Look at me! I am playing badly reviewed games and having fun!

Another thing I just tought about.

The reviews for Cursed Mountain stated that the control scheme was deficient. That your motions were not properly read and that it lead to frustration. I have played the whole thing from beginning to end and LEARNED how to used the controls. Sure, at first they are tough to master but in the end, I got it right EVERY TIME.

This leads me to think that some reviewers give some game a very shallow look before giving their reviews. And in my mind, that's not fair.

That definitely happens.  I think it is more the result of there being so many games and so little time rather than being anything malicious.  The end result of a bad review is the same either way though.

If it's a game they decided beforehand they didn't like, then it is malicious. And there are some of those.
