The review wall

0–3s

“{{REVIEW_COUNT}} reviews all say one thing.”

Vertical 9:16 handheld selfie video, close-up. A 31-year-old Tamil woman with warm brown skin, long black hair in a low bun, round tortoiseshell glasses, mustard ribbed turtleneck and a small silver nose stud holds an iPhone right up to the lens; the screen shows app-store reviews scrolling fast. She pulls the phone aside to reveal her face, one eyebrow raised, and says: "{{REVIEW_COUNT}} reviews all say one thing." Behind her, a whiteboard covered in pastel hiragana sticky notes in a home office. Soft afternoon window light from the right, natural skin texture, shot on iPhone front camera, unpolished. No captions or on-screen text.

Why it works

Leading with a review count borrows trust before the viewer has decided anything, and framing it as 'they all say one thing' turns social proof into a curiosity gap. The demo pays it off in five seconds, and quoting a single real review makes the number human.

Hook variants to A/B test

  • “I read every one-star review first. There weren't many.”
  • “Why do thousands of people say this app is the one they didn't quit?”
  • “Same sentence in review after review.”
