How exactly does the text match the meme?

Isn’t it supposed to be someone looking down / disappointed on someone else for their actions?

    It's from the 2006 movie Monster House. In the movie, the guy just finished helping a kid, and then decided to steal the kid's snack and eat it right there in front of him. I think the face in the meme was originally supposed to be a kind of "what are you gonna do about it?" face, but people now use it for disappointment / dread / concern.

    The version we see here is "AI enhanced" so it's somewhat deviated from the original.

    I’ve seen this meme used in so many different ways I don’t even know what it’s originally supposed to be for. lol

    The original scene is this

    Not a single meme using this format has followed the context of the scene.

    When it comes to reaction images, the original context doesn't matter, just what the facial expression captured in that one frame looks like.
