Ready Player One: Conclusion; Film Review & Twine Interactive Fiction Project Writing Time

We will complete Ready Player One today in class.

After viewing the film, please write a 300-500 word review of the film. Consider such areas of scrutiny as: editing (pacing), special effects (sound & visual effects, such as CGI), direction, acting, and writing (script and dialogue).

You can find details about who was responsible for what job at IMDB.com at the link. You can also see Warner Bros. website for info. If you use other reviews or these sites, remember to attribute your sources!

Film reviews usually start with a clever quip or hook, followed by a thesis (this movie was good or this movie was bad)--and a general plot summary of the premise (what was the film about?). Body paragraphs are generally focusing on 1 of the topics above (editing, special effects, direction, acting, writing, etc.), and a conclusion: reasons to see (or not see) the film. Remember to give reasons for your criticism and support your opinions!

NOTE: Remember that full-length film titles are ITALICIZED!

After you complete your film review, please upload it to our Google Classroom. The review is due on Wednesday at the start of class.

If you finish your review, please continue to write your interactive fiction project. See previous posts for details.

HOMEWORK: Complete your film review for Ready Player One. Work on your interactive fiction project.
