Movies are stories about characters that actors act out. They are often entertaining and have lots of action. They can also make you feel sad or happy. There are many different types of movies, for example, thrillers, tragedies, and romances.
Movies can be about real-life events or made up. They are made by movie studios. They are usually shown in a cinema (a place that shows movies) or on TV. A film director makes a movie by shooting scenes with actors. Then the movie is edited to make a story and music is recorded. The movie is then put on film reels. A projector shines a light over the film and people watch it on a screen.
When writing a movie review, it is important to give reasons why the film worked or didn’t work. This is done by discussing the script, analyzing the characters and their motivations, and considering the direction of the film. A good review can help other people decide whether to watch the film or not.
Thrillers often have a mystery or strange event that needs to be solved and they keep you on the edge of your seat by using suspense and ‘twists’ in the plot. They can also make you feel afraid or scared, and they usually have a fast-paced action and lots of special effects.
Dramas usually focus on people and their relationships, and they try to make you cry or get upset. They can be about a love story, family problems or even political issues. A good example is Sidney Lumet’s jury drama 12 Angry Men, which features fantastic character actors in a gripping courtroom scene that challenges the audience to think differently about an issue.
