We still care about what critics have to say? When it comes to art, you like what you like. Who cares about what others think

Counter arguement: well written critical reviews can often help you find (and enjoy) unique and/or indie productions.

What if I were to tell you that critical reviews exist so people can find out if something is worth their time and money, not necessarily for vague feelings of personal validation?
