FILM REVIEW. 4th ESO

USEFUL LANGUAGE TO WRITE A FILM REVIEW AND AN EXAMPLE

THE FOLLOWING QUESTIONS MAY HELP YOU WRITE YOUR OWN.

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? Recommendation.

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.
