The Critic A critic comments the content of a certain subject to expose the good and bad, the strengths and weaknesses of this subject The structure behind the critic Introduction : - Brought up subject - Presentation of the subject - Description of the subject and presentation of the criticized aspects Developpement : You have to write one paragraph per aspect. Each paragraph includes : - the aspect; - your point of view on the aspect; - support your PoV using facts or by deduction. Conclusion : - Short summary of your aspects; - Add a new aspect (just introduce it. Eg. : although the scenario and soundtrack were awesome, what can we say about the actors?). The content Presentation of the subject: What is the subject? What are the aspects you will write about? (An aspect can be described as a division of the subject. For example, if your subject is a movie, you could give your opinion on the soundtrack and the scenario. Your two aspects would then be the soundtrack and the scenario.) Description of the subject: You have to give a lot of information so that the reader of your text knows and understands what you are writing about and your opinion on it. The aspects: An aspect (usually two or three in a text of this level) has to clearly show your point of view. It has to contain proofs consisting of facts or observations either from your understanding of the subject or logical deductions. Make sure to describe your experience as a spectator/reader. Global opinion: Your critic has to end up on a global opinion on the subject. Your opinion is based on what you thought of the aspects. (For example, if my aspects are the soundtrack and the scenario, and you disliked both of them, your general opinion on the movie is that it was bad.) Is the subject recommendable? Why and for whom?
