One Of The Worst:I, Frankenstein

Hi! We are Critics Consensus.  We post the regular critics opinion for video games and movies! Today it is Aaron Eckhart's Victorian Frankenstein reboot, I Frankenstein.
Godzilla is getting rebooted this year as well with Jurassic Park in the future and Frankenstein now. I Frankenstein is looking to be the first less than 10% score on RT of 2014 due to it's dumb CGI, cheesy acting, and no review press screenings. Well everything I just said is true and i'll just mention the fact that this has a 4% on RottenTomatoes.
Man I can predict the future! I Frankenstein is taken way too seriously as Reelviews stated,the makeup and costume design are some of the worst movies have to offer as Boston Globe said, and it's so bad it's laughable as the A.V. Club bellowed. Also it hasn't gotten a single positive review on Metacritic. I Frankenstein cant catch a break.
Overall do not see this movie.
I Frankenstein is rated PG-13.

Critics Consensus:Dead Rising 3:Operation Broken Eagle

Hi! We are Critics Consensus.  We post the regular critics opinion for video games and movies! Today it is the all new Dead Rising 3 DLC in which you have to save the president!!
Dead Rising 3 was a flagship title on the Xbox One. It was a game that showed off the Xbox One's hardware in many ways such as the amount of zombies on the screen, and no load times. It also ended up selling up a million copies which is a pretty impressive number considering the way Capcom has been going lately. So what better way that to round that good up with a nice batch of DLC? Turns out that sours the deal rather than sweetening it.
Broken Eagle is an unneeded experience to the Dead Rising franchise. Unlike Case Zero this game while not necessarily buggy or bad looking is very bland and overly expensive. The campaign only lasts a few hours as VideoGamer.com put it and while the new vehicles and weapons are nice, the price point isn't enough to justify it.
Overall do not get this game.
Dead Rising 3:Operation Broken Eagle is rated M.

Critics Consensus:Assassin's Creed Liberation HD

Hi! We are Critics Consensus.  We post the regular critics opinion for video games and movies! Today it is the remake of the acclaimed Vita game!
Assassin's Creed Liberation HD was a game that released two years ago set to bundle up the events of Assassins Creed 3 in a bow and boost Playstation Vita sales. The game was breathtaking and gorgeous with vast open worlds on the small screen. However since noone bought a Vita Ubisoft needs to their recoup their losses and what better than to release a digital HD (well not really) version?
Turns out it wasn't such a good idea in the first place. The game feels like it's slapped on at other consoles and has received no positive reviews because of this. It doesn't fix the problems the Vita version had either and looks like crap compared to other spectacular HD collections. IGN even gave it a 5. What can we say? Critics miss the naval combat.
Overall do not get this game.
Assassins Creed Liberation HD is rated M.

Critics Consensus:Jack Ryan Shadow Recruit

Hi! We are Critics Consensus.  We post the regular critics opinion for video games and movies! Today it is the return of Tom Clancy films!
Even though Tom Clancy has passed away (R.I.P) countless movies and games will be made in his honor. We haven't had a Tom Clancy movie in a while and hopefully this marks the triumphant return after his sadly passing let's find out. Also its got Chris Pine.
Thankfully Shadow Recruit isn't one of the more crappy movies that comes out this month although it's not amazing in any particular regard. It's suspenseful and engaging but a tad bit over the top for it too stumble a little. It doesn't but that doesn't mean it's exactly a critical darling with a 61%.
Overall see this movie if you want to.
Jack Ryan:Shadow Recruit is rated PG-13. 

Critics Consensus:Devil's Due

Hi! We are Critics Consensus.  We post the regular critics opinion for video games and movies! Today it is the all new Devil's Due!
You may have heard of Devil's Due after the insanely viral video that triggered 20 million+ views in a couple of days of a viral animatronic demon baby in New York City. That video was actually for the movie Devil's Due and you mine as well think that with a great advertising campaign like that the movie would be pretty rock solid. Not so much.
It's only gotten one positive review (from The Playlist) who gave it an underwhelmingly low score with a 67. They stated that there were a lot of things that ruined the scares such as crappy character development. It's also got a nobody cast and The Guardian called it an Exorcist on Snapchat. Ow that hurts.
Overall do not see this movie.
Devil's Due is rated R.
