A movie (or film) is a piece of visual art that can entertain or educate people. Movies can be made to make you laugh (comedy), cry (tragedy), or feel scared (horror). There are also movies that mix genres, like horror-comedies. Some movies are based on true stories, while others are fantasy or historical.
A movie starts with a script. This is the story of the movie, including dialogue and the words that will be said. Actors, or actresses, and directors then read the script to learn what they need to say and do. Cameramen then record the actors with a film camera. Editors then put the scenes together in the right order to make the movie.
After the movie is finished, audiences (people watching the movie) see it at a theater or at home. They may discuss the movie afterwards. A good movie can make a lot of money. If it is very successful, the studio that produced it may keep making more movies with the same characters and basic plot.
When you write a movie review, it is important to focus on the specific things that stood out to you about the film. Avoid focusing on generalities, like whether the acting was good or not. It is also helpful to watch the movie again before writing a review. This will allow you to pay attention to details that you might have missed the first time. For example, you might notice that the soundtrack enhances a scene, or that certain camera angles are used to create a sense of drama.
