I got a !! in a recent game with the comment below. The text sounds more sarcastic than anything - it sounds like a very bad move when worded this way. It should have said "sacrificing this piece forces mate" or if it isn't forced, "this sacrifice activates the bishop and opens up a mating net on the king" from https://www.chess.com/analysis/game/daily/675961663?tab=review&move=59

is brilliant

You left your piece free to capture. A brilliant idea!

Yeah the game review text is really bad. It's never helpful often just saying stuff like that move is decent but not the best, and I'm like obviously, that's why stockfish called it a good move. It's also sometimes just gives the completely wrong reason why a move is good or bad.
