Lesson
WRITING THE REVIEW
5
Saqueton and Uychoco (2016) said that writing is hard because one hopes to write using
the best possible words to articulate the best possible thoughts in the most creative way
imaginable. Review paper is an informed and insightful perspective of art, popular culture, and
the world.

What’s In

In the previous lesson, you have learned the different critical approaches that you may use
in writing a critique/ review especially when you are evaluating literary pieces. Let me ask you:

Why is it important to learn the different critical approaches when writing a review or a
critique? Explain briefly.

What’s New

Forming Opinions based on Facts

Consider these examples and be guided by the following questions:

1. What is the opinion of the writer of each example given?

2. Are the facts used related/ connected to the opinions presented?
Example A:

Many teenagers are pressured by their peers to consume alcohol to gain social
acceptance. However, students should refrain from drinking alcohol because it can negatively
affect their studies. A study by Lexing and Wright (2003) of 1,350 men and women aged 50 to
60 reveals that, compared to nondrinkers, those who had a daily consumption of at least 30 cc
of alcohol are 10% more likely to suffer from Alzheimer’s disease and other forms of dementia.
A study by Crompton et al. (2005) also shows a 12% increase in liver cirrhosis among those
who regularly drank alcohol, compared to non-drinkers.

WBLS-OBE MELC-Aligned Self-Learning Module English 11 - EAPP 5

Example B:

The story is confusing as there are many gaps in the narrative. The audience is not told
about how the problem was resolved in the end. The motive of the crime was not explained.
One character that had been killed inexplicably came back to life in the middle.

Facts vs Opinions
⚫ Facts are verifiable statements while opinions are expressions of a person’s feelings,
attitudes, or beliefs that are neither true nor false. An opinion leaves more room for
disagreement.
⚫ You must remember that you need facts to support opinions. Hence, there is a need to
gather the facts first for you to be able to come up with a more informed opinion or an
opinion that relies on evidence instead of limited personal experience.

Activity 1. Emoji Party!

Direction: Below are some facts gathered from various sources. Choose the letter of the emoji
that best represents your opinion. Then, formulate your opinion based on the given
facts.

1. Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19)

Facts are from World Health Organization (2020).
➢ The COVID-19 virus spreads primarily through droplets of saliva or discharge from the
nose when an infected person coughs or sneezes.
➢ Most people infected with the COVID-19 virus will experience mild to moderate
respiratory illness and recover without requiring special treatment.
➢ Currently, there are no specific vaccines or treatments for COVID-19.

2. Social Distancing
Facts are from Cone Health (2020) and DiSalvo (2020).
➢ Remain out of “congregate settings” as much as possible.
➢ Avoid mass gatherings.
➢ Maintain distance of about 6 feet from others when possible.
➢ Data from the Spanish Flu pandemic suggests that strict social distancing and other
measures slowed disease spread and decreased mortality rates by as much as 50% in
cities that used them.

 What is It

Review Paper
One of the most common types of papers that you will be writing is a review or a critique.
Hence, you are expected to be objective and honest in order to come up with a critical
evaluation of a work of art, place, industrial design, or any item you are asked to examine. You
are not going to simply give your opinion. You must support your views with substantial facts
and arguments in order to convince your readers of your work’s credibility and validity. You
must also provide the right description of the work being evaluated to ensure its accuracy.

Wyson (2016) defined review as a text that “allows one to pass judgment on a certain food,
film, restaurant, product, or almost anything that can be procured so that the readers of the
work would be able to make more informed decisions as consumers.” Today, reviews no
longer simply come in the form of a written text. A lot of reviews are already uploaded by video
content creators or influencers in social media.

Let’s Read!
Read the sample movie review as well as the annotations below.

TIP: Note how the writer organized the review and how he/she expounded the thesis
statement/general impression in the body of the review paper.

Techniques in Presenting Ideas Convincingly
Persuasive presentations (and writings) that are “sticky,” memorable, and lingering in the
minds and hearts of audiences, have been shown to have the following characteristics, as
summarized in Made to Stick by Chip and Dan Heath (cited in Digital Promise 2015).

Make It Simple. You should have a clear, simple core message and
focus, captured in a compelling phrase or metaphor.
Reveal the Unexpected. Doing or saying something unexpected
builds interest and captures audience attention and relates back to
the core focus or a key point of the presentation.
Use Concrete Examples. Use real-life, everyday examples, stories,
or even physical objects to illustrate and demonstrate key messages.
Examples can also be found in the form of social proof like
testimonials and outside referrals.
Be Credible. Establish personal credibility or the credibility of other
experts that support the core message early in the presentation.
Touch Emotions. Give the audience the opportunity to feel what the
presenter is talking about, especially through video or first-hand
accounts of the kind of experiences being spoken about.
Tell Stories. Use the most powerful tool to communicate both ideas
and feelings, stories that go to the core of the message. This strategy
captures the hearts of the readers and hence allows them to easily
relate themselves to your points.

Clark (2007) added the following techniques:

The Power of “Because”. The strategy itself does make sense if

you think about it. We don’t like to be told things or asked to take
action without a reasonable explanation. When you need people to
be receptive to your line of thinking, always give reasons why.

Comparisons as Your Best Friend. Metaphors, similes and

analogies are the persuasive writer’s best friends. When you can
relate your scenario to something that the reader already accepts as
true, you’re well on your way to convincing someone to see things
your way.

I Object! If you present your case and someone is left thinking

“yeah, but…”, well, you’ve lost. Address possible objections to get
rid of bias. This can be a tough one but if you really know your
subject, then the arguments against your points would be fairly
obvious.

WBLS-OBE MELC-Aligned Self-Learning Module English 11 - EAPP 9

Raising Contrary Views in an Appropriate Manner

When writing a review, you must present both sides – positive and negative. Since a
review may tend to become subjective – as others may have different opinions towards the
same subject of review – you have to anticipate possible objections against your points or
comments. You need to address these possible objections in an appropriate manner to give
the reader an impression that you are impartial, balanced, and bias-free.
Here are some points you need to consider based on the article Incorporating Objections
and Opposing Views (n.d.):

• Remember that no one is ever completely wrong. Concede where

the opposing views are better than your own. Complement those who
oppose you when they make a good point.
• Avoid distorting the opposing views. Present differing points of
view honestly, fairly and completely.
• Understand the point of view. When you encounter these varying
opinions, get curious. Try to figure out why smart and rational people
would hold those positions. What evidence do they look at? How do
they interpret that evidence? In this case, evidence may come in the
form of their observations from the movie or some principles applied
in making films.
• Prove your point. Introducing opposing viewpoints is necessary, but
do not stop there. If you do so, readers will no longer consider your
points/ comments as they may interpret that you completely conceded
the opposing views’ points, that is, you accepted the other side’s
points as completely true and correct. Go back to your point and prove
that you are right!

Example:
The confessional denouement(1) may feel a little
contrived(2) and its revelations may feel a little
uncomfortable, but seeing events unfold from another
perspective gives Lea and Tonyo's love story the bubbly
thrill of serendipity(3) and a surreal(4) taste of rich
bittersweet (Hawson 2017).
(1) denouement: the final part of a play, movie, or
narrative
(2) contrived: deliberately created rather than rising
naturally
(3) serendipity: the occurrence and development of
events by chance in a happy or beneficial way
(4) surreal: not seeming real; like a dream
Hawson 2017

WBLS-OBE MELC-Aligned Self-Learning Module English 11 - EAPP 10

 Real Talk
Hawson (2017), in his movie review “Kita Kita is Not Your Typical Rom-Com”, has a
positive impression towards the movie he is reviewing. However, the paragraph above
presents something that is quite “negative” about the film to make it balanced and to
anticipate the possible objections against his points. After presenting his negative
comment, he shifted to the positive side of the film.

Writing Criteria
Criterion (plural, criteria) is an accepted standard used in making decision or judgment
about something (Encarta Dictionaries). In preparing to write a movie review, it is important to
have a set of evaluation criteria. Having this would allow you to have a clear focus on the
aspects of the movie you wish to evaluate.
For a review to be credible, the writer should be able to come up with criteria. By doing so,
you will be able to present your claims in a more objective manner. Hence, your general
impression should be based on accurate observations.
The set of criteria should be supported by question/s that allow the reviewer to make a
clear and objective evaluation of the different aspects of the movie.

Below are examples of a criteria, together with questions

supporting them:
Plot. Is the sequence of events logical and entertaining? Are
there twists and turns in the story? What story techniques were
used in the film?
Acting. Were the actors and actresses in character? Is their
acting compelling? Do they project their voices well?
You can notice that the questions can be answered with a
judgment on the aspects of plot and acting instead of merely
requiring the writer to state facts about it.

Activity 2. Let’s Evaluate!
Read the following comments below which were taken from various reviews published
online. Then, answer the questions that follow.
A. After all, the title Kita Kita, or “I see you,” is meant to be touching. It’s probably meant to
symbolize how Tonyo sees through Alessandra’s guardedness, and how Alessandra,
because of her blindness, is able to love Tonyo for who he is, even if he’s not conventionally
good-looking. After all, isn't that all anyone wants—to be seen and loved? But because
Tonyo started out as a stalker, the words “Kita kita” take on a more sinister tone (Gutierrez
2017).
1. Give one positive impression the writer has about the movie.
2. Give one negative impression the writer has about the movie.
3. What expression/s was/were used by the writer to present both positive and negative
impressions?
____________________________________________________________________
____________________________________________________________________
_________________________________________________________________
B. I did like the cinematography and production design, and the movie was a visual treat
with hints of Wes Anderson and Wong Kar Wai here and there. But in a movie where we are
supposedly reminded to look beyond the superficial, the movie hardly delivers as it
reinforces patriarchal norms — where men can do whatever they want even if women say
no, and where women are expected to eventually develop feelings because of a man’s
“effort,” welcome or otherwise (Ching 2017).
1. Give one positive impression the writer has about the movie.
2. Give one negative impression the writer has about the movie.
3. What expression/s was/were used by the writer to present both positive and negative
impressions?
____________________________________________________________________
____________________________________________________________________
_________________________________________________________________
C. The first thing that struck us with "Kita Kita" is how simple the story started and
eventually blossomed into something complicated and unexpected. The duality and
parallelism of Lea's and Tonyo's stories are at the crux of the film's charm and made the
film interesting from start to finish. But this is also the part where the film takes a slight
tumble in our opinion. The film devolves into a story of stalking. Others may take the issue
lightly, when compared to the grand scheme of things, but others might also find it creepy,
unnerving even an unacceptable revelation (Chua 2017).
1. Give one positive impression the writer has about the movie.
2. Give one negative impression the writer has about the movie.
3. What expression/s was/were used by the writer to present both positive and negative
impressions?

 What I Have Learned

Write the letter of the correct answer. Use a separate sheet of paper in writing your answers.

1. Many teenagers are pressured by their peers to consume alcohol to gain

social acceptance. However, students should refrain from drinking alcohol
because it can negatively affect their studies. A study by Lexing and Wright
(2003) of 1,350 men and women aged 50 to 60 reveals that, compared to
nondrinkers, those who had a daily consumption of at least 30 cc of alcohol
are 10% more likely to suffer from Alzheimer’s disease and other forms of
dementia. A study by Crompton et al. (2005) also shows a 12% increase in
liver cirrhosis among those who regularly drank alcohol, compared to
nondrinkers.

Did the writer use the right facts to support his/her opinion?
A. Yes, because the writer gave facts about the effects of alcohol on someone’s
health.
B. Yes, because if the alcohol affects one’s health, it may also affect his/her
studies.
C. No, because the facts provided may no longer be true in the present.
D. No, because the writer limited his/her topic to teenagers but gave facts about
those aged 50 to 60.

2. What technique in presenting ideas convincingly asks the writer to give the audience an
opportunity to feel what the presenter is talking about?
A. Use concrete examples C. Be credible
B. Reveal the unexpected D. Touch emotions

3. Which is the most acceptable explanation to the given technique of presenting ideas
convincingly?
“I object!”

A. One should contradict the opinions of other people.

B. One should anticipate possible violent reactions to his/her claims.
C. One should focus more on his/her opinion rather than that of the others.
D. One should elaborate the claims and make sure they are not left hanging.

4. People get impatient with long-winding presentations. What technique should the writer
use to prevent people from getting impatient?
A. Reveal the unexpected. C. Make it simple.
B. Use comparisons. D. Touch emotions.

5. The statement below explains this principle in raising contrary views in an appropriate
manner.
“Concede where the opposing views are better than your own.”

A. Remember that no one is ever completely wrong.

B. Avoid distorting the opposing views.
C. Understand the point of view.
D. Prove your point.

WBLS-OBE MELC-Aligned Self-Learning Module English 11 - EAPP 14

For items 6-7, read the text below then answer the questions that follow.
Opposing views claim that Tan-ok Festival should no longer be held because it is
costly, and it promotes competition rather than cultural diversity. While it is true that
it is costly because each town needs to allocate budget for the props, costumes,
and incentives for the dancers, one cannot deny that it helps in making a town,
especially the remote towns, more popular for tourists. One example is the Tadek
Festival of Nueva Era which won first runner-up in the 2015 edition of Tan-ok. The
rising popularity of a town helps in the improvement of its tourism sector. This
would, in turn, benefit the economy of the place. Also, it gives the Ilocano people a
chance to discover the diversity of culture of our own province.
6. What point of the opposition was acknowledged in the paragraph as valid?
A. Nueva Era won first runner-up in Tan-ok Festival 2015.
B. Tan-ok Festival requires towns to allocate significant amount of money.
C. The festival helps in the promotion of the diversity of culture.
D. Tourism sector would be benefited if Tan-ok will still be held.

7. How did the paragraph counter the opposing view?

A. by presenting an example
B. by presenting quotations
C. by presenting conditional statement
D. by presenting statistics

8. The review must provide the right description of the work being evaluated by giving its
summary and/or background details. What principle does this statement pertain to?
A. balanced C. accurate
B. evaluative D. critical

9. Bryan wrote a movie review of Paper Towns and gave a positive general impression.
However, he enumerated more suggestions for improvement than praise or positive
comments regarding the movie. What principle of writing a review did he violate?
A. The review should have a clear general impression that it communicates to its
readers.
B. The details presented in the body should adequately support the main idea of the
review.
C. The presentation of the criticisms should be presentable to the general
audience.
D. The author should maintain an objective stance towards the subject matter.
