaggerated, from the camera shots to the dramatic lines. It's just terrible because they give the audience no credit for using our minds to critically think about these characters and scenes. It's all predictable, spelled out, on the nose and annoying. I'm going to grin, bear it to finish it.

I felt like this movie was moving so slow. It took me three days to get to the half way point. It definitely sped up after that and became more interesting. It had every single element of drama you'd expect but somehow it was still sweet and heartwarming. I really enjoyed my way to the end. The casting was spot on for the characters! Tati, Aunjanue, Uzo, Sanaa and the up and comers did this film justice. Tati deserves an award for her acting in this! Some of the comedic scenes were obnoxious, but I get it. It's not necessarily something I'd watch twice. Over all, I'm giving it an 8 as it did capture my interest!

I always fall off from watching and I wouldn't call myself a fan. I watch when I'm in between other series. I have never watched this show live. I stream it and I often fast forward through all of the talking, straight to the singing. I sometimes listen to the awful guesses and then return to fast forwarding. I find the camera shots to the audience's facial reactions annoying and I was curious if it was popular opinion. I'm not sure of what could make it better. Maybe cut the dialogue and replace with more performances which would reduce the number of groups. Nick's responses after the panel give their guesses are recycled. The format needs to change.
