Bio: I have a twitter: https://twitter.com/flickmetictyler
I have a website too: https://flickmetic.com
If you want more of my movie opinions, pictures of a bunny AND some data analysis regarding movies (along with some other off-topic stuff occasionally), please check it out.
Don't worry, I will always post my reviews on Criticker too because I love this site more than my own family (don't tell them) and this has been an incredibly valuable resource/tool for me. Plus I appreciate all of you people who have ever reached out to me or starred my reviews. I can't quit you, Criticker, I just want to make some money at my website and hopefully someday quit my crap job.
Anything 51 and up is a recommendation, meaning you aren't wasting your time seeing it. Anything between 51-79 ranges from mediocre to very good. Anything 80+ is what I call a "Great Movie" and it's a must-see and is awesome to various degrees. Anything that's a 50 is something that I'm a fence sitter on (meaning I'm too useless to actually be able to make up my god damn mind) so it could go either way. 49 and under means you should avoid. Under 10 means I was probably raped by the movie or, at the very least, fondled. Despite the effort I've put into explaining my rating system, numbers are fairly often chosen at random (well, maybe my gut feeling) so I might actually like a movie I rated 75 more than an 85, I just really can't be bothered to go back and constantly re-do my ratings.

"If I would have played this when it was first released I would have been devastated. Coming off of No Mercy a couple years back... this is a pivot to something a little different, but, it's shallow and doesn't feel like as good as the AKI games I played before it. Sure it's colourful and kinda funny, the silliness is endearing... but there's not much here the action is boring. "

| 75 41% | INMOST (2020) - Aug 22, 2020
"From a gameplay perspective it's rather clunky. The knight sequences are some much needed action but it doesn't feel as satisfying as it could. The stranger sequences don't feel smooth, a little slow, and the little girl is painfully slow to the point of annoyance. I really wasn't into this game for the first half hour but then the story gripped me. Along with the graphics and atmosphere, the story actually is emotional and full of lots of memorable imagery and moments."

"I didn't get to play this when it first came out. The remaster has solid graphics and gameplay, but I don't think in this day and age it wows. The humour is hit or miss, sometimes nailing it but sometimes coming off like it's trying too hard."

| 80 54% | Littlewood (2020) - Aug 17, 2020
"I have little issues here and there--the movement is not as smooth as it could be, the graphics are meh--but this is still a great game. It drops you right in and you can just start building, and it keeps up that casual (but not shallow) feeling throughout, always giving you a bunch to do but also introducing new things as a steady pace."

| 70 30% | Fight Crab (2020) - Aug 04, 2020
"I'm glad games like this exist because it shows why games can offer a unique experience. I wouldn't say this is fantastic but there's a charming silliness to the combat--and thought of giant crabs and whatnot fighting each other--that I welcomed. There's a little bit of depth in that you can up stats (basic but also welcome) and buy weapons. Not something I will return to all the time but worth a look."

"Not the biggest fan of Mortal Kombat anymore because they feel clunky. This is an okay game but it still has the MK feel, so it's just not a fighter for me, despite a love of superheroes."

| 80 54% | Marvel Ultimate Alliance (2006) - Aug 01, 2020
"Co-op almost always get a higher score than maybe they deserve, and I love ARPGS. That it also has superheroes and was before a time when games felt the need to favour the MCU characters (because they are known), so they could explore whatever story they wanted. Encourages some comic book knowledge with bonuses, action is solid. Could be a little deeper but I didn't care."
