Why do most film, music, and book reviewers use opinion adjectives?! Words like nice, good, outstanding, exciting, dynamic, enthralling; are all opinion adjectives. They are all based on perception rather than fact. The purpose of a review is to give a thorough, objective view point intended to cause the audience to create their own "opinion adjectives." A review guides the audience to determine whether the media presented is to the interest. If an artist has to use primarily opinion adjectives in order to deceive the intended audience into believing the media is to their interest, then the artist needs to reassess why their media does not naturally appeal to their intended audience.

Don't take media reviews from popular media networks seriously. They obviously didn't read it.
