For the past few days in class, we have been discussing how to properly write a film review. As a class, we have been constructing a review of the Disney short film, Feast, a movie about a puppy who is homeless eating people’s garbage off the street who then found by his owner who eats a very unhealthy diet that he then shares with Winston. The owner then tries to change his ways but ends up going back to the same unhealthy diet, Winston notices and goes back to the owner’s old love interest to help save the owner. Winston’s plan works and not only saves the owner but saves the owners relationship and reunites their love. By the end of the short film the owner and his love had gotten married and had a child who also loves to feed Winston their same human diet. As I mentioned before, the past couple of days we had been constructing a review of this movie, today we started to put the whole thing together. Each group had to come up with a theme and discus what elements of the movie correlate to this theme. Mr. rivers provided us with an example review (Shown below) to help give us an idea of what kind of review we want to be writing. Within our groups, we had to create a paragraph revolving around the theme that we had come up with. After each group constructed their paragraphs we placed them on a document and the class voted on which paragraph deserved to be in our class review. Today’s class helped us visualize the work and editing that goes into writing a critical movie review.
