It was a great channel before they realized how much ad money they can make if every video is 20-40 minutes long. The older ones that ran 8-10 minutes were fantastic because it didn’t feel like they were grasping at straws for every nitpick.
That’s the thing though, CinemaSins’ nitpicks are muddied with things the creators got wrong. The nitpicks are written by people who are either dishonest or lack object permanence.
CinemaSins is still the king of “unwarranted bad” recaps.
What about CinemaWins?
I hate CinemaSins. I get that it’s their shtick, but to nitpick literally everything for the sake of nitpicking gets boring eventually.
CinemaWins has the same shtick, but reversed into positivity, which I find much more agreeable.

Of course there’s a classic (6 years old now) video essay about it: https://youtu.be/ELEAsGoP-5I
