Ancillary product 2 - My Film Review

Here is the first draft of my film review. Made in a slightly unconventional way, in which is breaks down everything that happens in the film in a critical way instead of highlighting certain aspects in which the director has done well.
I decided to create the review like this because I read a fight club review in which it was very critical of Fight Club, and because Fight Club is one of my inspirations towards my short film, I thought it would be a good idea to create something similar.

The link to the fight club review:

 The layout was taken from Odeon's review of The Waiting Room. I decided to do something similar to that because it was a film review that was very minimamlistic in style, and quite a basic design but I thought it looked good overall and did it's job.

Review analysis




Here is my break down of The Waiting Room review by Odeon. 
For my film review, I will be trying to almost replicate this idea because I like how it's not the most professional review. The style of this review matches my film, and the film style well.
