The review cycle is the same, there is still Sprint Planning, etc. But the Sprint Planning changes so that the main result is the Sprint Goal, not the Sprint Backlog. Then the WIP is generated in an agile way in order to achieve the Goal given the reality of the work that's actually getting done. The only difference is that the team doesn't commit to stories at the beginning, it just commits to them as time becomes available. The main problem is prevention of "scope creep" within the stories once they have been committed to - so you need good definitions of done and a team mature enough to abide by them.
