Published Review Vs. My Review

     My reflection of Project NIM compared to a published review were very distinct. A review posted in The New York Times. The published review gives more of a summary of the movie, while I based my review mostly on how I felt after watching the documentary. I summarized a bit to explain why I felt the way I felt. Furthermore, the published review tries to make the review apply to all audience, while my reflection is more biased. I explained what I thought was wrong and inhumane about the film, whereas The New York Times keeps their review more professional. The author does state that the documentary was immoral at some points. However, I go on to explain the reason why. Moreover, I added questions and concerns I had after watching the documentary. The published review captures the relationships in great detail, but I focused on the film overall. I think the published review captured the true meaning behind Project NIM  without it being a personal review like mine.
