It's not a judgemental statement- it's just a matter of fact- some people are not able to feel ampathy, to put themselves in someone else's world and feel what they feel. Certain movies require this in order to get the full effect.

This. I also first saw this when my ex girlfriend was pregnant with my daughter and so I could empathize with her fears of anyone harming the baby and her own fear of the baby
