Critics Consensus:Percy Jackson:Sea Of Monsters

Hi! We are Critics Consensus. We post the regular critics opinion for video games and movies! Today it is the new not so long awaited Percy Jackson sequel.

It's funny because the original Percy Jackson didn't even do well commercially or critically. It was meant to be the next Harry Potter or Twilight series but nothing really boosted it to fame. But you know what? Every thing gets the sequel tag slapped on it so here's another one.

Percy Jackson:The Sea Of Monster is atrocious. The plot is contrived on so many levels and every character is generic screamed out in a megaphone. The script does not do much better either with the two hour runtime. A lot of critics have given this a 20\100 or below so

Overall stay away.

Percy Jackson: Sea Of Monsters is rated PG-13.

Critics Consensus:Planes

Hi! We are Critics Consensus. We post the regular critics opinion for video games and movies! Today it is a spinoff of Cars. YAY!!!! It's gonna be a crapfest.

OK. Disney is practically using kids as sheep to herd to theaters for their latest disaster Planes. The catch of Planes is that it has the Pixar label on it but even with the decrease in quality in Pixar films lately Pixar only animated this. But people will shell money out of their pockets for trash I guess.
Planes has nothing to prove to widen it from every other kids movie as Film.com said. It looks good with the computer animated graphics but there's no substance and that's what Pixar films used to be made with. Now it looks like money is the key factor instead of a good script as Austin Chronicle said.
Overall just no. No no no no no.
Planes is rated PG.

Critics Consensus:Elysium

Hi! We are Critics Consensus. We post the regular critics opinion for video games and movies! Today it is Elysium a new action drama from the director of District 9.

District 9 was known as one of the best movies of the year and one of the best sci-fi movies known to exist. Now Neill Blomkamp is making a new action thriller called Elysium. It's got an amazing storyline so does it bode well?
Unfortunately not. Elysium is not a bad disappointment by any means but is certainly leftover dinner compared to District 9. The acting is not that visceral as District 9 with Jodie Foster's fake contrived accent and the movie trying to fit too much into it's timeframe. Elysium is one of the best movies of the summer though. Only because nothing good came out in the summer.
Overall only see this movie if you want to.
Elysium is rated R.
