Taika Waititi has called critics “sad lost souls” after ‘KLARA AND THE SUN’ became his lowest rated film ever on Rotten Tomatoes.
“I haven't read a review of anything aimed at me or my peers in almost 15 years. But I do listen to the people.
So this Halloween, let's spare a thought for those sad lost souls who couldn't achieve their dreams of becoming artists, and thus became critics. The same people who also hated Jojo Rabbit!
Irrelevant. Out of touch. Obsolete. In the bin.”
