Example review 

Titanic: A Love Story on the Ship

Titanic is a sad love story between Jack and Rose. The ship sinks, and many people die. I enjoyed the movie because the acting is good and the music is beautiful. I recommend it to anyone who likes romance and drama. It's a very emotional movie.

Select a movie, book, or something else you've read or watched and write a 50-word review about it.
