I'd take critics over your overly defensive, juvenile behaviour any day. Holy shit.

See, this is why I never get the hate for critics, because the most anyone can muster as far as an arguement against them is "Don't listen to them, think for yourselves!" yet I only ever hear that in response to negative criticism. If the critics were all loving this movie you'd be praising them and using it as evidence that the film is great... because at least one fan did when the first reviews came out positive, and said the film was actually good because those first reviews were positive.

Double standards, much?

After reading the review, you realise that was a joke on the reviewer's part, right?

After all, this movie opens with someone jerking off a bull and mistaking it's cum for milk. Yes.

This about covers what I was afraid of with the movie:

In fact, from the symphonic music that plays over the opening credits to the film’s glacially-paced origin story and the city-destroying robot fight with which it culminates, “Power Rangers” owes far more to the Marvel Cinematic Universe, the “Twilight” generation, and Michael Bay’s “Transformers” movies than it does its own source material. If not for a handful of scattered call-backs and an amusingly incongruous performance from Elizabeth Banks (who plays the evil Rita Repulsa with such go-for-broke glee that it feels like she’s fulfilling a Make-A-Wish request for a dying fanbase), it would seem as though this movie were embarrassed of its origins.
