I thought Scott’s review was hard to follow at time because some of the words he used. When I read who he wrote the review for the big words made more sense to me. I liked the way that he compared his movies to the other James bond movies. He talked about how the main correctors have changed throughout the years. He compares the way they dressed, the way they are with woman, and how the new ones seem to have more emotion then the older bonds. He also compares the bond movies to other movies with a hero them. HE says that it seems to always be based on revenge of some sort. It was hard for me to get a visual of this movie the way it seemed like he skips around. I sis not think that he covered the title of the movie very well either, but he says the movie did not go with the title that he could tell of. He also does a good job with comparing the actors with other movies that they have done. He states that the main girl in the new bound movie Camille played by Olga Kurylenko is a typecast actor who plays the same kind of role in her other movies. He also gives a very brief insight on the music in this movie, but not too much insight. He just states that it was a good song on paper and then covers who sang the song for the movie. I thought he could of giving more comparisons using other critics’ reviews. He could have gone over more of what the movie initialed and less on how it stood op to other types of heroic movies.
I agree with you that Scotts review was hard to understand. I had to read the review several times to get an understanding of what he was talking about. Once I began to understand I believed he did a great job by not giving to much detail. I do agree he did not talk about the title, I feel as if that should have been one of the first things he mentioned, but I feel as if it helped me read more into the review to figure it out. I also liked how it was compared to other movies, by comparing to other movies I got an understanding of what this movie was about. This helped with him not mentioning the title of the movie very much. With making a review of the movie he did great by mentioning the music and wardrobe involved. This was great because again it helped me to understand the feel of the movie. As a big movie watcher I hate watching movies I know nothing about. If I was to watch this movie, I would know it’s an action movie and would be like the other James Bond movie. I also liked how in the review he told who the characters were. My opinion overall on the article is it was a pretty good review, but as a critique I would not choose to watch this movie. So I feel as if the reviewer helped me know if I wanted to watch the movie or not.
