A film review describes briefly the theme of the movie, the characters involved and a very short summary of the movie. It then goes on to describe the positive characteristics of the movie, and the negative ones too. A film review checks the movie in crucial aspects such as the violence content, sexual content, usage of drugs in the film, and other anti-social elements that could be present in the movie.
