Critics Consensus:Fuse

Hi! We are Critics Consensus. We post the regular critics opinion for video games and movies! Today it is a new game from Insomniac!
A while ago, more appropriately an E3 ago, Insomniac announced a new game titled Overstrike. It was supposed to be a run and gun with a T rating. Then they threw it in the garbage and made Fuse.
Maybe that's why Fuse has a 63. It has a few interesting mechanics like the Mag Shield which SmoshGames praised but the game is short and is only useful when you have friends over and beer.  It's also a little bit tedious and gets really repetitive as Game Informer said. 
Overall if you can handle that give this a try.
Fuse is rated M.

Critics Consensus:Remember Me

Hi! We are Critics Consensus. We post the regular critics opinion for video games and movies! Today it is Remember Me Capcom's new IP.
Remember Me is insanely promising. It's a new IP from a struggling developer and it's got an amazing and original plot. However there is always the however's. And Remember Me has a lot of those.
Remember Me tries too hard as IGN said. It constantly guides you during the climbing sections and the fighting is repetitive and tedious as VideoGamerTV said. The characters are also kind of absurd as Metro GameCentral said. The game is beautiful and would be immersive if they actually paid attention to their design.
Overall only get this if you want to.
Remember Me is rated M. 

My Personal Opinion:GRID 2

Hi! We are Critics Consensus. We post the regular critics opinion for video games and movies! Today it is me reviewing GRID 2.
I LOVE Codemasters. Well mostly love them. Operation Flashpoint and Leisure Suit Larry are not the best franchises but when it comes to racing Codemasters succeeds at all of it. That's why I was excited for GRID 2.
The game is pretty much all focused on drifting. Which is kind of bad and kind of good. The gameplay is mostly pitch perfect besides for the fact that the AI can get in the way between somethings. Trying to cause a chain reaction crash will not work like it did in DiRT 3 because this is entirely different. It's a fun and amazing game. It just should be open-world.
Overall get this if you want to.
GRID 2 8.25\10
GRID 2 is rated E.

Critics Consensus:Now You See Me

Hi! We are Critics Consensus. We post the regular critics opinion for video games and movies! Today it is Now You See Me a new heist movie!

Now You See Me looks cool,interesting and promising. And then you realize it's made by the same guy who made Clash Of The Titans and the Transformer movies. Then your expectations fall from the Empire State Building.

Now You See Me's actors have barely any screen time, as ReviewsOnTheRun stated. It might be somewhat enjoyable as ReelViews said but I would not recommend it. It was called a rare form of bad by Ben Bolea so you might want to think about that.
Overall see this if you really want to.
Now You See Me is rated PG-13.

Critics Consensus:After Earth

Hi! We are Critics Consensus. We post the regular critics opinion for video games and movies! Today it is M Night Shamalamadingdong's new movie. Why am I calling him that? You will see later in the post.

You wanna know what's funny? M Night Shyamalan's new movie looked promising. Too bad it's just Will Smith's son Jaden Smith running around from weird mutant creatures in action set pieces. 
I'm spoiling the movie for you because it's just that bad. That's all your seeing for two hours as Jeremy Jahns stated. It's really boring after twenty minutes. It's just a giant Vine but slightly different. If you don't trust me. Read Film.coms review.
Overall After Earth is a movie about a destroyed Earth. This is one of the things that destroyed it.
After Earth is rated PG-13.
