Making a movie is hard work. It requires time and heart from so many people.
Worst lists are mean spirited and cruel.@Variety, there's no need for this. Please stop.

“Worst of” lists are inherently mean-spirited and unnecessary. Much like the film critics who create and contribute to them. This adds nothing of value to the discourse and serves only as a petty insult to the hundreds of creatives who worked hard to bring these films to life.

What I'm seeing is writers who have never made a film in their life and don't know how hard it is to make one. What I think they meant was "Here are some films that came out this year but these weren't my taste, however congrats filmmakers"

I think it’s fine for critics to take pleasure in film analysis, whatever their take is. But the “worst” is ridiculous. That’s subjective. I loved a lot of these films. I don’t think this is needs to be a part of how we view or partake in art. It’s cheap and unnecessary

Meanwhile his colleague chimed in, tearing shreds off a selection of other 2022 movies.

The article includes something of a disclaimer in its intro — it’s unclear if it was always worded this way or if it was edited following the backlash. “When film critics hand out negative judgments, we’re often called ‘mean’,” it began. “And if that were actually the case, our list of the year’s worst movies would be the meanest thing we do.
