    Hard disagree. I liken it to walking into a steak house and then complaining there is no vegetarian option. A critic isn’t suppose to inform me of a movies clearly defined genre.

      If they’re publishing reviews in a periodical that targets a vegetarian audience, it makes a ton of sense for them to point out which meat-heavy restaurants actually have decent vegetarian options and which don’t.

      I don’t have kids, so I don’t really care if kids will like a movie. I want to know if I will like it. Reviews like this are useful for me. As a couple random examples off the top of my head, Zootopia and The Mitchells vs. the Machines are both movies I enjoyed that I would have dismissed as kids movies if it weren’t for reviews saying that they’re movies that adults will like too.
