The challenge this time is to review with four or fewer letters, numbers or other non-punctuation symbols. For simplicity's sake, any number of punctuation marks are allowed.

I have chosen this theme because I love short reviews and as a nod towards the competition that inspired these challenges. However, the aim is not necessarily the shortest review but the best use of up to four characters.

Please post a specific link to each review and give clear spoiler warnings where appropriate.

You are welcome to post existing reviews, but you are particularly encouraged to write new ones fitting the requirement.

Like all challenges, this will be completely open-ended, due to the admittedly much-reduced delay in approvals and the fact that inspiration does not come at will. Good luck!

Other challenges:
F.W.F.R.ers' challenge 1: alliteration
F.W.F.R.ers' challenge 2: puns on film titles
F.W.F.R.ers' challenge 3: turn a phrase
F.W.F.R.ers' challenge 4: The Man Who Knew Infinity
F.W.F.R.ers' challenge 5: uniqueness
F.W.F.R.ers' challenge 6: lengthiness
F.W.F.R.ers' challenge 7: matching reviews
F.W.F.R.ers' challenge 8: find the hidden message
F.W.F.R.ers' challenge 9: going for a song
F.W.F.R.ers' challenge 10: responses
F.W.F.R.ers' challenge 11: rhyme
F.W.F.R.ers' challenge 12: anagrams

Good one. Won't be many, I reckon.

The immortal 'Fin' from noncentz comes to mind.

I only have one so far, for Patch Adams, but I'll have to try thinking of some more now. Great idea for a challenge!

A bit of a cheat since it refers to (British?) further education and is set in (American) higher education.

O1 O2

V&V

Bit of a spoiler for Eagle Eye

Not many, so I'll have to get thinking...

Yes, you're absolutely right, it's five. Why did I think it was 4 when I was checking my reviews?

No such thing as too British on a British website. Besides, most countries use that order.
