Tips

mistakes
Easy to confuse with 凭藉 ("to rely on") - same pinyin, totally different meaning. 评介 = (evaluate) + (introduce); 凭藉 = (rely on) + (use). Read the characters, not just the sound.
usage
Mostly book/film/scholarship reviews aimed at introducing the work to readers, hence the "introduce" component . Plain "review/critique" is 评论; 书评 is a stand-alone book review.
