It will always be this way. Movie / music reviewers are in love with the artform itself, and view each movie / album as an artefact through that lens. Joe sixpack wants to see some exciting or funny stuff, or some heartwarming stuff, and to see some baddies get their comeuppence for once, or to briefly live vicariously through some sort of heroic or inspirational archetype. Viewers don't even have to disagree with reviewers in order to ignore their advice. They're just not looking to bask in the wonder of the artform, but to be taken on an emotional journey.
