Humour:	6.5	The humour is ok, but I think it is not as funny as that script you wrote for FF. What I don't like: You are just stating facts sometimes. Everyone knows that FF is shallow and badly-written, so just stating it repeatedly but in different ways in varying degrees of sarcasm, doesn't make it funnier. If I were you I'd give examples. Sometimes stating the facts is needed to build up the punch line, so I don't suggest doing away with them altogether. The recurring joke of "it's a copy of Point Break" - I did not find that very funny. Many instances I was left thinking, "was that meant to be funny?" like "inbred hillbilly redneck", "starving kids in ghetto", "Rob Cohen is a supervillian" - I feel that you don't need to insult everybody you mention, or you should be more subtle. Link humour a bit over the top. But it's ok, and it's the least of your problems. What I liked: Alliterative subheadings - I'm crazy about alliteration. Some jokes, like checking on Wikipedia, "unique subtleties and nuances", are quite good Observation on the relationship between sales and reviews is good The sections don't have big problems. I know that it seems I have a lot to criticise, but if I don't mention some parts its because they're adequate or ok.
Concept:	7	Nothing wrong with how you're doing it now but I feel it could it better. The main joke of the article seems to be "Robert Cohen and FF are crap", which could use more originality. To me personally, Robert Cohen feels like a man finely tuned to the "tastes" of the viewing public. Instead of saying "it's Robert Cohen's fault for bringing us FF", which is basically what you have done, maybe you can adopt a view of "it's our fault for watching it".
Prose and formatting:	7.5	Prose is fine with no obvious errors. I always tell my reviewees that I can't spell and can't see grammar mistakes. I use mozilla, however, and its spellcheck spotted 2 mistakes which I have corrected. You should get it proofread.
Images:	7	Ok and adequate. A bit bland. Mildly amusing. Definitely have room for improvement.
Miscellaneous:	7	My scoring is very arbitrary, don't place too much importance on them.
Final Score:	35	Hello. What happened to my sig?
