The reviews on the front page get rotated often. I've visited some titles two or three times in one day and each time there was a different review on the front page. Then again, some times the front page review doesn't change for days. I don't know if they change the front page reviews in some particular order, but given the fact that IMDb has several million reviews in its database, I'm pretty sure the staff doesn't actually decide on any given day which review will be on the front page. It doesn't even seem to matter if the front page review is the most recent. It's most likely decided via a random programming.
Hopefully, most IMDb users know enough to check at least a few comments instead of just taking the advice of whatever the front page comment happens to be!
