Question Major typing errors in reviews? (*edit* or not..)

I keep noticing a copious amount of spelling/punctuation/grammatical errors in the reviews. For example, from the review of Ong Bak 2:

"He� more like the �oss�in this �evel,�because if there� one thing you could equate to Ong Bak 2, it� a videogame, a third-person brawler that spawns endless amounts of enemies for our nearly mute hero to dispatch. In each stage, Jaa takes on a steady stream of personality-free baddies before encountering some colossal foe�ith some definable physical trait�ho� not quite as easy to take down. Wash, rinse, repeat. The only thing saving the film from being a rote exercise in monotonous violence is Tony Jaa, who� simply transfixing when he� in motion. (His dramatic beats falter, as he still hasn� learned to make more than one expression.) It� unfounded hyperbole to call him the savior of martial arts movies, as some critics have claimed�e has yet to make a real classic�ut he� the best in the business right now, at least in terms of sheer physical ability. The film� most spectacular stunt has Jaa leaping across the backs of a herd of stampeding elephants. A fall would mean certain trampling, but there are no safety cables, no clever cutaways or image manipulations. What you see is what you get. And while the original Ong Bak was all about Muay Thai kickbocking, Jaa expands his martial arts repertoire here to include a variety of pan-Asian styles that I admittedly know nothing about but look pretty damn impressive. I don� know how anyone can combine stop-on-a-dime movements with almost frictionless fluidity, but Jaa does it."

The occasional mistakes are understandable, but when there are a dozen in a paragraph I almost wonder if there isn't some sort of technical error going on. Apostrophes seem non-existent, for instance..?
