Yeah but critics have to say good films are shit and shit films are good, because that way we think they're really smart and have some god-level insight that we're too dumb to perceive, so we keep giving them money to be smart while we carry on enjoying the shit films.

If they said good films were good and shit films were shit then we'd all go "well duh" and not think they're doing anything useful.
