I try to do that when I'm in a workshop environment. I tell them that I gained these impressions from a novel or story, and if those are the impressions you wanted me to have, bully for you. If not...
And sometimes I'll be watching a movie, and I'll see what they are trying to do, but they fail, and I don't hate the movie. I might feel sorry for it, but I don't hate it. Sometimes I think, if only I had a day to tweak the script before they filmed it, it could have been really cool.
