There are a million movies out there that people want to see, but how can you tell if they are good.

One way to tell if a movie is good; is by viewing the preview. In the previews you want to look for a main point in the movie. What I mean by main point is looking for if it has a story line. What I look for is if it starts out with a good story line. When a preview comes on it has to grab my attention right away. Making sure that it has a good story first is the most important thing that you should look for if you want to know if the movie is good or not. Story lines are the biggest impact of the whole movie, because without a great story there is no movie. I have wasted money on movies that I thought would be good, but turned out they were not, because there was no story whats ever that took place. Another thing to know if a movie is good or not is how long it is sometimes.

The length of the movie can be a good way to know sometimes too. I mean if you want to watch a great movie it does not have to be four hours long or anything like that. Now if a movie is one hour it can be very good, but then again it can be bad. Sometimes a movie that is longer movies can be more exciting and good, but one flaw is sometimes it can drag through the whole movie and it gets boring after awhile. The shorter movies are okay too. One flaw with that is you can have the movie just crammed into fifty five minutes and that is not good at all. The length would be one way of knowing. There are other ways of knowing if a movie is good. If it has a beginning, middle, and end.

With those three qualities it will make a movie really good. As long as it has the three main points the movie is good quality. For example the best movies have a good start, a nice middle, and a awesome ending. A movie cannot lack in any of those three subjects or else it will make the whole movie bad. So if you are going to go see a movie, watch it and see if it has a good start and the other two examples. If so then you are in for a very good movie, but if not then I am sorry that you had to waste all your money.
