This review of the film "The Box" starts a bit unconventional. For some reason Rossiter decided to start his review like he'd already written half of it. I must say i haven't seen the film, yet, but i did enjoy Richard Kelly's previous cult sensation "Donnie Darko". It also seems Mr Drake did as well by mentioning it throughout the review and at one point discribing the film as 'brilliant'. He also shows much praise towards Richard Kelly's recent movie "The Box".
After a brief synopsis of the film, Rossiter talks about the strengths of the film compared to Director Richard Kelly's previous film "Southland Tales". He then goes on to compare the actor's work in this film to their own previous films including referencing Frank Langella's previous Oscar nomination for his previous film "Frost/Nixon". He then summises with some final critique on the film including "It is loosely constructed, sometimes from parts that don’t come together." Despite this reviews strange introduction, it was still well written and also very informative whilst not revealing too much about the plot.
Movie reviews are different to news stories as, can be seen in the link, reviews are an artistic critique whilst news stories provide a neutral recount of an event.
