Film Reviews

A film or movie review is an article that is published in a newspaper or magazine that describes and evaluates the movie at its time of theatrical or dvd release and is designed to help potential viewers decide whether or not to watch the film. Reviews are typically written by journalists giving their opinion of the movie. Some reviews include a score (4 out of 5 stars) or recommendations (thumbs up).
