We survive tons of shitty movies, but this one the creators and talent are determined to shame people for not celebrating.
It flared back up this week because it's getting screened for critics and there are clearly some movie critics, many from questionable sources, who are being cheerleaders rather than objective reviewers.
In case you missed it, the title of the 'review' on uproxx I posted above is
Read it and tell me how it measures in the tradition of Ebert or Kael.

To be fair, the creators and talent have been the subject of a lot of hate simply based on casting four women. Before the first, admittedly bad trailer came out. I agree however, that the review you posted is clickbait garbage.
It's not just people opposed to casting women, though. I'm even accustomed to knee jerk reactions. That's what the internet is for. It's the level to which it has risen with this movie. Reviewers releasing reviews just to say they refuse to see it? What?! How ****ing pathetic is that?
