Ok, gave it 2nd chance. When you click on it, it brings you to Omni w/ another link. When you click on THAT, you get to what William says.
There are two (actually three) links to the reviews area on the OMNI thread listing page. It sounds like you clicking on the announcement listing and then going into the reviews from the announcement. To get there more directly use the banner ad link on the OMNI page or from any page on the site you can get tot he Reviews via the link in the top navigation (Extras -> Reviews).

Having said that, it's STILL irritating. First, there's only 5 per page. That's not very many. Can't that be increased?
This can and should be changed yes. The reason that it is so low, 5 reviews, is that there are very few in there now. I'll go ahead and bump up the number of results for searches today.

And dif movies have dif folk posting on same thing so multiple threads on same movie - dif than other sites I've been on. Not saying horrendous but still. Be easier to have "The Aviator" & then everyone posts on that vs multiple new threads re: Aviator.
Acutally the reviews should be grouped together so that all of the reviews about X movie are grouped together. For an example see:

http://www.flyertalk.com/reviews/item.php?item_id=28

You can get to a page that lists all of the reviews on a particular movie, hotel etc by clicking the "All Reviews of this Item" link that is at the top of any review page. Example:

http://www.flyertalk.com/reviews/rev...p?review_id=25

And even when you click on one, it brings up the same info & AGAIN you have to do a 2nd click to get to details - grrr.
This is a product of the answer above. As the reviews area grows there will be multiple reviews of each item of course and then when you get to the page you describe you will be bale to select from more than one review.

One thing to keep in mind is that although the reviews area does use your username to post revews, it really isn't a 'forum' so to speak, so it does work a bit differently than the forums and may take a little bit of getting used to. I hope this helps with the confusion, just let me know if there are more questions about the Reviews area. Thanks,
