NOTE: No posts were put on Friday because I had to see Men In Black III for a new series we will have on this blog. In order for my sincere apology there will be more posts than usual for your enjoyment.
Hi! We are Critics Consensus. We post the regular daily critics opinion for the newest video games and movies! Today it is Snow White And The Huntsman a new Snow White adapted movie.
There is more Snow White movies than usual this year. Usually its 1 or 0 movies. This year well it is 2. The second one is Snow White And The Huntsman a gritty take on the fairy tale. Well critics say this movie sucks. The New Movie Thing Show said the acting was good from Chris Hemsworth and Charlize Theron but otherwise they hated the movie. ReviewsOnTheRun felt Kristen Stewart was miscast and the movie was repetitive and had a terrible script. The only really good reviews was from Roger Ebert who said it had astonishing beauty and imagination. Though Roger Ebert should remember when a script sucks the whole falls apart.
Overall if you wanted to see this movie really bad just rent it. You will not regret it.
Snow White And The Huntsman is rated PG-13.
NOTE: This Critics Consensus post reveals spoilers for the game Batman: Arkham City. If you have not finished the game, read at your own risk.
Hi! We are Critics Consensus. We post the regular critics opinion for video games and movies! Today it is the new DLC released for Batman:Arkham City.
Things have gotten a bit dimmer and darker in the Batman: Arkham City universe once Joker died. Well now Harley Quinn has a revenge scheme. Harley Quinn's Revenge has a 70 on Metacritic which is surprising considering that Batman: Arkham City has a 96. Official Xbox Magazine was disappointed with Harley Quinn's Revenge saying that it was a reheated dish of bland bat. Most critics said the same thing. While this is a fabulous game, it's repetitive, short, and too pricy. Though you can play as Robin. Batman: Arkham City was one of the best games of the 2011 but when DLC comes out that gets a 70 you start to wonder what happened.
Overall get this if you may but in 2 hours you'll be done with it and you will want more and realized that was not worth 10$ also.
Batman Arkham City: Harley Quinn's Revenge is rated T.
Hi! We are Critics Consensus. We post the regular critics opinion for video games and movies! Today it is Moonrise Kingdom Wes Anderson's latest movie.
Every year a movie comes out of nowhere, gets amazing reviews audience and critics, and probably is going to snag an Oscar. This year it is Moonrise Kingdom. Moonrise Kingdom has a 82 on Metacritic which is an amazing feat considering the amount of pissed critics out there and a 96% on Rotten Tomatoes. Well Moonrise Kingdom is a masterpiece. Salon.com exclaimed it was hilarious. The A.V Club gave it a 10\10. Other critics such as Village Voice said it was shot beautifully but pretty much every critic out there praised the films exquisite humor.
Overall Moonrise Kingdom is a must see. No matter what there is no excuse you should not see this wonderfully crafted movie.
Moonrise Kingdom is rated PG-13.
Note: Critics Consensus did not cover Moonrise Kingdom on Monday because we took a break for Memorial Day. Instead Moonrise Kingdom will be covered tomorrow.
Hi! We are Critics Consensus. We post the regular critics opinion for video games and movies! Today it is Resistance:Burning Skies the last game in the Resistance series.
Just like what happened with Uncharted:Golden Abyss, if a Playstation 3 series is having a game on the PSVita, it's made by a different company. Well this developer screwed things up. Resistance: Burning Skies has a 60 on Metacritic. Some of the less known video game journalism companies gave it a high score for example, Playstation LifeStyle and Game Trailers loved the game stating that it had great multiplayer. Well IGN thought different saying that the multiplayer was simplistic and gave it a 5.5.
Overall this is a love or hate game. Do not take the chance and waste money with this one. Yes their has not been a great shooting experience on the Vita, (Uncharted:Golden Abyss is a action adventure.) though time will come. This is just not it.
Resistance: Burning Skies is rated M.
Hi! We are Critics Consensus. We post the regular critics opinion for video games and movies! Today it is Sorcery a new motion controlled role playing game.
After the amazing sales of the Kinect, Sony forgot about their Playstation Move. Now Sony needs money. So now they release a new game for the Playstation Move with a slight twist, its an RPG. The critics consensus for Sorcery is that it is one of the best Playstation Move games but does not live up to a decent console experience. Another example of a bad side about this is that some critics such as GameInformer complained about the controls.
Overall Sorcery is not a must buy. Sorry but the extraordinary PSMove title has a long way to come.
Sorcery is rated E10+.
