* ReviewsAreTheGospel: As explained in the FanDumb section, there are overzealous fans who will take the videos at face value and use it as evidence against a movie dislike. The Cinemasins crew have acknowledge this MisaimedFandom and for extra irony, they even stated they ''loved'' ''Film/TheAmazingSpiderman'', their very first video.

Of course, that kind of HypocriticalHumor could well be intentional, crossing this over into FridgeBrilliance.

* CriticalResearchFailure: Several. Due to the nature of the show (ie. finding as many sins as possible to fill a comedy video up), quite possibly every single video has him critique things that are explainable; some, of course, he really does think are mistakes, but are not. For example:
** ''[[DieHard A Good Day To Die Hard]]'': Yes, Moscow and Cairo really do have comparable temperatures at certain points of the year (Moscow gets quite hot in the summer, even if the winters are freezing); yes, there really is English writing on many cars in Russia (a lot of American cars are imported and sold there); yes, there is a pool in Chernobyl (in fact it looks like the actually filmed ''in'' Chernobyl); no, you are not likely to get radiation poisoning if you go to Chernobyl (its more radioactive than most places, but the levels have not been lethal or even that dangerous for years- at least, as long as you only take a short visit and stay out of certain areas).

* HateDumb: Goes both ways. On the one hand, many people who don't like the videos seem not to know its a comedy series, despite many of their "sins" clearly being gags (eg. "no lapdance scene"; "GwyenthPaltrow"; "LiamNeeson not killing anybody in this scene"). On the other hand, sometimes they ''do'' nitpick, or bring up supposed plot holes or mistakes that actually have an explanation or don't really need one.
