Headline: Taika Waititi labelled 'bitter' after Instagram rant
Caption: The Klara and the Sun director found himself under fire for his strong opinions about movie critics. Taika, 51, was slammed as "tone-deaf" and "bitter" by social media users who were unimpressed by his hot take, in which he declared the "lost souls" who became movie critics to be "Irrelevant. Out of touch. Obsolete" and needing to be "In the bin". The movie, estimated to have cost around $44 million (£33 million) to make, pulled in just $705,000 at the box office (£523,000) on its opening weekend.
