Ask yourself this: do you want to critique the fic (or see it critiqued) because you honestly believe that there's a good idea or story underneath the flaws that could be brought out with some help and extra work, or do you want to crit it because you're bitter that something you personally consider inferior is getting a lot of attention?

If it's the former, go ahead and crit, but be polite about it, and be mindful that your crit may not be well received (and even if it's well received by the author, their friends or fans might be defensive if they perceive you as attacking either the author or their own taste).

If it's the latter, that's something you need to get over. Bad is fairly subjective, and even when it isn't, it isn't always unenjoyable. Particularly in fandom, where people are more likely to be looking for an engaging fix of their favorite ships and/or tropes rather than a lovingly crafted literary masterpiece.
