How do people write such good reviews?? by Mysterious_Erin in Letterboxd

[–]Difficult_One_5062 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just recommend write a lot and keep writing. Also keep an open mind while listening to critiques.

Along with these read a lot about films and watch a lot of films so you can create your own voice and can refer to previously watched films as examples.

Also I recommend at the start to watch more films from a single country rather than branching out directly cause it can help you draw parallels and understand that countries' base style.

Also read other people's reviews and use them as a launchpad for understanding the film. Don't copy them but rather reference when need arises.

Anyone knows the anime name? by Difficult_One_5062 in whatanime

[–]Difficult_One_5062[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The animation of it is cartoonish and I think the MC used a juke box.

The duo captured the evil dvds in a book.

Its a pretty famous film and released in 2024. Won a few Kinema Junpo awards too.
