Critiquing Movies
In pairs, you will critique (judge) the movie based on the following categories:
- Cinematography: Does the cinematography capture your attention? Is there a variety of interesting shots? Does it tell a visual story and complement dialogue?
- Story (Plot): Is the story clear? Did it fit the story arc (story mountain) with an introduction, problem, climax. etc.?
- Characters: Were the characters well-rounded? How can you describe the characters? Is there a villain?
- Overall impact: How did the movie make you feel? How can you describe the ending? Convincing? Heart-warming? What is the theme of the movie (overall message)?
