If your goal for now is to let us give you feedback, you should put in some reviews for movies that everyone has seen.

I haven't seen those three movies, which makes it harder for me to gauge whether the reviews are any good.

On the other hand, some of the music reviews are transparently bad.

I'm not sure if the ratings apply to the movies, or to the reviews. And since the people doing the rating are probably also not sure, that makes the ratings less useful.

Will you have the ability for multiple users to compete to provide different reviews, which then are ranked as they (the reviews, not the items being reviewed) get rated by the community?

I could see this evolving into a cool resource, but it's hard to tell from what you've got so far.




Thanks for the feedback. The goal is definitely to cover a wider range of movies, not just new releases but new releases seemed like a logical place to start as these would be fresh in peoples minds.

The ratings apply to the movies/music and not the actual reviews themselves so maybe that's something I need to make clearer.

Voting on reviews is something I definitely want to incorporate so that might get pushed up further in the list.
