I imagine you said that as tongue in cheek, but good "code reviews" should not be feared. If it is the case it either means that environment you are coding is toxic, or that you have not made clear with your peers that code review is not about judging.
Code review should not be about being right or wrong, but as a team to provide the best work possible. People should accept that everybody make mistakes, and the goal of the environment/society is to minimize the consequences of those inevitable mistakes, not judge individuals based on arbitrary metrics.

While (good) code reviews definitely improve the software quality for a project, they can be very jarring breaks in flow. It should be fairly understandable why some of us would regard them as about as pleasant as eating a fibre supplement.
