Critics were never powerful, or, at least, when they did it was very limited to some very specific films. Probably the only film review that changed the course of film history was Pauline Kael's roasting of Ryan's Daughter in 1971, which was so savage that David Lean decided to quit his career for more than a decade.

Pauline Kael is surely a name to be remembered.
