How do you perform Code Reviews?

How are code reviews performed on your development team?
I've been a developer for several years now in several different companies and I have noticed that there isn't a consistent approach to performing code reviews.
At my current company, code reviews are non-existent, which has led to a significant decrease in the quality of the code. At previous jobs, code reviews ranged from just making sure coding standards were enforced to nazi-like line by line reviews that took days to complete.
So I'm wondering what its like for everyone else out there. And in particular, what tools do you use to perform the reviews? And do you find that code reviews help rather than add to the length of time needed for a given project?
