Assignment: Movie Review
Arguments based on facts and reason
(Based on Everything's an Argument)
Write a 1.5 to 2 page response on the following.
Find a full review of a recent film that you either enjoyed or did not enjoy. Using testimony from that review, write a brief argument to your classmates explaining why they should see that movie (or why they should avoid it), being sure to use evidence from the review fairly and reasonably. You must include a copy of your film review with your paper.
• In your paragraph I: Give the type, title, and the source of the film review and some general introductory comments on your film.
• In paragraph II: Who is arguing and what (if any) credentials or expertise does this person have? What purpose is the writer trying to achieve? (See the subheadings in Chapter 4)
• In paragraph III: Who is the argument directed to? (Who is the target audience?)
• In paragraph IV: Do you think the argument's purpose was achieved? Why or why not? What appeals does the reviewer make and how?
