Note: My reviews aren't meant to hurt people, a lot of people have different opinions and I'm just giving mine as a reviewer.
~Colour/Color - 2/3
- I've seen this poster before, you've sent this as an entry for a 'mysterious challenge' right? Using a black is good for mysterious one. However the shade of your black is somewhat gray, I don't have anything against that, but a mysterious poster is always obscure.
~Font
- I wont grade your fonts, because you don't have one. Except for your credits.
~Image Suitability- 1.5/3
- The quality of the image of the image is great, I don't have anything against it. But their picture is really big that its quite distracting.
~Overall layout- 2/3
- If you are going to make a mysterious poster, placing a brush of texture like that below, doesn't fit the whole theme. The swirl was somewhat okay, but the stars makes them fancy. And the perfect colors for the said theme is, BLACK, red, gray.
- Your blending for this poster is good, keep up the good work.
Total: 5.5/9

~Colour/Color 1.5/3
- Okay. the pink was nice, obviously this is a happy theme. I have a question, did you do some gradient thing here? coz, I could see the different colors and shades in your canvas.
- I think, it would be BETTER if you didn't turn their pictures (on the left side.) onto black & white, violet and etc. I know sometimes, making this kind of color effects, are cute on posters, however this time, it wasn't. It looks like a horror picture (the violet one). You even put a white outline on it.
~Font 1.5/3
- the font that you use was unreadable, especially the letter "L" on hello. Obviously it was 'hello' that's why i read it. Try to use much simpler ones and readable.
~Image Suitability 1.5/3
- as usual your images are big and the canvas was enormous. I have a question, are you making a wallpaper or background? Coz the size of it, was 1004x681. almost the standard size of a BG. Seriously, don't you get distracted by it? This is a poster for a story, if I were the reader, instead of focusing on the story itself, perhaps, my attention will be diverted on the poster because of its size. I;m not only pointing at the canvas, this also implies on the image size.
- if this is a happy, romantic theme try to look for happy-looking people (images).
~Overall layout: 2/3
- work with your canvas size and your images size.
- stick with your desire theme, if this is happy, make it more livelier.
Total: 6.5/12
Extra:
- I know you could make more beautiful posters, try to use some textures and other stuffs.

~Colour/Color 3/3
- I like GREEN, green is my favorite color, perfect choice of shade! I've notice, designers, rarely use green for their poster, so I could say this is quite unique.
~Font 3/3
- kudos! The simpler the font, the better. Having a simple fonts are very readable and good on the eyes of the viewers.
~Image Suitability 2.5/3
- I don't know them, but good choice of picture, HQ.
~Overall layout 2.5
- the poster for me, gives me the impression of ALMOST perfect. The only thing that I got irritated, (well, i apologize for the term) was the white outline on their picture, I know, you know what I mean. You could have at least apply the same texture (if it was the green thingy) above their picture and just fade them a little, to hide the white parts.
- I like the blending you made on the left and dark side.
