See attached screenshot.

I can't tell by looking at the image what sorting algorithm we're using, but whatever it is, it seems to need some adjustment so that reviews like that can never appear in the top three. :)

None of those three are very helpful compared to better reviews available, in fact.

Sort Reviews

We have a score about comment as "usefulness" use it for sorting,
and add 3 options for sorting: "Relevance" (user facing for usefulness)
rating (best to worst) and date (recent to old)

Adapt the header layout to fit the button sending the optional comment
"install to write a review" on a new line when it doesn't fit
