Man, I gotta tell ya.. If I looked for review before choosing a module.. I would have missed out on a TON of amazing stuff!!!
Most important thing for me is the documentation. If it sucks, if it's porrly documented, I make a vommity face and keep looking.. Unfortunately there are some old dinosaurs out there that are so so documented.. like
PDF::API2.. which I think is... uck.. just look at the docs.. so sad.. this is such a nice module... :-)
