Critics Consensus: LEGO Batman 2: DC Super Heroes

Hi! We are Critics Consensus. We post the regular daily critics opinion for the newest video games and movies! Today it is LEGO Batman 2: DC Super Heroes.
Last year 3 LEGO games came out. This year is looking the same if the Wii U comes out this year. This LEGO game though had much controversy because the characters talk instead of just making noises and gesticulation like "Hmm" and mumbling. This game has a 79 on Metacritic and is having much critical acclaim. (Besides from Official Xbox Magazine which hated the game.) Guardian called it the best LEGO game in years and Official Xbox Magazine UK said it was the strongest LEGO game yet. Who knew? Adding an open-world, voice acting, and lots of content really helped the LEGO series.
Overall get this game. If you don't like LEGO's and are a mature gamer rent it. You will still have ton's of fun.

LEGO Batman 2: DC Super Heroes is rated E10+.

Critics Consensus: Your Sister's Sister

Hi! We are Critics Consensus. We post the regular daily critics opinion for the newest video games and movies! Today it is Your Sister's Sister a new independent rom-com drama.
This is weird. Instead of big Hollywood releases getting critical acclaim small independent movies are but this time it's continuing a trend. Your Sister's Sister has not gotten a score from a critic below a 50 but the thing is only The New York Observer and The A.V. Club gave it a 50. All the other reviews were 60+ and there was 21 of them. This movie has excellent acting,has a  funny script,and enjoyable even though it has a few characters. 
Overall,you should see this movie. You can't go wrong with MovieLine, Entertianment Weekly, indieWIRE,TIME,Chicago Reader, and The Guardian liking the same movie after all.

Your Sister's Sister is rated R.

Critics Consensus: Babel Rising

Hi! We are Critics Consensus. We post the regular daily critics opinion for the newest video games and movies! Today it is Babel Rising a port of the iPhone game Babel Rising.
Well here's a funny joke that's not funny to Ubisoft. Ubisoft's Babel Rising is more of like Babel Falling to critics. Literally. The highest score was a 62 from 3DJeugos. Ouch. Destructiod complained about bare-bones gameplay and OXM (Official Xbox Magazine) complained the Kinect controls were fussy. At least it has interesting mechanics like AusGamers said. That's right that's what the only good thing about this game was. Interesting Mechanics!
Overall skip this one. If you really want it buy the demo. That way you will not waste money.


Babel Rising is rated E10+.

Critics Consensus: That's My Boy

Hi! We are Critics Consensus. We post the regular daily critics opinion for the newest video games and movies! Today it is That's My Boy a new Adam Sandler comedy.
Adam Sandler is another one of those actors whose critical career is shooting itself in the foot. Multiple times. That's why I was excited for That's My Boy thinking it might be good and be one of the few OK-Good Adam Sandler movies there is. Sadly not. That's My Boy is not funny at all. Film.com said that a mother being eaten by bears is funnier than this and The Washington Post said that it was like the script was written by a thirteen year old.
Overall this is another crappy movie weekend. Rock Of Ages then That's My Boy. Do not see this. Eating paint is better than this movie.


That's My Boy is rated R.

Critics Consensus: Gravity Rush

Hi! We are Critics Consensus. We post the regular daily critics opinion for the newest video games and movies! Today it is Gravity Rush a new PSVita puzzle platformer with a gravity spinoff.
Sony's silent surprise is here. Gravity Rush it is called. Let's get on it here the Playstation Vita has been struggling a bit. Walking over stones and falling into the ground. Well when gets a 10 out of 10 from Digital Spy, Gamereactor Denmark, and gameblog.fr you know it's good. Gamespot did complain about dull combat and Metro Game Central was made at it's flaws but when a game offers an amazing overall gameplay experience including Gamereactor Denmark stating it as a Game Of The Year contender the game is magical.
Overall get this. This is the reason to get a PSVita.


'Gravity Rush is rated T.
