... Hardly.

And unlike you, I base my words on film-making, which you have no credible knowledge of.

[Wizzdom]

I didn't enjoy it that much

Ok in ways I tend to agree with how you're looking at it but the thing is films are made to entertain, if the movie at all entertains you then the movie has forfilled it's purpose, you can't say a movie is bad because of the way it's made, it could have a stupid plot or something which may be the case with this movie in perticular but that and choice of actors/actresses is all you can go on with an agruement like that, if you're reviewing the way the movie is made fine but if you're reviewing the movie itself and then go on saying the movie wasn't made how I like it so it's crap then it's not really saying the movie itself is crap but how it was made it crap, which is completely the wrong way to go about it in this situation, yes the movie may not satisfy your tastes but you still shouldn't say the movie itself is crap if you're basing your opinion on how it was actually made

I've yet to see this one, I probably wont until whenever it's on Disney, I quite liked the first one but the plot was kind of too easy to follow, same old thing really "guy does one thing, guy gets interested in something else, guy likes the new thing more, guy gets really good, guy gets in fight with girl, guy and girl make up, guy wins big competition" hmm..Same as High school musical 1 and 2 :rolleyes:

[Misawa]

My words aren't based on my tastes in film, they are based on entertainment factor and the film-makers construction.

Aha, you need to read a lot more comments that I have made re: film in this forum.

Misawa seems to think they are a 'film guru' :> (lol)

[Misawa]

Do you write, produce, edit and direct films? Unless you can, don't patronise what I do. And based on the fact that you wrote 'they' when writing about a single person, you probably don't do what I do.

[Art]

What about 'They used to go to my school' ?

[Nereo]

I was gonna go see it but everyone has put me off LOL

Misawa probably is the Film Guru on habbox, he does know what he's talking about but when he gives his opinion of a film whether it's good or not he doesn't just take how entertaining it was but he then says about how well the movie is made which is completly the wrong thing to do, film reviewers don't give low ratings based on the film-making but on the elements of the film itself e.g. sound, cast, plot etc. they wont let things like camera angles used, script used because that's not reviewing the film that's reviewing the production team, the only time the actual film-making could be mentioned in a review is if it is REALLY bad

I don't comment on camera shots when I'm reviewing, only analysing and/or studying. Looking at the script is vital for reviewing a film - dialogue is one of the key factors of a film - bad dialogue brings films down. The process of film-making involves casting, diegetic and non-diegetic sound, and the plot - which is from the script. All films start off with a screenplay. The elements that you have suggested are all in the process of film-making, and yes, reviews do go on how the pictures are made. Saying that reviews should be based on "entertainment" is unintelligent because a plethora of factors result in levels of entertainment. Reviews that aren't broad aren't helpful.

but his comment on that particular film might have been correct.. you can't say unless you've actually seen it yourself.

[RedStratocas]

by the looks of it, it looks like a very accurate portrayal of every day american teen life. we always dress up and have dance offs, and somehow we all have mad balancing skills for reasons no one ever questions.

yeah, all that was sarcastic. i heard a bunch of people say that the dance sequences are good, but if you can't overlook how ridiculous and contrived the plot is, it will be a horrible movie experience. i can't really do that, so i guess i'm skipping it.

I'm sorry but isn't that why people go to see films and read reviews? People want to see a film to be entertained, you don't go to the movies and pay close attention to the sound of it or how it is made you just want to see the movie, if a review doesn't go by the entertainment factors of a movie then it's not a reviewing the movie and not a huge amount of people will really give a crap, I don't go to the cinema and watch a movie hoping to see some kick *** camera angles I go to be entertained, I make my mini-movies to entertain, the only people that need to worry about the film-making are the people making the film, obviously a bad dialoge is the only thing a viewer and reviewer should need to comment on, if you're doing a review on how the film was made then sure go on about the elements of the creation of the film and forget about the entertainment factor but if you're writing a review to inform people about the movie you don't say it's rubbish then go on about the film-making being rubbish when most people just want to see it to be entertained and not care about how badly the film was made

[Virgin Mary]

Right, it fails because Channing Tatum isn't in it.

[luce]

[edible]
