Abstract
Film criticism is a profession that, by its nature, requires freedom and independence. However, for film distributors, criticism is an important piece in the strategies of promoting a film. Distributors respect the independence of critics, but try to positively influence their perception and reception of the film, through certain marketing instruments and strategies, as well as the provision of information.
