Art in Film reviews include an indepth review and rating of the film’s composition, realism, artistic, cinematography, musical score, direction, writing, and whether or not our reviewer likes the story/film enough to recommend film to a friend. Ratings given on a 1 to 10 scale, where a rating of 1 is awful and 10 is excellent. In addition to rating components of a film, we also provide reviewers with a written questionnaire.
Film review:
Neruda was a brilliantly made film combining a well written and directed story with Neruda’s poetry. All reviewers highly recommend their friends view this film. Our reviewers mostly women and seniors.
