Reviews Disappeared

There were approximately 10 user reviews on this film last night. Only 1 (a negative review from a spammer who only posts negative things on movies trying to sink them) is still on. What happened, and can the other reviews please be reinstated? https://www.imdb.com/title/tt13281680/

Negative reviews being removed

A film has had a number of negative reviews removed from it https://www.imdb.com/title/tt13119000/?ref_=tt_rt These reviews were originally approved and I am guessing that the negative reviews were reported by friends and family of the writer/director/actor.  They have since been replaced wit

Missing reviews

On Saturday, I posted my review for “Under The Shadow”. After three days it still had not been published. Then, yesterday, it eventually appeared in my list of reviews.

Deleted reviews

In the past two days ten of my reviews were suddenly deleted. How and why did that happen? I’m assuming someone working for IMDb didn’t like my opinions… What is the point of allowing people to post reviews only to censor them? I’m assuming it’s to get people to watch crappy movies and shows.

Declined Reviews

I just recently began submitting reviews of movies to IMDb. The first three were accepted but the last two were declined with the note that they did not meet the contribution guideline. I looked at the guidelines and they seem to fit. Though long, they are within the stated limit of 10,000 character
