If the court does find it defamatory, could it mean that bad reviews are effectively illegal?


I guess it depends on the content of the review. If you just criticize a restaurant's food, that's OK. But if you suggest that the kitchen staff are peeing in it, that would probably be defamatory. So this case may come down to, e.g. whether she says the Church is like a cult, or suggests it actually is one.
