Examples of Film Reviews 1. Changeling Sandra Hall SMH January 31‚ 2009 CHANGELING is a lurid tabloid tale that happens to be true - apart from one or two Hollywood embellishments.

What did I learn from the movie “Crash?” A lot. One lesson I learned is not to judge a book by its cover. For example‚ in the movie‚ Sandra Bullock’s character was afraid of and distrustful of her Latino locksmith because he was bald and had tattoos.
