Like anything, Criterion is not immune to criticism. The lack of focus for non-white and non-male directors -- especially [[https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2020/08/20/movies/criterion-collection-african-americans.html Black filmmakers]] -- has been scrutinized since the 1990s (particularly in light of the fact that many black-directed films from Criterion's [=LaserDisc=] library have not been reissued in their DVD and Blu-ray lines), seen as meshing poorly with Criterion's reputation as a near-definitive library of the most important films in cinema history. The fact that Criterion is oriented most strongly towards physical media, with many of their titles being locked to a physical format, also receives criticism from those who feel it erects an unnecessarily high barrier of entry, given the greater costs and setup requirements compared to digital streaming. Among videophile physical media enthusiasts, there was consternation that Criterion didn't start releasing 4K Ultra HD discs until 2021, five years into the format's lifespan; by then some of their titles already received such releases from other home video labels. (Notably, ''Film/ThePiano'' and ''Film/MenaceIISociety'' were among Criterion's inaugaral six 4K titles, pointing towards the company's efforts to increase representation.) And some folks feel that Criterion sometimes loses focus by admitting more mainstream-friendly titles, a practice which goes all the way back to the [=LaserDisc=] era (that their final LD release was ''Film/{{Armageddon}}'' is still infamous). All these caveats notwithstanding, Criterion still maintains a high reputation among most cinephiles, and few will deny its ''massive'' legacy and influence as the ''de facto'' industry leader in the home media market.
