Who decides if reasons are legitimate or unreasonable? You may like something about a game that other won't and vice versa. Every customer has the right to complain and give a bad review just as to praise and give good review. It's up to the individual. There's no such thing as "review bombing", it's a game/movie/whatever simply getting bad reviews and producer/media trying to discredit those reviews.

    I am tempted to agree with you. I could see some theoretical scenario where some influencer with a large following convinces them to all review something poorly just because they say so. If that happened, I think it would be legitimate to call it review bombing. I don't think it's likely, mind you, that someone could convince a large enough group of people to do that without a valid reason. But it could theoretically happen.
