cinemafunk.com
I was looking at different blogs that review movies as I wanted to learn how to develop my style. One blog I stumbled upon was cinemafunk.com. The site reviews movies both modern and classical as films ranging from mainstream blockbusters to esoteric indie flicks. The blog consists of multiple reviewers who I assume review films they are interested in. The review style used at this blog involves switching between background information on the film and critical analysis and back, which allows for information to be easily presented to the reader. The reviewers use references to other movies to reveal what the movie is like without giving spoilers as well as compare and contrast. The reviewers also does not use a score system. I disagree with the reviewer on some films, but his criticisms are always legitimate. The reviewers also seems to have a sense of humor at times, which crops up in some of their reviews. Their reviews tend to be on the short side. The reviews usually consist of five or six small paragraphs. However, some of the reviewers will go on much longer trying to dissect the film on a symbolic level even when the reviewer say the film is not really good. The blog is updated pretty regularly in fact they updated the site yesterday as of my writing this. In addition to reviews, the site also does top ten film lists at the end of the year as well as editorials. The site is a lot more professional than mine, and it has a larger variety of tastes in film than I do.
