- Their aim is to share an experience and opinions about something, which can be a movie, a hotel, etc. 

- They are normally written using informal language.

- Some of the useful expressions that can be used when reviewing a film are: "not to be missed", "not worth watching", "the film is close to reality", "one of the most powerful scenes is", etc, etc.]]> 2020-08-22 19:50:24 UTC https://padlet.com/iniakifierro/pjuknqj5xihaed81/wish/693015446 Planning iniakifierro https://padlet.com/iniakifierro/pjuknqj5xihaed81/wish/693015954 - As with every piece of writing, before writing a review you must plan it. 

- When you find yourself in the CAE exam you won’t really have the time to put in an extensive planning, but you must think what you would like to include in the different parts of the review so as not to start improvising in the middle of the test.
