A movie (also film or motion picture) is a piece of cinematic art that tells a story or shows real events. It is usually a narrative that is made to entertain the audience and can make them laugh, cry or scare them. It can also teach them something.
Movies are usually shown in a theater or a cinema (in America) or at home on a TV. They can be rated R (for sexual content) or G (for general audiences). They are made by professionals that go through a lot of work to produce them. Movies can be popular and make a lot of money. They can be independent, art or even cult movies. They can be short or long and can be based on real life or not.
Actors read the script (written by a writer) and learn what to say and do. Then a cameraman records them saying and doing these things. Then a editor edits the recording and puts it together in a film. Then a sound engineer adds music and voices to the film.
A good movie review should include many details about the film. It should cover the plot (story), characters, and any important events that happened. It should also discuss the director and his or her style. It should be written in a way that is easy for the reader to understand. A good review should also be unbiased and not mention any personal opinions about the movie.
