Code reviews can definitely help improve software quality, but there are somethings you have to be mindful of.

* Talk about the design before writing code - if the design is bad very few code reviews will tell the person to throw away what they have done and start again

* Break down the code review into manageable chunks - doing a code review on hundreds of changed files is really hard to maintain focus.
