If there's a chance that the unintended recipient hasn't read it yet, do what they 'always' do on TV or in the movies:
Distract the recipient away from his PC, gain access to their PC by guessing the password, and delete the email.
If he/she catches you in the act, have a cover excuse for being there. e.g. just bringing this document
If the criticism is genuine they may just take it on the chin if they can accept they're not perfect, so best policy may be to do nothing and see what (if anything) happens. Then raise it at the meeting as originally planned, after which the email will be irrelevant.
