The document summarizes multiple film reviews from Timeout Magazine. It notes that the reviews use formal but informative language to provide both positive and negative criticism of the films. Large images and red star ratings at the top of the reviews help attract readers. The consistent layout across reviews features an image, rating, and balanced criticism to help readers decide if they want to watch the movies.

1. The overall language used in the
magazine review is quite informal, its
coming from someone's point of view
and talking on behalf of others, this
context suggests that the writer is
writing on personal views and how he
thinks people will react to this movie.
The writer has given good and bad
criticism for the viewers, it states how
the movie has been made well, but the
actual content and storyline is too
familiar, and its something view would
have watched prior to “The Cave”.
The layout of the whole film review is
quite simple but holds all the
information, it has a large image from
the film which will attract views, and the
text around it is written in good
language.
He mentions points that would put off a reader but also interest them
into watching it.
He states that there are no A-list characters, this comes across as off
putting but then he goes onto describe how this meant he didn’t
know who would die first, which made it fun.

main character from the film, but in the
corner of the picture it says “Katherine
(Headery) takes an ill advised dip”, the way
the caption is worded indicates that the way
she acted throughout the film wasn’t as
good as everyone might have anticipated.
The picture is quite clear and its from the
film, so it gives the readers something to link
to the actual review.

3. The first little paragraph
has shows all the main
people who made the
film, this might show the
readers anyone quite well
known who they may
already know.
The quote in the middle
“Borrows so many ideas
from previous genre films”
is in big bold font bang
smack in middle of the
whole film review, it
indicates to the readers
that the film is no original
and that they may see
similar ideas from
previous films.
At the bottom for reference the name of
the writer has been given. The way the
review has been written is different to how
other magazine articles have written
there’s. Its not question and answer, he
focuses on the main parts of the film, and
went wrong in his eyes for the film.

4. The language used in this
review is formal but informing
at the same time, it gives
readers a way to decide
whether they would like to
actually watch the movie. The
criticism is good and bad, but it
gives a over all idea on the
movie. The writer embeds his
own personal view throughout
the review.

reader straight away.

stars, as seen in previous
film reviews from Timeout
Magazine, the layout
through out all the reviews
is constant the whole way
through.
