Technically: Digital detectors are more sensitive to light incident perpendicular to the sensor plane, so light coming in at a strong off-axis angle is less likely detected or may present color fringing. This is much less of an issue with film. However, this effect is unlikely to be significant with most SLR lenses/cameras due to the lens-sensor distance, and probably only really matters for non-retrofocus wide angles for RFs adapted to mirrorless cameras, or the odd example of trying to use a digital detector with a lot of tilt/swing.
Aesthetically: People write all sorts of stuff in lens reviews, and a lot of it has to do with their preconceptions. Many great photos have been taken with fairly humble lenses. And a lot of supposed issues with lens performance are addressed by stopping down to f/5.6-8. So don't get bent out of shape by lens reviews. If you want to use a lens, go ahead and try it regardless of whether some internet jockey reviewed it on a digital sensor or not.
