A is the concise option.
It has to be as instead of like.
The meaning is modern filmmakers are annoyed by the critic's labelling and not by the critics themselves,hence C, D and E are wrong.

IMO :

like is wrong --drop B and E ..
C changes the meaning 
between A and D 
A is correct ..
In non underline part we have : Modern filmmakers are often  annoyed by ..so they are annoyed by some thing (some action ) , So A is more apt here

Official Answer by PREP4GMAT
===================

A - Correct:

This option correctly uses the possessive case to imply the view of critics regarding Pernin’s Diaspora, and as is used to logically convey this view.

B - Incorrect:

This option incorrectly uses the preposition like, which illogically conveys that the critics thought the film was similar to an inaccurate documentary.

C - Incorrect:

This option lacks a connection between labeling and critics.

D - Incorrect:

The relative pronoun who changes the meaning of the sentence as it suggests a personal annoyance with critics, rather than their labeling of the movie.

E - Incorrect:

This option incorrectly uses the preposition like, which does not definitively convey that the critics thought the film was an inaccurate documentary.

A) critics’ labeling of Pernin’s Diaspora as

(B) critics’ labeling of Pernin’s Diaspora like

(C) critics, labeling of Pernin’s Diaspora as

(D) critics who categorize Pernin’s Diaspora as

(E) critics who categorize Pernin’s Diaspora like

D&E gone because they’re changing the meaning. Now we are annoyed by a particular category of critics and not by the labelling of diaspora as something.

B gone because of usage of ‘like’, which is used in comparisons.

C gone because of comma splice error. “Labelling of” is a prepositional phrase and not a verb-ing modifier.

A is the answer.

Would request experts to kindly comment on my reasoning.
