Critics Consensus:Child Of Light

Hi! We are Critics Consensus.  We post the regular critics opinion for video games and movies! Today it is Ubisofts all new platformer RPG Child Of Light!!!

One of the surprise announcements from Gamescom 2013 was Ubisoft's beautiful Child Of Light. Unlike the other game they announced Fighter Within, Child Of Light was looked on with great praise and hype even before it came out due to the team working on it (Ubisoft Montreal AKA the guys who made a bunch of great Ubisoft games such as Assassin's Creed,Splinter Cell,and Watch Dogs) Let's see if the talent and the hype is really brimming in the right places.

Apparently Child Of Light is a miniature indie masterpiece. Dacotah Reviews praised it for it's welcoming to newcomers gameplay as it is not a turn based RPG or a real time one, (which sounds confusing if you ask me) IGN for the visual display and breathtaking artwork,and The Digital Fix for it's great lengthy amounts of content. Unfortunately the game has somewhat of an annoying plot as everything is a tongue twister and rhymes, but you kind of have to expect that when you're playing a game crafted like a fairy tale. And getting acclaim like one too.

Overall get this game.

Child Of Light is rated E10+. 




Critics Consensus:The Quiet Ones

Hi! We are Critics Consensus.  We post the regular critics opinion for video games and movies! Today it is an all new horror movie that's got nothing different from other ones. Ugh another boring movie weekend.

A lot of recent PG-13 rated horror movies in the past few years have been total crap.  Remember House At The End Of The Street? Or The Apparition? Or The Possession? See what I mean? So the all new Quiet Ones is hitting theaters. Not this again.

The Quiet Ones is plagued with familiar elements tried in other movies, crappy effortless acting, nothing new, innovative or even remotely scary, and having a bad script. All these elements need to be good to make an essential horror movie and it's clear that The Quiet Ones was only made for a paycheck in peoples pockets. 39% on Rotten Tomatoes don't lie.

Overall do not see this movie.

The Quiet Ones is rated PG-13.

Critics Consensus:The Other Woman

Hi! We are Critics Consensus.  We post the regular critics opinion for video games and movies! Today it is an all new romantic comedy with Kate Upton and Cameron Diaz! Hang on a sec. How could this possibly be good.

Kate Upton hasn't really been in a movie besides for some Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Compilation or some crap like that and it's obvious that a lot of people are only going to see this just for a snippet of Kate Uptons boobs in a bra or some crap like that. So when a movie is probably going to sell for that reason it probably doesn't have substance. And that's exactly what The Other Woman is.

Unsurprisingly, The Other Woman is going to be a boring, unpleasant film to watch for people that are looking for a good thoughtful film. In fact the only thing that saves this film is Leslie Mann as the Philadelphia Inquirer said. But if you don't care and wanna see a movie just like any other rom-com  with a bunch of your lady friends or whatever you probably will have have a good time.

Overall only see this movie if you want to.

The Other Woman is rated PG-13.

Critics Consensus:Brick Mansions

Hi! We are Critics Consensus.  We post the regular critics opinion for video games and movies! Today it is Paul Walkers' final completed film, Brick Mansions!!

Brick Mansions is getting a lot of hype for three reasons all for their actors. RZA is a musician and has never really had a big part in a movie before,David Belle is a celebrity known for his parkour skills,and Paul Walker is known for it being his last completed film after his death in the car crash. But does the hype equal quality? Let's find out.

Unfortunately Brick Mansions has been called dumb,noisy,clunky,and plotless by numerous critics such as Boston Globe,Movie Nation, and The Wrap. It's also been called pretty underwhelming considering the great cast and it being Paul Walker's last film however if you just turn your brain off you'll probably have a good time. Well maybe an average one.

Overall only see this if you want to.

Brick Mansions is rated PG-13.

Critics Consensus:NES Remix 2
