The only drawback to the "review already exists for another film" feature that I can see is that it may encourange reviewers (especially newcomers) to become less diligent in checking the extant reviews for film they are reviewing to see if there's a similarity, in much the same way that spell checkers now encourage people to be lackadaisical in their spelling. However, I believe the benefits outweigh the drawbacks and I support this feature.
