How Does Reviewing Work with Conversational, Blog type?

It is my understanding that CC has very strict requirements for quality. How does that work out if you are trying to submit a more relaxed, casual blog type
entry?
Is this simply not a good platform for that type of work, or is that taken into account with CC's editors?

I wanted to do series of blog-type movie reviews, but I don't want to risk too many rejections.

thanks for your comments

If you're planning on writing, "Yo, this movie was da bomb," then that's too casual. CC allows us to use a conversational voice as long as it's professional. In fact, we're encouraged to use second person voice here.

For example, something like the following would likely be accepted here:
"If you're into action movies, you're in for a treat. SuperHero II will have your heart pumping and your head spinning."
