Critically acclaimed

Critically acclaimed is attributed to a news source and means, in the case of movies, that the movie was praised by film critics, multuple. This differentiates it from the movie having a large viewing audience, a specific source of financial success. Peacock is about unatteibuted random use. I also reverted your unexplained removal of another source. -166.137.191.25 (talk) 16:30, 13 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

The phrase "critically acclaimed" is rarely used in the first sentence for articles on actual acclaimed films, take a look at Argo (2012 film), The Godfather or Gone with the Wind. --Daniel(talk) 16:39, 13 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Here are some examples of low budget documentary which were positively reviewed, they don't use the term "critically acclaimed" either: Indie Game: The Movie, Elemental (film). The issue is that the phrase "critically acclaimed" is vague, why not just say that a specific critic gave it a positive review instead? --Daniel(talk) 18:21, 13 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
