Essay structure and content: 51%
Introduction: 46%
Opening: |
I noticed that you started your essay with a question to engage the reader's attention. That's good. Your score for this feature = 100/100
|
Context: |
Paragraph contains film terms, like plot
|
I
checked your introduction for about nine hundred film-related terms to
see if you had provided your reader with some background information to
let your reader know what film your essay is about. I was able to find
only one match. That doesn't seem to me to be enough context for a film
analysis essay. Make sure to mention a few details about the director, cast, release date, or genre. Your score for this feature = 30/100
| |
Thesis: |
Thesis contains character, plot
|
I
checked your thesis statement for about two dozen literary terms to see
if you are doing a literary analysis of the film you have chosen. I
found two. That's good. Your score for this feature = 100/100
| |
The
last sentence of your introduction doesn't express an opinion. You can
improve your score for this feature of your essay by strengthening your
claim. Here is an example of a debatable thesis statement that makes a
strong claim: Ridley Scott's Blade Runner was a revolutionary
science-fiction film, both in terms of its use of visual effects and its
masterful transformation of the genre of science-fiction into an art
form. Your score for this feature = 70/100

|
Second body paragraph: 32%
Topic sentence: |
The
first sentence of your second body paragraph states a fact without
making a strong claim. To improve your score, make a stronger claim that
you can elaborate on with the rest of the paragraph. For example, you
could write something like this: Second, Ridley Scott's superb movie has transformed science-fiction from escapism into a serious art form. Your score for this feature = 0/100
|

have used a transition word to build cohesion. That's good. Use one or
two more transition words and phrases for a higher score. Some examples
of transitions that you can use are as follows: along the same lines,

to illustrate, as a matter of fact, there is no question that, without a
doubt. Your score for this feature = 60/100

Quote: |
Your
second body paragraph is missing something. I expected you to report
comments and reviews by other people, using words like said, wrote,
claimed, etc. You can improve your score by reporting reviews you have
read online that were written by expert film critics. It will lend
credibility to your claims if you can show how experts agree with you. Your score for this feature = 0/100
|

have not used any double quotation marks in your body paragraph. Use
double quotation marks like this ". (The double quotation mark is a

this: In conclusion, Blade Runner was ahead of its time in terms of
the visual effects it offered and the way it treated science-fiction as a
