Hollywood is where they are now all because of critics, their movies are criticize b4 it's release, that makes the film makers to step up.
If not 4 critics, Nollywood wouldn't have been where they're at now, that is 2 over 100 (my own rating).

There is a clear difference between 'criticism' and 'making mockery of', my dear friend.
