4.Critical Analysis is Key – The difference between a review anyone can write and a review people will clamor to read is in how well you analyze film. Think about those papers you had to write for lit class in college. The professor didn’t want you to just tell him what book was about but wanted you to break down themes in book and how they related to plot, characters, etc. Well same is true for a movie review. No one wants a summary of events or plot. A good review will examine themes or ideas movie raises and talk about how well or not so well movie executed those themes and ideas.
5.Point Out Pros and Cons – No movie is perfect and rarely is any movie all bad, so take time to talk about what movies does well and what it does not so well.
6.Be Original – For some folk it is two thumbs up, for others it is rotten tomatoes. 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 original.
Follow these steps and you’ll be writing best reviews web has to offer and your readers will constantly come back for more week in and week out. Happy writing.
