No, but there is a clearly established right to critique.  If writers
and other creative types could sue magazines and newspapers over a
negative review there would be no such thing as book and movie critics.
How can any rational person equate a letter saying "this game sucks" or
whatever with "Fire" in a movie theater?

That depends.  Do you mean 40 hours per day for each person?  It hardly
matters; 20 hours per day per person over an extended stretch of time
is also impossible.
