Lightdeossk Captivating movie !
TrueHello Fun premise, good actors, bad writing. This film seemed to have potential at the beginning but it quickly devolves into a trite action film. Ultimately it's very boring.
Janae Milner Easily the biggest piece of Right wing non sense propaganda I ever saw.
Scarlet The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.
ggspot81 I can't. Jamie Fox (pass) as the host and the show is not that great.
aldunisch What was happening around the time you created Welcome to My Nightmare? put that in theater.
idontbrushmyhair If you want a game to play with your family while watching TV, watch this show. In my house, we make our own teams and keep our own scores, which makes this show much more entertaining to watch. I see a board game of this in the future...and I hope it comes with thousands of songs because I would play the heck out of it. And I would probably win, too. That being said...I feel like it could be more challenging for the contestants. There are decades and decades of music and I feel like they don't change it up enough. I mean, unless you are really trying to give that million dollars away?? It's too easy. We are living in a day and age where nobody listens to only one genre of music. Everybody is pretty much eclectic. Throw some oldies in that mix...like Simon and Garfunkle...Hall and Oates...Paul Anka, Dion, Chuck Berry....don't cater to just the last 30 years!
atlasmb "Beat Shazam" is a game show in which three teams of two try to identify popular songs the fastest. (In the first episode, the teams consisted of a father-son team, a sisters team, and a brothers team.) They compete for cash prizes that start at $1,000. Early rounds are multiple choice.As they go through the rounds, teams are eliminated and the cash prizes increase. In the final round, the winning team competes against the song identification application Shazam. The amount of money at stake is significant. And if the team can identify six consecutive songs faster than Shazam, they win the maximum prize of $1 million.The songs cover all genres. Sometimes they are grouped by artist. Don't expect to hear "Chattanooga Choo Choo", because most songs are from the 1970s on.This is a fast moving show. Host Jamie Foxx (aided by DJ October Gonzalez) is there to keep things energetic and interesting. Other than when he resorts to race-based humor, he does a good job. In the first episode, guest Terrence Howard chose the titles for one round. This was the best part of the show, because he obviously loves music and his passion elevated the proceedings. I missed this feature in the second episode. Future guests should have similarly diverse tastes.Although I could not identify many of the songs and (unlike "Jeopardy", for example) I was not taught much, the quick pace and the unabashed joy for music made the show very enjoyable.
