" Helen Nowotnik of The Triangle thought that the song "It's the perfect fusion of Maroon 5's old and new sounds." Evan Sawdey of PopMatters wrote the song "is your big anthem that actually could've been a lot bigger had they not relied entirely on a thin drum palette during the chorus."

Robert Copsey of Digital Spy wrote that the song "feels anonymous despite its stadium-sized chorus.

And in this, the movie generally succeeds as sudden scares and flashes of yucky imagery cause audience members to yelp aloud as if on cue . . . The most irritating aspect of the new movie, however, has nothing to do with comparisons but rather with some of the inherent illogic of the story. Why are we seeing images of a hanged girl when we know she’s been shot in the head? Images seem to be grafted into the film that have little to do with the actual story. Maybe it’s a technique that succeeds within quick advertising spots, but it piles confusion onto the art of storytelling.

She said "It's hard to believe something so evil is the child of Drew. One can only assume his father's horse-related death traumatised the child terribly, as otherwise there is no excuse for the brat's whining. Hopefully there'll be some sort of Ben gets redeemed storyline, because right now, he's fast threatening to overtake Hannah 'Button' Martin as the most irritating child to ever hit Ramsay Street". Deller has further commented on Ben stating: Ben has long been a contender for the most annoying child in Erinsborough award [...] He's been acting like a three year old despite being about ten putting on cutesy voices when making shite presents for 'the baby'.

According to IGN, "the problem [with Final Fantasy VIII] is that the character at the heart of everything, Squall, is basically a pouty jerk ... When your story is character-centered, you'd better center it on a character the audience can care about. Squall ... just doesn't fit the bill". 1UP.com ranked Squall second on its list of the "Top 5 Most Irritating RPG Protagonists" and stated although he was an attempt to "cater to the fedora-wearing, trench- coat-clad folks", his lack of social skills alienated players. Edge compared Squall unfavorably with Final Fantasy VII protagonist Cloud Strife, saying Squall's angst "didn't seem to have any context" unlike Cloud's, which developed from one of the pivotal events in Final Fantasy VII.

Sean McKnight, the Deputy Head of War Studies at Sandhurst, called him "just about the most dramatically ambitious senior officer I think I've ever come across. He's never content, he's always looking for the second or third job down the line, and one of the most irritating facets of him is, even when he's got something he should be very happy with, he's not content". Townshend's endlessly ambitious streak, together with his tendency to view whatever position he held as insufficient for him, and a penchant for writing letters attacking whoever was his commanding officer as incompetent to their commanding officer, made him very unpopular with other officers, who viewed him variously as a treacherous intriguer forever scheming for promotion, a pathetic whiner who was never happy with what he had, and a dangerous megalomaniac whose vainglorious quest for yet another promotion led him to take gratuitous risks.Perry, James Arrogant Armies, Edison: Castle Books, 2005 page 246.

Crocker in 2013 Following his mainstream success, Crocker gradually began to change his image from feminine to masculine, eventually having adopted a predominantly masculine appearance by 2012 and thereby garnering significant attention for being physically attractive. Crocker said that although he understands he is more socially or traditionally attractive, he dislikes people saying it and "the most irritating thing" is when men he finds attractive say they find him more attractive this way. He felt that people should accept all of him instead of only the masculine side of him, and that dating is difficult because "[the guys] can't always accept that [he] used to dress up or that that's a part of [him] still and that [he still dresses up]." He identifies with the acceptance he received from his grandmother, who always wanted him to present as masculine, but he also finds it upsetting because she did not accept the way he was before.
