Thanks for sharing

I hope you had a great event

Just wondering: are there any special credentials required before one becomes a "film critic"?

Yes.
Publish your first 100 film criticism pieces that are worthy
Then you become one
Cheers

Who you are writing for determines if your piece is worthy

You are in command of who deems you a critic worth reading.

Wrong.
A critics job is not to make films rather a critics job is to dissect a film

Criticism is allowed however, while they critic, I hope they would make theirs better. It is easy to critic from outside than when you are inside.
