Ancillary task research (Film review)


The above pictures are representatives of the film magazines "Total film" and "Empire magazine" for my ancillary task I am writing a magazine review on our film "Aquisition" although I feel i have a general idea on how a film review should be written and set out, I decided to brush up on my knowledge by doing some research on how the professinals review. "Total film" and "Empire" are two of the biggest film magazines in Britian and are recognised within society.
   I've learnt how magazines set out the reviews for films and have realised that the reviews are rarely negative towards the films. This is because if the magazines criticised the films, marketing would not allow there films to be reviewed by them. As these magazines are so popular, if they were negative towards the films people would listen and would, prehaps, be influnced into not seeing the film. Taking this into consideration when I review "Aquisition" I shall review it with a positive frame of mind and take a biased view towards the film.
