  • How to Write a Film Review | UK Film Review

    Learn how to write a film review using tips from UK Film Review's Editor-in-Chief Chris Olson. How to Write a Film Review Writing a film review for the first time can be a daunting prospect. Many aspiring writers struggle to put down into words how they feel about an art form that is more visual and audible. That's why, here at UK Film Review, we want to give you some of our best advice on how to write a film review so that you can hit the ground running. 1. Choose your film. This is an important step. The first time you write a film review you are going to want to choose something you feel very passionate about in order to give you lots to write about. If you choose a movie that doesn't move or compel you in any way, your review could end up feeling a little uninspired too. 2. Choose your medium. It is essential to know how you feel most comfortable when writing. Some are happy with a computer or laptop, some may prefer good old pen and paper. Others may even prefer a typewriter (feel free to Google that word if it is not in your vocabulary). Whichever way you prefer make sure this is the method you choose when learning how to write a film review - as it will make the experience a lot more enjoyable. 3. Do your research. After watching the film (which needs to be a recent viewing and could sometimes require multiple watches), resist the urge to launch straight into your thoughts and feelings. Sure, make some detailed notes about your first reactions but doing some research on the film so that when it comes time to write your film review you will be able to come at it with more authority and knowledge - which will make the writing a lot easier. To find out more about how to write a film review and get some top tips from our Editor-in-Chief (who is also an established film critic), check out the eBook below which gives aspiring writers some golden nuggets. 9 Top Tips for Aspiring Film Critics £1.99 Price BUY NOW How to Structure a Film Review There are many ways you can write a movie review and the structure will often depend on the outlet. For example, at UK Film Review, our writers have a basic model to work from which they can bring their own style too. Other publications may be more rigid or casual about the structure of their film reviews but pretty much everyone has what's called a "House Style". It is important to follow this when learning how to write a film review as it will help keep you on track, structured, and to the point. What should be included in a film review? Within a film review, the critic should look to explore all aspects of the filmmaking. This is where film criticism differs from an opinion. When writing a film review, the writer needs to validate their observations with specific reasoning as to why they feel the way they do. One simply cannot state "I didn't enjoy this film therefore it gets one star." Instead, the film review should include discussion on the film's strengths and weaknesses, comparison to other movies of a similar genre, or relate the movie to the filmmaker's previous works. It is essential to at least cover: the plot, the performances, the themes and your summary. Examples of a Film Review Looking at examples of a film review is a great way to learn how to write one. This way you can examine the nuances that each writer brings, as well as the common traits which appear in many movie reviews. When first learning how to write a film review it can be quite daunting, so it is best to jump right in and start reading as many as you can. You will soon learn that film criticism is a fun and rewarding experience that enhances cinema. How to Write a Film Review Template Template film reviews are not something we massively encourage. Whilst we like to promote a solid structure (see above) it is important to take each film as an individual piece of art. Filmmakers pour their heart and soul into their films and the idea that a template review could capture every single one of them is absurd. Instead, see the steps above about structure and also looking at as many examples of movie reviews as you can. You will soon see that you have enough to get started.

  • Student Film Reviews | UK Film Review

    Student film reviews written from schoolchildren in the UK. Reviewing movies for UK Film Review. Student Film Reviews Here at UK Film Review, we like to do two things - promote the movies of filmmakers, and promote the film reviews of the people who love watching movies. This includes filmmakers from across the globe, and writers from across the UK. A hobby for some, a passion for others, film reviews can do more than just tell you whether a movie is worth seeing at the cinema. Film reviews are all about exploring the tireless efforts of a filmmaking team, who have worked, collaboratively, for months or years on a project in order to present it to an audience. Such efforts deserve us really delving into them, discussing the elements which worked for us, and those which didn't. Film reviews are also not about ignoring all other opinions. In fact, a room of 20 people all watching the same movie will more than likely have 20 different opinions about that film. Which is not to say any of them are right or wrong...after all, film reviews are just opinions! Below you will find one of our favourite Student Film Reviews which was submitted to UK Film Review for analysis.

I don't like what a UK Film Review critic wrote/said about my film. Can I have the review removed/edited? Generally we do not remove reviews. It is unfair to our critics who have spent a lot of time watching your film and writing their review to have their hard work removed because you don't like their opinion. We will remove reviews should they fail to meet the UK Film Review standards we expect from our writers, and it is likely we will assign your film to another critic. Please only submit your film if you are happy to receive unbiased and genuine criticism from our critic. Many filmmakers are not used to this kind of feedback about their movies, especially ones they funded themselves and poured years of work into. Our job is to review the film as a final piece, not the arduous journey you took to make it. The critic is entitled to their opinion - one which they will have formed by watching your film in full at least once. Filmmakers should be aware that their films will not always appeal to every audience member. How do I enter my film into the UK Film Review Festival? Films can be entered into our film festival via our FilmFreeway page. We host an annual online film festival via our VOD sister site, UK Film Channel. Any filmmaker who enters the UK Film Review Festival will receive a guaranteed film review - if they haven't already had one. And anyone who receives a 5-star review will get guaranteed official selection status - should they choose to enter the festival. We have numerous categories to enter and allow submissions for short films, feature films, documentaries, and more.
