hmmm, most of these questions have been answered, but I feel like adding 2 cents worth.

Reasons behind writing a review
You like telling the world about the DMOD, and the fact that you've got nothing better to do with your time.

Spur creativity/rein in the awful
I doubt any reviewer thought... hey I'll reviews this DMOD and maybe the author will make another one. Better just send an email.

Good, Bad, and the Ugly
Great movie, one of my favourites, I give it a 10 out of 10 - opps, back to real reviews... yeah a good review should point out what is good and bad, what the review liked and disliked.

One, two skip a few...

How far should a reviewer go in critising
As far is is objectively needed.

Author responisble
Ummm, I can't think of anyone else who is.

Final words
Be consistent. Inconsistency is my pet peeve - but the majory infringer of this crime has since left in a puff of smoke... anyways... Be open to change. I have sent emails to people who review my files (as an author I feel I have the right to respond to reviews) and have received emails about my reviews, and then changed them accordingly if the author has pointed out something I've missed or been incorrect about. If a file is updated and your review needs updating and you are requested to do so, it is only common courtesy to do so.
