Tis far easier to criticize than create.

Devs often have insufficient time for the standard of perfection code reviews assume: perfect code, formatting, testing, experience, foresight, etc.

Code reviews also have a strong element of bullying, hazing, and people reenacting semi-trauma (that is the cycle of abuse so common in life: trauma makes you lonely, enacting that trauma on others in kind makes you feel less lonely)
