Vejas, that is not a critique at all - that is ignorance.
A critique evaluates the work in depth and is not an emotional outburst.  A 
critique is not personal. It looks only at the work itself and gives the 
writer a fair estimate of what is working well and what is not working in 
the piece.  It is never done by attacking the writer in any way. I am so 
sorry that someone has said things to you that are hurtful.  A critique is 
uplifting and encouraging, while still being honest and pointing out what 
can be worked on and made better.]
