A key thing about the review page is the strong use of images from the film, possibly as a way of further promotion but mostly in order to grab the reader's attention. The reader opens the page, sees the spread of pictures, is drawn to the article, article convinces reader to see film whether review is positive or negative. (For example, a negative review will sometimes create curiosity within a filmgoer to see if the product really is as bad as the reviewer stated). In the case of this review of Avatar, it is worth noting that some of the images contain glimpses of the impressive CGI (Computer Generated Imagery) showcased in the film, this is presumably meant as another incentive to see the film. The images are neatly arranged with a border in a linear fashion to make the article seem tidy. They consist of a main large image with a medium sized image directly adjacent followed by several smaller images underneath the main one and help to give the reader a sense of what genre the film is likely to be. Moving on, the text used overlaps over the images and is consistently of the same size and font with the exception of the title which uses a larger font and the text directly beneath which is in a different colour whereas the rest of the article is written in white-coloured text.
