You can get a lot of mileage out of what other people say by paying attention to the ones who give reasons for those opinions and focusing on the one whose reasons correspond to what you value in a game.
Overall I think a good review of a piece of media doesn't even need to say if it's good or not; what it needs to do is describe that aspects someone might find compelling or annoying so they can make an informed decision about whether it's a good fit for their taste.
