I hate it when someone just straight-up ignores what’s there — one of the most frustrating things I’ve ever watched was an interview in which an author spent at least ten minutes explaining that her novel was about a woman whose personal life is suffering due to stress from a particularly high-pressure job, but the interviewer thought (or had been told) that it was about a woman bored with her marriage, and he would not depart from that script even with the actual author politely disagreeing and reading excerpts from the book.

Then there’s the type of review where someone apparears to have slept through the movie and then complains it had no plot to speak of.
