Review

A review of an item — product, service, business, book, movie, etc.

What it is

Review represents a single review with author, rating, and review body. Critic reviews of media (Movie, Book) get distinct rich result treatment. As of 2023, Google restricts review rich snippets to 17 schema.org types — random page reviews no longer surface.
