Q: 1. Any children's movie so giddily entertaining and inventive can be forgiven for occasional lapses in logic, plotting and acting that may perturb adult viewers.
2. It's ironic that, for a 3-D flick, Spy Kids 3-D is rather flat.
3. A pale shadow of the first Spy Kids, as emotionally barren and irritating as the video game it takes place within.
4. The story is flimsy, simple-minded and often nonsensical, compounded by some obtrusively abysmal supporting cast choices.
5. The film itself is practically a Saturday-matinee tribute to the Atari Hall of Fame -- from Tron to Q*bert -- and almost reproduces the druggy, hyperactive 2-D world of Nintendo.
6. The game may be over, but I'm sure the sequels will live on - as long as they stay fresh and fun, that's not such a bad thing.
7. The story is tedious, and the dialogue can sound hokey to adult ears.
8. While there's a certain rough charm to the handmade virtual reality world [Rodriguez] creates, the movie still has the undeniable drawback that it causes a headache.
9. The clever action and throwaway flights of fancy come close to making it worth the 3-D headache.
10. More fun that the second movie.
Based on these individual reviews, what is the critic consensus?

A: Consensus: The movie will be found wanting if one is not taken in by the 3-D visuals.
1. Blazingly good cinema...the performances first rate, the action, never lets up
2. The three separate elements don't quite gel, but the overall experience is still a fine bit of moviemaking.
3. Howard delivers exactly the kind of thoroughly entertaining commercial enterprise you might expect, only this one comes chock-full of breathtaking pyrotechnics allowing the ridiculous posturing of the two leads to take a back seat.
4. The spectacular fire sequences, which must have been hellish to film, are powerfully enveloping on screen, thanks especially to the eerie effect of the title.
5. Mocked by some, for reasons I can't fathom, I find it to be Howard's strongest film. Excellent cast.
6. Howard's burning ode to firefighters and the professional and personal lives they hope to conquer with devotion and defiance. A drama that convincingly spreads itself like a roaring blaze.
7. The fire sequences are stunning, and the build-up to them, complete with blaring sirens and bellowed conversations, has an aggressive immediacy.
8. Exciting firefighter adventures with all-star cast.
9. An extremely old-fashioned tale about heroic firefighters (rival siblings...) with some good special effects, this is a typical Ron Howard picture in its middlebrow sensibility and sentimentality.
10. simultaneously overblown and threadbare
Consensus: It's not particularly deep, but Backdraft is a strong action movie with exceptional special effects.
Q: 1. Although more gimmicky than From Russia with Love, this film is equally as entertaining.
2. If spy-action films ever had a classic, then this is it.
3. If it is not a great film, it is a great entertainment, and contains all the elements of the Bond formula that would work again and again.
4. Possibly the ultimate James Bond. Great villains, gadgets, action and all around adventure.
5. Q brings out the Aston Martin for the first time, and Shirley Bassey shatters the speakers with the consummate Bond song.
6. These Bond capers were the prototypes and set the gold standard for dozens of fantasy thrillers that followed. [Review cowritten by Henry G. Belot]
7. Probably the best of the gadget-filled 007 extravaganzas.
8. Most think it's the best Bond. I favor some of the more recent ones, but this is classic stuff.
9. How can you top characters with names like Odd Job and Pussy Galore? The best of the Bond films.
10. The most consistent and entertaining of the Bond series.
Based on these individual reviews, what is the critic consensus?

A: Consensus: Goldfinger is where James Bond as we know him comes into focus - it features one of 007's most famous lines ("A martini. Shaken, not stirred") and a wide range of gadgets that would become the series' trademark.
1. a watchable, but otherwise unremarkable flick.
2. Miami Vice is pure Miami Vice. It's pure Michael Mann. And most importantly of all, Colin Farrell is pure Don Johnson
3. Not the film we were promised but no shame either, Miami Vice is loaded with just enough thrills and spills to keep us glued to our seats.
4. Mann wants to distance his film from the Reagan-era consumerist fantasy of the TV show that inspired it, but all he does is put a dour veneer of visual grime over the same attitudes.
5. If you're looking for the Don Johnson version of Sonny Crockett, you're better off looking at television re-runs.
6. Many critics have found in Mann's films an excess of macho bluster. I can only say his power and exuberant self-belief expose the indentikit dullness of a hundred other meagre film-makers working with similar material.
7. Miami Vice isn't perfect, but it is perfectly mesmerizing.
8. Spearheaded by the compelling paring of Colin Farrell and Jamie Foxx, Miami Vice delivers serious action, dangerous liaisons and spectacular locations in a tense and highly anticipated drama adapted from the 80s TV series.
9. There isn't much real chemistry between Farrell and Fox, or even Farrel and Li, so we really don't believe much of what's going on.
10. Thrums with a raw, fierce, jazzy soul.
Consensus: Miami Vice is beautifully shot but the lead characters lack the charisma of their TV series counterparts, and the underdeveloped story is well below the standards of Michael Mann's better films.
Q: 1. Una digna obra, con un suspenso magistralmente llevado, que se gana por completo la recomendación pero que no llega a ser tan buena como prometía.
2. Yes, it's grappling with grown-up subject matter, but did The Interpreter have to be quite so lifeless?
3. Pollack, has confused subtle with muddled and so the film inhabits [a] middle ground between complex and convoluted.
4. Subversive, maybe, but hardly explosive.
5. The smart political thriller; a classic breed of cinema that faces permanent extinction thanks to soulless efforts like this one.
6. An old pro's demonstration of how a politically relevant big-release flick can still effectively be done.
7. As far removed from the glory days of 1970s political thrillers as many diplomats are from the suffering which they're presented with. Lost in translation indeed.
8. A polished and preposterous thriller, The Interpreter offers two excellent actors a chance to show off, but it's not half as important as it thinks it is.
9. [A] reasonably effective and old-school geopolitical thriller.
10. Preachy about forgiveness but still an intelligent thriller.
Based on these individual reviews, what is the critic consensus?

A:
Consensus: A polished and intelligent thriller, though marred by plot implausibilities.
