MOVIE REVIEW A movie review serves the purposes of telling people a movie's storyline, what characters are in the film, and whether or not people should see it. To do a movie review you first have to see the movie. Sometimes it is a good idea to see it twice. This is so you can fully understand the film and can provide an accurate review. You should bring with you a pen and notebook for notes. This is so you can identify and quote characters. You can also write down the plot as it develops. A movie's storyline is very important. If it is too complicated, people will lose interest; likewise, if it is not complicated enough, people will also lose interest. That is why people want to know what the plot is about. So say you are doing a review. For example, we will use //I Know What You// //Did Last Summer.// People want to know what the plot is, so you are going to tell them. In this case, the plot is about four close friends who accidentally kill a man. At least they think they killed him. A year later someone finds out what they did "last summer" and is going to make them pay. Characters can make or break a movie. If there is someone famous or well-known in a movie people will most likely go see it. For example, //Scream 2// starring Neve Campbell, David Arquette, and Courtney Cox will probably be a hit just because of the characters. That is why people want to know who is in the film. If a movie starring unknown characters came out, who would want to see it? (Well, some may!) It is very easy to get the names of the characters in a movie. After the movie is over you can copy their names from the credits. Last but not least is the critic's opinion of the movie. This is probably the most important part of the review. People want to know whether or not the movie is worth seeing, and that's what the critic ends the review with. To do this go back to your notes. Ask yourself the following: 1. Does the movie keep your attention? (where the plot comes in.) 2. Give your opinion about the acting. Was it good or bad? 3. How was the action or special effects? 4. Would you see the film again? You could probably ask more questions; however, you don't want to get too complicated. These questions, your notes and your opinion are all you need to make a movie review.
