Six Factors In Choosing A Movie
“What is it about a movie that grabs your curiosity and excites you enough to run to the theatre? Is it the reviews? Are you such a movie fan that you watch every movie possible? Is it the genre, the actors, the plot?” (Frank Bilotta).
If it weren’t for trailers these days, picking a movie would be almost impossible. Trailers are a great way to lure you into viewing that particular film, however sometimes the trailers embellish the movie too much and the movie in fact is quite disappointing. How many times have you thought to yourself, ‘I had more enjoyment watching the trailer, than I do the film!’. Frank makes a valid point that sometimes a controversial film, or even a specific director/actor can lure a large audience in without even using an appealing trailer. For instance, the new film Inception. When viewing the trailer, I and most of the audience were left baffled and unaware of what this potential film is all about; yet because Leonardo DiCaprio, and director Christopher Nolan were involved, opening night was quite a success! Statistically, people are comforted with familiarity. So the next time you, or you and a friend/significant other want to see a film use Frank’s Six Fun Factor’s to choose your movie wisely! That way you won’t leave the theater dissatisfied and sick from all the movie food you consumed in trying to keep yourself occupied during the movie! (Don’t think you’re the only one, we’ve all went down that road, and my what a wrong choice that was!).
