Some critics are pretty harsh in my opinion. I mean for Retro gamers which complaint how games used to be better in the past this is the best thing to come out in a long time. If you are looking for an HD colourful game which could be amazing on N64 it is awesome. If you look for a modern 3D platformer it isn't. Still I would think a 5 is pretty much the lowest you could honestly give this. Yes the humor could be netter and the camera is terrible but there is good platform gameplay to be found in this game. The Rest is kind of meh but still. 

I think the humor is part of what can push it bellow a 5 though.  As Yahtzee once said, "An attempt at commedy that falls flat is the basic unit of raw despair. A game that unfailingly produces one every five seconds is officially worse than being held hostage by Somalian pirates."  So if the humor is quite bad for you and you are already meh on the game as a whole, it could drive your opinion much lower since, like all olden day Rare games, leans quite heavily on the commedy surrounding its characters at many points.
