Just a summit after installing, maybe you're interested in some basic experiences of me..

+it has a clear and minor view qua customer review
+some adjustment can be made, but i see this as a good basic review publisher.
+simple and fast emailnotification of new reviews
-the only mayor disadvantage is the translation.

Such a nice plugin, and no language selections..

It works great if you're going to be working in one language, particularly English, but multiple languages doesn't seem to have been even taken remotely into consideration with this plugin. I was looking to modify it for multiple languages and then noticed numerous bad coding practices.
JavaScript is used with hard-coded text and calls actions based on text values. Entire lines of HTML output are stored in PHP which makes scanning the file for translatable text more difficult.
Still a great plugin, but I think plugins of this rating level should have more taken into account.
I just spent over 20 minutes trying to find the shortcode for a sidebar widget when you could have put it in the installation or description section. I had to look in the code for shortcode names - annoying.
In other news, it works though requires a lot of css formatting to look decent on most sites. It's practically unnoticeable to readers and manual "attention grabbing" styling is needed of people will never know it's there.
A widget to display latest or random reviews would be awesome instead of having to use short code, one that dynamically rotates even better.
Otherwise, good job.
Looks good, but no one has looked at it in 6 months, will they be continuing to support it? 3 stars until someone has shown some interest.
The positive reviews here give me optimism. Here's hoping?
