1. The repeated lifting of material from other films eventually sinks this one into mediocrity.
2. Harlin delivers all the thrills, explosive action and sheer gore that audiences have come to expect!
3. It'll get your date to jump into your lap, and that's really what a movie like this is all about, right?
4. Deep Blue Sea is an enjoyable little B-movie, mean and gory and single-minded in its pursuit of cheap thrills.
5. Director Renny Harlin uses sound well and moves that camera around with lean, mean, visceral clout.
6. Strangely monotonous, with distressingly few chuckles.
7. A corny cornucopia of outrageous guffaws and giggles topped with spine-chilling thrills.
8. Deep Blue Sea is an example of how expert action filmmaking and up-to-the-minute visual effects can transcend a workmanlike script and bring excitement to conventional genre material.
9. The emotional edge in Harlin's direction [is] unquestionably as impressive as his action expertise is.
10. One of the shrewder, more efficient terror machines that's followed Spielberg into the water.
Consensus: Aside from a few thrills, Deep Blue Sea is unoriginal and unintelligent.
Q: 1. The glimpses we see of them and their all-too-knowing interactions with their hellish surroundings are somehow both too much, and not nearly enough.
2. Filmmakers Zana Briski and Ross Kauffman find intermittent beauty without pushing our sentimental buttons. But the title promises more than the movie delivers.
3. It brings us to a place we'd never see otherwise, gives us a poignant lesson in the difficulties of saving those who seem doomed, and reminds us how beauty can exist even in the ugliest of places and circumstances.
4. Before our eyes, Briski confronts and answers questions of exploitation that can shadow profilers of the downtrodden.
5. This is the kind of film that reminds you of what movies, at their best, are capable of.
6. While this moving, hopeful documentary is credited to Briski and partner Ross Kaufman, its most touching moments come directly from the lenses of the kids themselves.
7. It may sound like the most prehistoric of clichés, but Briski and Kaufman's astonishing documentary confirms that art feeds the soul.
8. Some of these images will stay with you, seared into your mind, dispatches from a desperate world that will break your heart.
9. Will break your heart, then warm it up and leave you with that 7-Up longing to know what happens next to Zana's kids.
10. A documentary that changed the lives both of subjects and filmmakers, it will reorder the worldview of whoever sees it.
Based on these individual reviews, what is the critic consensus?

A: Consensus: A powerful and uplifting documentary.
1. We know what comic book movies are capable of being. They can have greatness in them. Fantastic Four has nothing more than okay-ness.
2. Before the inevitable and surprisingly anticlimactic battle with Doom, we are treated to two extreme-sports demonstrations, several training montages, [and] an ill-advised love triangle.
3. If I were to put the same amount of effort into my review that the folks behind Fantastic Four expended trying to entertain you, the rest of this page would be blank.
4. Weighted down with a turgid story and utterly middling special effects, The Fantastic Four isn't likely to be Stan Lee's favorite of the nearly dozen Marvel Comics adaptations either out already or on their way.
5. Fantastic Four is left passing off dopey comedy and performances as playfulness.
6. If exposure to cosmic rays made all women look like Jessica Alba, then every Lifetime movie should glow green.
7. Heaven forbid a summer blockbuster embrace its popcorn-munching appeal and rescue the industry from the 2005 box office slump.
8. Superheroes are only as good as the supervillain, so let's get these forces clashing early on and often.
9. Fantastic Four is a special-effects extravaganza, but its plot is mired in issues that only schoolboys care about.
10. Along the lines of such tongue-in-cheek action films as “Sahara” and “National Treasure.”
Consensus: Marred by goofy attempts at wit, subpar acting, and bland storytelling, Fantastic Four is a mediocre attempt to bring Marvel's oldest hero team to the big screen.
Q: 1. An odd hybrid that lacks both the rambunctious energy of a live performance and the expressionistic pull of a great movie musical.
2. A rousing alternative in a marketplace packed with noisy, special-effects-heavy sequels, Hairspray is the best and most entertaining movie adaptation of a stage musical so far this century.
3. No winking, no mugging -- just earnest, wholesome, knock-your-socks-off fun.
4. It's a toe-tapper to make your forget sashaying pirates, comic-book heroes, robot Camaros and cartoons. This is the movie event of the summer.
5. Though not as scabrous, as sharp or even as musically memorable as John Waters' original, it retains much of his filthy, big-hearted sensibility.
6. Offering plenty of body and a lot of lift, Hairspray gels kitsch styling with show-stopping tunes to mould a memorable musical.
7. Hairspray exceeded my expectations and, while it isn't my favorite movie of the pool-and-beach season, it's enjoyable enough to earn a recommendation.
8. This bright, bouncy movie musical is a happy surprise, a candy-colored ode to outsiders that left me with a big grin.
9. Hairspray proves that summer movie fun needn't be witless and/or soulless.
10. All of that is just done so well, and you just love the spirit of this.
Based on these individual reviews, what is the critic consensus?

A: Consensus: Hairspray is an energetic, wholly entertaining musical romp; a fun Summer movie with plenty of heart. Its contagious songs will make you want to get up and start dancing.
1. When Bay eventually delivers his precision-choreographed action, he elevates the strike above the schmaltz and nearly achieves epic status.
2. The kind of crap that deserves to be slapped silly.
3. Bay's overdirection... makes Hallmark-card images of the young lovers against backgrounds of lush vegetation and fiery explosions, and the end results are oddly remote, lacking any real emotion.
4. A lot of people will rightfully be crowing about the technically astonishing battle scenes that take up over an hour of screen time. But getting there is a cliche-ridden, often laughable chore.
5. The central romance of Pearl Harbor is serviceable enough, and Affleck and Beckinsale really bring it home.
6. Surprise attacks should be swift and penetrating. Neither adjective applies to Pearl Harbor.
7. Would have made a good silent movie. In fact, almost all of this film would work better if the actors just didn't open their mouths.
8. Strangely, though, after all of the movie's manipulations and the big events, we don't get a sense at the end that we've accompanied the characters through a journey.
9. Remember Pearl Harbor? We will, but, sadly, for the missed opportunities and not for the reasons the filmmakers intended.
10. There's nothing more debilitating than filmmakers who do not trust their own source material.

Consensus: Pearl Harbor tries to be the Titanic of war movies, but it's just a tedious romance filled with laughably bad dialogue. The 40 minute action sequence is spectacular though.
