Who doesn’t love sharing their opinions online about things they feel passionate about? Every person with a phone, TikTok account, or Yelp profile is automatically granted permission to share their review. Everyone wants to tell the world what’s good and what’s garbage. From movies to restaurants to the newest iPhone, the internet is constantly drowning in reviews.

Once upon a time, we used to turn to professional critics to receive a well-informed review of a product or service, but somewhere along the way, they were pushed to the sidelines. Without them, we have slowly lost the deeper conversations that help art, food, and culture actually evolve.
