The only critics I ever paid attention to have sadly joined the choir invisible, and trailers often are misleading.

CGI isn't the problem here. It's that those in charge think it's the only tool in the drawer.

Then i would say it's time to give some new critics a shot and look beyond the mainstream press. I had to do that with video games. When the mainstream press gave several games perfect tens that I ended up having major problems with or found massive bugs in I was about ready to give up on video games since i had no way of knowing if the thing I was paying $60 for would even work for the whole play time. Then I started searching the web and found people like Angry Joe who shared my view that games should work out of the box and that for $60 there should be more then four hours of single player content and that has been a big help.

Sorry but it just seems to me that if we want Hollywood to stop doing something then the first step is to stop going to movies that do that thing. That is all I am saying.
