When it comes to doing a film analysis, there are far more features than you would imagine. There is much more detail that goes into a film analysis as oppose to just picking out certain features in the movie. If you want to create an effective analysis of a film, you have to be willing to devote a good amount of time into every minute detail.
Your job is to give an opinion of the movie. Ultimately, this may come down to a `thumbs up` or `three stars out of five.` But you want to have a specific thesis to drive your critique. For example, `I didn't like this comedy` becomes `The story had funny moments but it went on too long.` `This horror movie is good` becomes `This horror movie works because it builds suspense right up until the end.` So, try to find that very specific opinion that will be the foundation of your film review. A critical movie review also discusses a film's potential areas of improvement as well.
Are there any striking uses of perspective (seeing through a character's eyes, camera angle, etc.) How does this relate to the meaning of the scene? Impact?
