Critics Consensus:The Lego Movie Videogame

Hi! We are Critics Consensus.  We post the regular critics opinion for video games and movies! Today it is the all new The Lego Movie based Videogame!

Lego games have always had a certain amount of charm and a pedigree for being good ever since the open-world actually story-based Lego Batman 2. However all hasn't been perfect as now Lego games face their biggest villain yet. (Not Mr.Business) Movie based titles.

However The Lego Movie Videogame isn't all that half bad. Sure it doesn't have an open-world and is really repetitive and monotonous during some parts but the Lego particle effects and cutscenes from the actual movie keep the hype train going and make the film actually somewhat more enjoyable according to Post Arcade and Toronto Sun.

Overall get this game if you want to.

The Lego Movie:Videogame is rated E10+.

Critics Consensus:The Monuments Men

Hi! We are Critics Consensus.  We post the regular critics opinion for video games and movies! Today it is the all new World War 2 epic The Monuments Men!

World War 2 films are always the centrifuge of amazing spectacularity in film whether it be the amazing set pieces, heartbreaking scripts, or deep true acting there's always an intense enriching experience. However a new movie out called The Monuments Men puts a new spin on World War 2. A platoon has to save the paintings,artifacts,sculptures and of course monuments from being blown out before the Nazi's come. But this isn't a regular platoon. This is a platoon starring George Clooney,Matt Damon,Kate Blanchett,Bill Murray and much more.

However all those accomplished and superficial actors don't actually go together to make a great film. ReviewsOnTheRun complained about the premise of the film and making the film feel uncomfortable with not only a harsh story (Human lives are more important than art) but being strung together by cliches such as Kate Blanchett being the French femme-fatale. It's clear that The Monuments Men is nothing special and a 33% on RottenTomatoes and a 52 on Metacritic do not lie.

Overall do not see this movie. It is clearly a waste of time.

The Monuments Men is rated PG-13.

Critics Consensus: The LEGO Movie

Hi! We are Critics Consensus.  We post the regular critics opinion for video games and movies! Today it is the all new LEGO The Movie!

Product related movies aren't really a thing anymore. The last somewhat successful (in commercial terms that is) were The Wizard and Mac and Me. Those movies came out in the retro generation of the 80's and there hasn't been one since. Thankfully Warner Bros is using their ownage of the LEGO license for video games and movies to good use. The in development hell since 2008 The Lego Movie is finally finally out, and its downright amazing.

The Lego Movie is everything a movie like this should have. A inventive imaginative script that looks like it came out of some 7 year old kids mind (in the best way possible), impeccable voice acting from Will Ferrel,Will Arnett,(That's right theres two Wills.),Morgan Freeman and Chris Pratt and spectacular animation that looks far superior to those Lego Stop-Motion animations that popped back on Youtube as early as the test of time. As the Los Angeles Times said The LEGO Movie is fresh no other movie has been in a while and especially for an animated film. This is Pixar like quality ladies and gentlemen.

Overall see this movie.

The Lego Movie is rated PG.
