A review can be formal or informal depending on the assignment
of the instructor. The purpose of a review is to evaluate
or express one’s feelings about something. It is a person’s
evaluation of what he/she is reviewing. A review usually makes
an argument about what they are reviewing. The opinions of
the writer must show evidence as to his/her opinions about
the work. The formality of the review is decided by whether
it is an analysis, summary, or a person’s reaction.
A formal review shows merits and context about the review.
Usually the instructor wants to know how you feel about a
movie, a concert, a book, a piece of art, or a particular
work. Two steps are needed in a review. First, the reviewer
must develop an argument about what they are reviewing. Second,
the reviewer must write an organized review. It should clearly
state the opinion of the reviewer about the work and why the
reviewer feels the way he/she does.
