There are a few things to consider before you do anything.
Consider the source.
Does this person know what they’re talking about?
If not so much, if they are a fellow student or someone in a writing group or workshop, the only thing that counts about their opinion is if a bunch of other people have the same problem with the same element.
Consider that the notes are right.
Yes! Just consider it. Of course your script can always be tighter or more fun or more polished, unless you’ve written Casablanca somehow. Are you pissed because you tried to float some cheese and got caught? Back to work.
Consider the parameters.
It’s one script about one thing, and the purpose of reader feedback is not to laud what a genius writer of early drafts you are, but how well you are communicating the intent of your story. Odds on, in those early drafts, you’re not. So only attach importance to notes that tell you how well your main ideas are making it to the page. And ask! If your readers are available, ask them if they picked up those ideas.
Or, maybe you are being attacked. Then you can say, “Thanks for reading, Brendan, is that a semi-digital typewriter?”
