I am wondering if there is a way to comment/review and rate the user profile ? I was looking for the same solution for Drupal7 before, now, am wondering if there is anything new in backdrop here to do this. Thanks

Possibly with Fivestar for the rating portion (though I haven't tried it). You could try adding a "Fivestar rating" field on user accounts.

That's a bug in Backdrop's content_access. Can you please create an issue in that issue queue?
