Time Bandits Critical Review

Write your detailed specific critical opinions of the film Time Bandits.  You will cite evidence from the film to support your opinions, but do not summarize the film.  This critical review will be written in paragraphs and be at least 200 words.

You are the one and only expert of your opinions.  Write about your specific opinions about the specific elements from Time Bandits that stood out to you.  You can write about specific characters, actors, overall character development, dialogue, cinematography, story, plot, etc.

Include a picture relating to Time Bandits (movie poster, etc.) to begin your review just like I did for this post.

1)  Begin your critical review with a general synopsis of the story (short summary- 2 sentences maximum) followed by your overall opinion of the film.  Do not include spoilers anywhere in your review. 

2)  Go in to detail about the film elements that you write about.  Write about each element in its own paragraph. Include examples from the film to support your opinions. For example, if you liked/disliked the little boy, you could write a paragraph about what you liked/didn't like about the character citing examples from the film. (3 paragraphs minimum) 

3)  Conclude your review with a final paragraph summarizing your opinion and giving a final recommendation (thumbs up, thumbs down, 3 out of 4 stars, C+, etc.).  You choose how you will grade each film, but use the same grading system for each film review.

This outline will give you a 5 paragraph critical review.  You can write more than 5 paragraphs if you so desire.
