The movie review appears very basic and
contemporary and it’s modern and
professional. Three pictures are scattered
along the top of the page which will attract
audience’s attention as it shows a variety of
scenes which occur in the movie. The title is
directly under the pictures and is very
simplistic and bland. The article itself is in
two long columns which look very businesslike, suggesting this is a very formal review
of the movie, and there are three more
pictures placed neatly in the middle, again
keeping with the professional-style.
