Q: 1. ...the inane dialogue suggests each of the actors is suffering from a major case of the bends.
2. Any potential guilty pleasure is washed away in a sea of icky sermonizing.
3. I don't think there's anything wrong with an escapist adventure, but if you're rolling your eyes in disbelief at the plot and the dialogue, it makes it hard to enjoy the scenery.
4. The movie is only sometimes honest about being an exploitation film. The rest of it strives for toothless, middle-of-the-road esteem.
5. Although it works in as a pleasantly mindless thriller, the film never reaches its full potential because it can't decide what it is ultimately going to be about.
6. Into the Blue is just dumb fun in the sun.
7. Water-logged nonsense that's only fun when it's underwater.
8. It's the kind of pic where the honest undersea treasure hunters are forced to work for a drug dealer.
9. Better than it has to be.
10. Out of the murk.
Based on these individual reviews, what is the critic consensus?

A: Consensus: Even the endless shots of bronzed beach babes and buffed dudes can't keep this soggy scuba flick's plot from drowning.
1. Classic 007 -- not the best picture in the long-running series, to be sure, but a more-than-worthwhile diversion for the action-loving escapist in us all.
2. It loosely maintains the series' early wit, which may be solely attributed, perhaps, to ease with which Sean Connery inhabits the role of Bond.
3. If it doesn't live up to its illustrious predecessors...well, it still has Connery, and that's a plus in anybody's book.
4. Sean Connery is fantastic
5. The fourth Bond, marking the point at which spectacular hardware began to dominate the series. Sleek and quite fun all the same.
6. Certainly among the top five of all Bonds, and still socko.
7. The color is handsome. The scenery in the Bahamas is an irresistible lure. Even the violence is funny. That's the best I can say for a Bond film.
8. Slightly bloated Bond, with too much technology for my taste and a climactic slaughter that's a little too mindless to be much fun.
9. Relatively disappointing.
10. There's visible evidence that the reported $5.5 million budget was no mere publicity figure; it's posh all the way.
Consensus: Lavishly rendered set pieces and Sean Connery's enduring charm make Thunderball a big, fun adventure, even if it doesn't quite measure up to the series' previous heights.
Q: 1. It is full of action and unexpected plot turns, and is beautifully acted by three veteran performers and three newer ones.
2. Good enough to make you eager for Mr. Gray's next film.
3. One of The Yards' impressive elements is the way that, while it sometimes strains credibility, it conjures up an entire world -- and an entire world view -- without ever leaving Queens.
4. Beautifully cast and subtly shaded story.
5. The movie's depiction of its characters ... has the depth and complexity of real life, and the actors know how to deliver the goods.
6. An experience that won't startle or surprise you but will satisfy your need to see good actors at work.
7. Even if The Yards is no masterpiece by association, it still features two galvanizing young actors at the top of their game.
8. There's an old-fashioned steadiness that reminds me a bit of the old James Cagney pictures. And that sort of thing still works pretty well.
9. It's filled with compelling performances, steeped in lovely photography, paced with grace and, finally, able to convey gravity and moral ambiguity.
10. It comes perilously close to being something special.
Based on these individual reviews, what is the critic consensus?

A: Consensus: Featuring strong performances and direction, The Yards is a richly textured crime thriller with an authentic feel.
1. "The Secret World of Arrietty" proves that imagination still matters amid all the clamor.
2. More approachable than many anime films, it's a sweet, gentle G-rated story with just the right blend of heart and humor.
3. The visual details are inventive, and the animation - particularly the colors - is lovely.
4. We expect more from the studio that brought us Hayao Miyazaki's Spirited Away and Howl's Moving Castle.
5. All the hallmarks of a Studio Ghibli production exist in The Secret World of Arrietty -- there's the gumdrop-eyed young protagonist, the leisurely pace, the lush, nearly velvety animation and its casual surrealism.
6. No other animation studio, even our beloved Pixar, can quite replicate the magic, wonder and weirdness [of Studio Ghibl].
7. The round-up of the best movies of 2012 -- animated or not -- starts here.
8. It's rare to see a children's film as thoughtful as this, and it's a breath of fresh air.
9. While not my favorite Studio Ghibli film, I think The Secret World of Arrietty is well worth checking out with the rest of the family.
10. Doesn't possess the epic scope fans might be used to from regal Ghibli offerings, but it retains a lovely spirit of adventure and alliance, forming a modest but sublime picture worthy of the exalted brand name.
Consensus: Visually lush, refreshingly free of family-friendly clatter, and anchored with soulful depth, The Secret World of Arrietty lives up to Studio Ghibli's reputation.
Q: 1. Generally Jenkins shows few rookie jitters, and she got excellent performances from the rest of her cast.
2. It covers some serious topics about adolescence, but it does it with a wink and a knowing nod; some things that are tragic when you're 14 are quite funny in hindsight.
3. This zany comedy written and directed by Tamara Jenkins is filled with humorous takes on sexuality in the 1970s.
4. Ultimately it's all a bit predictable -- the cyclical story more or less ends where it begins -- but it's nevertheless a charming and delightful romp, with keen observations about character, time and place.
5. What lifts this brash comedy above the vulgar herd is Tamara Jenkins in a heartfelt feature debut as writer and director.
6. It's hard for me to sympathize with people I don't like, and except for Lyonne's character I didn't like anyone in the story.
7. Lyonne is a natural, and clearly a young actress to watch.
8. Terrific performances from Alan Arkin and Natasha Lyonne dominate this engrossing look at a financially strapped Jewish family trying to survive despite their penury.
9. There's an alchemy that can transform personal experience into a great film, but it was nowhere nearby when Tamara Jenkins wrote and directed this lacklustre first feature.
10. Refreshingly real.
