It could be that the OP would like to see some standardization and general expectations in the reviews.
And while he might have a point, to try to eliminate personal bias from the reviews would be pointless. It should be stated though so people know what they are and can take them into account when reading the reviews.
However, complaining that a reviewers judgment is wrong because it does not agree with yours is also folly.
Personally, while I look at the score of a review, I also look for interesting comment and general concerns (like control, which to me is the biggest thing that makes/breaks a game).

My favorite recent review comment was in April's Nintendo Power. "For the second month in a row, Capcom elected not to send us a copy of Chop Til You Drop." It then said that that cannot mean good things for the game (I cannot remember the exact wording).
 I am Mario.I like to jump around, and would lead a fairly serene and aimless existence if it weren't for my friends always getting into trouble. I love to help out, even when it puts me at risk. I seem to make friends with people who just can't stay out of trouble. Wii Friend Code: 1624 6601 1126 1492 NNID: Mike_INTV |
