If you’re wondering why it’s impossible to find good reviews now, the answer is pretty simple. It’s not that they don’t exist, it’s that Google has let major publishers game the system to the point where real reviews are so low on the search results that they can’t afford to stay in business.
Maybe if Google started penalizing entire sites for those fake reviews, we’d see some change. But I’m not counting on it.
