To build a site like what you are talking about can be done in Drupal and can be done well in Drupal.

Drupal has the ability to add content with rich categorization like the site you listed bellow. Look a views (http://drupal.org/project/views) to make the listings.  Look at Fivestar (http://drupal.org/project/fivestar) to do reviews.

It has functionality for users and user management.

You can do search in Drupal "out of the box" or you can also use tools like Apache Solr to do cooler search.

These are many modules for ads but you may want to look at http://drupal.org/project/google_admanager

Hope this helps.

Hi,
 
 I have searched the forums for this but can't find a definitive answer so am relying on you guys to help. I want to create a products review site similar to http://www.reviewcentre.com/ using drupal and am not sure if it is the right portal to use. I have installed D6 and fiddled with it for a while (added some modules, like nice menus) but am not sure if I can get the functionality. Any help would be much appreciated.

Thank you.
