When critics rate movies, they rate them on a number of things... plot, dialogue, acting, directing; etc - all tangible items
I can tell the difference between a shit movie (Transformers) and a quality movie (There Will Be Blood)
However, I have issue when critics apply the same type of ratings to music
Rolling Stones top 100 list for example
For me, music is something you either like or not and it's much more subjective than movies
Does anyone else feel like music shouldn't be rated the same way movies and tv are rated?
To critics, A Day in the Life is the best Beatles song.. but what makes it the greatest? Or Tool's Aenima album vs Lateralus .. I found Lateralus to be the better album
Bottom line - music is too subjective to be rated on a scale like other forms of entertainment
