Analysis Of The Movie Dear Zachary - 821 Words

This review was very structured and it contained all the components of a well-written analysis of the movie Dear Zachary. The author Scott Mendelson, a film critic from Valley Scene Magazine, introduced the movie in subtle words and not gave anything away for people who did not watch it.

This review written by Brian Orndorf had many insights about the story and the production itself. It had the most depth and details supporting the claim than the other two reviews.
