Critics Consensus:Argo

Hi! We are Critics Consensus. We post the regular critics opinion for video games and movies! Today it is Argo a new suspenseful drama directed by Ben Affleck.

When I first saw Argo';s metascore I said "Holy "(Insert Swear Here"). It was the highest wide release movie of the year with an 86. The number avatar had a footnote next to it that stated "Universal Acclaim". You might ask why so high well it is because it has a amazingly fantastic screenplay as stated by the San Fransisco Chronicle,New York Post loved the movies elegant humor,USA Today praised the performances,Box Office Magazine said that this was Ben Affleck's best directing, and last but not least Aisle Seat cherished how the story was explained in great detail.
Overall stop reading this post and go see Argo. Better yet bring a friend.

Argo is rated R.

Critics Consensus:Sinister

Hi! We are Critics Consensus. We post the regular critics opinion for video games and movies! Today it is Sinister a new original horror movie.

When the reviews for Sinister first came out they were at a 100% approval rating. Now it is more of a low 60% approval rating. As more critics chimed in such as Box Office Magazine who complained of it's cliches that are derived from other horror movies or Washington Post with an F grade, saying that the lead character in Sinister is of low intelligence and so is the movie. Not to say that Sinister is a bad movie, those are just the worst things in it. For example Village Voice praised newcomer Ethan Hawke's performance as Ellison and HollywoodChicago called it the best horror movie of 2012.
Overall only see this movie if you want to. If you are light hearted to scares please bring a diaper or something. Even if you hate the movie it will scare you.

Sinister is rated R.

Critics Consensus: XCOM Enemy Unknown

Hi! We are Critics Consensus. We post the regular critics opinion for video games and movies! Today it is a remake of the beloved franchise XCOM.

XCOM: Enemy Unknown had a troubled history. It was supposed to come out in 2011 and be a first person shooter, then it was split into two games under fan demand (one strategy, one FPS.) The first person shooter is supposed to come out next year but only time will tell about that. Though for the strategy game, Guardian called it one of the best games of the year, Game Informer and VideoGameszone.de praised the dialogue choices,Canadian Online Gamers praised the visuals,and lastly Planet Xbox 360 stated that this is how you bring a franchise back from the dead.

Overall please get this game. If you are an XCOM fan run to the store now. Unless it is midnight.

XCOM: Enemy Unknown is rated M.

Critics Consensus: Fable: The Journey

Hi! We are Critics Consensus. We post the regular critics opinion for video games and movies! Today it is a new Fable game endorsed with the Kinect.

Peter Molyneux is usually tossed around as a joke for hardcore gamers for never delivering promises. The Kinect has been usually tossed around by hardcore gamers for never delivering promises. Well what happens when you mix the two of those together? A 59 on Metacritic, GameInfomer complaining that it makes you feel like you are drunk,the game being called boring by Everyeye.it,and lastly being called a failure by Metro Game Central. so overall the only good thing about this game is good use of the Kinect.
Overall only get this game if you are a hardcore Fable fan.

Fable: The Journey is rated T.

Critics Consensus: The Oranges

Hi! We are Critics Consensus. We post the regular critics opinion for video games and movies! Today it is The Oranges a new indie drama comedy.

Oranges to most people are yummy, delicious and good. Sadly this movie is the opposite. The Oranges is about drama for a family who lives on Orange Drive. According to The Miami Herald, Slant Magazine,The Playlist and Time Out New York, The Oranges has poorly written dialogue,a bad script and according to a Rotten Tomatoes Critics Consensus, is just not funny at ALL. The only good thing about The Oranges is the acting which the Boston Globe praised.

Overall only see this movie if you really really want to. Do not tell me I did not warn you.

The Oranges is rated R.
