(1) How to Write Movie Review Step-by-step Instructions: 1. Actively Watch the Movie 2. Take Copious Notes 3. Summarize. Don’t Spoil. 4. Critical Analysis is Key 5. Point Out the Pros and the Cons 6. Be Original 1. Actively Watch the Movie We recognize that movie watching is a passive activity. Watching a movie isn’t something you do, it is something that happens to you. However, if you want to write good reviews you have to learn to look at movies with a critical eye. This means you need to pay attention to everything and I mean Everything. 2. Take Copious Notes We don’t expect students to watch films with pen and pad or laptop in hand. But I do expect you to take solid mental notes. Information such as the actor’s names or who the director was is easy to come across. So you need to train yourself not only to watch for that type of information but also to remember it. 3. Summarize. Don’t Spoil Nothing is worse then reading a review that tells the whole movie from beginning to end and leaves nothing for you to see. People want your opinion, not for you to spoil the movie. A basic summation of the plot is all that is necessary. Let the details of the film be revealed when your readers see the film, not when they read your review. 4. Critical Analysis is Key No one wants a summary of events or the plot. A good review will examine the themes or ideas the movie raises and talk about how well or not so well the movie executed those themes and ideas. 5. Point Out the Pros and the Cons No movie is perfect and rarely is any movie all bad, so take the time to talk about what the movies does well and what it does not so well. 6. Be Original Whatever you decide you want your rating system to be, be original. Try to find a hook that works for you. Just don’t do something that closely resembles someone else or you’ll just seem like a bad copy of the original.
