It's super fun to nitpick things from time to time but you can't seriously allow yourself to think that a piece of fiction is required to have zero plotholes and inconsistencies.
Those things only really become problems when they ruin the feel or overall effect of the story.
Yes most time travel stories for example won't make perfect sense. But does that matter? When criticizing a story that "makes no sense" pure logic itself isn't the main thing you should be focusing on unless the story itself instructs you to focus on that.
As a writer I take a lot of inspiration from surrealism and write surrealist type fiction from time to time. Surrealist fiction by nature is confusing and illogical and tries to force the reader to challenge their own logical perception of reality, emotion, politics, etc. Even when I am explicitly writing surrealist fiction though I often get feedback like "this story made no logical sense". Yeah. Because it's surrealism. That's kind of the whole point. What do you have to say about it beyond that?
When criticizing something, I think it's important to meet it where it is. One cannot judge a romantic comedy by the exact same metrics that they would judge a cookbook. As a writer and as a reader I am fine with criticism, but what I am not fine with is every piece of media being treated like it's some form of logic puzzle that must make cohesive perfect sense under intense scrutiny.
Yes, a time paradox was created when that character did xyz. And? Does that detract from the storytelling? Did it ruin your enjoyment of it? Why? Does that even matter in a story like this? If so, what does that say to you about the story itself? Where exactly did it fail in its goals? What is it perpetuating that you wish it wouldn't? Why? Is it genuinely a bad storytelling decision or do you just not like this type of story?
Criticism is fine. It keeps the conversation around media fresh and when done correctly it gives creators the ability to reflect and improve and audiences the opportunity to make informed decisions. However if your criticism is only ever about surface level logical inconsistencies and barely noticeable plotholes, that's not really doing anyone any favors.
tldr Cinemasins is funny from time to time but don't let it rot your brain.
