A film review is a piece of writing that gives basic facts about a film, a summary, and what the reviewer thinks about the film. The basic facts include the names of the main characters (actors) and the people responsible for making the film, for example, director, writer, or cinematographer.

The following conventions are often used when writing a film review:

• simple present tense used to describe and summarize the film
• actor’s names enclosed in parentheses
• star-rating system used to evaluate film.

The review also avoids revealing the ending or any information that might spoil the audience’s surprise.
