Do you not agree with that which I am saying to you now?

First, I’ll talk about the 3 parts of a good movie review.

Then, read at least 5 movie reviews of Up. Here is Metacritic and here is Rotten Tomatoes. Get a good balance between pans and raves.
In small groups, pull out at least 5 examples of the 3 parts of a good movie review: 1) What’s it about [blurb] 2) What’s good/bad about it? [evaluation] and 3) What can you comapare it to? [context]

Create a short 3-4 slide Keynote that features some of the best quotes.

After this, you’ll have a chance to choose the movie (0r other artistic creation) to review. Get at least 3 good reviews and blog about what you find there.

HW:  Choose the thing you’ll review and find 3 reviews of it. Write a pre-write sketching where you’re going with the review.

Review this!

Plus, a review of Twilight.  Really, really long and fascinating.
