The question is: Why?

One important key to a great review is asking the question: why should the reader watch? 50 words isn't much but it's possible, sometimes with a bit of tweaking, to show a little of all of these:

  • how well it was made
  • who stars in it and how good they are
  • the story line (introduction and outline, but no spoilers)
  • the emotion it stirs
Combine all four and you've done it!
