Critics Consensus: Bel Ami

Hi! We are Critics Consensus. We post the regular daily critics opinion for the newest video games and movies! Today it is Bel Ami a new historical drama (similar to For Greater Glory) about a guy who uses sex and seducing to gain power in where he lives.

You can not talk about this movie without Robert Pattinson. The Twilight superstar Robert Pattinson has now starred in a limited movie again. Well the good thing is he made the movie watchable. Actually that's kind of a bad thing. Village Voice, Empire, Variety, and The Guardian all gave this movie a 4.0 because of mediocre acting, boring scenes, and overstuffed with cliche.
Overall please don't see this. If you are a fan of Robert Pattinson see the Twilight movies again.


Bel Ami is rated R.

My Personal Opinion: Madagascar 3: Europe's Most Wanted

NOTE: This is different than the posts we have on this blog because instead of the critics opinion this is my opinion. This time it is Madagascar 3.

Somewhere, somehow I have seen all the Madagascar movies in theaters. Not like I'm a big fan of them but it happens one way or another. I loved Madagascar hated Madagascar 2 and well Madagascar 3 is if you got the first movie and the second movie and put them in a blender. It's just slightly better than mediocre. The movie is really hilarious within the first act and then I was like why am I not laughing? The ending is OK I guess and the plot is as thin as a toothpick. This feels like a rent for me and I will probably not see Madagascar 4 now.
Overall Madagascar 3 is getting a 5.0 from me.
