FILM REVIEW

FOR THOSE WHO WENT TO THE CINEMA TODAY, LET ME REMIND YOU YOUR ASSIGNMENT:

WRITE A FILM REVIEW
AS THERE WERE MANY DIFFERENT LEVELS WITH ME (2º ESO TO 2º BACH) THERE ISN'T  A GOOD MODEL THAT SUITS EVERY LEVEL

For a basic writing you should answer questions like these:

1. What is the title of the film?
2. What genre is it? Can you compare/relate it to others?
3. What is it about?
4. Is it based on a book?
5. Where is the film set?
 6. When is the film set?
7. Who stars in the film?
 8. Who plays the main role(s)?
 9. Who is your favourite character in the film? (Why?)
10. What kind of person would like this film?

You can follow this pattern.

• To inform. The review needs to tell people who is in the film, who it is by and where or when readers can see it.
• To describe. The review should describe the story, characters and some of the action - without spoiling the plot or giving too much away!
• To analyse. A good review gives an opinion on whether the film is good or not and why.
• To advise. Finally, the review should tell the reader whether or not to go and see the film.

And you can also read the reviews of the film in a post in my blog. You may find them a bit difficult to understand since they come from broadsheets (The Guardian, The Telegraph)
