After watching my documentary (Cartel Land) and writing my summary I read a review written by Manohla Dargis from The New York Times. In his review he went over mostly everything I included in my summary although the way he wrote it seemed much shorter and with a sort of informal style of writing. It wasn't improper writing but it felt like review was a friend explaining what he/she just saw. It felt biased because he mentioned his own feelings on how the director, Mathew Heinemann did such a great job and what parts he liked the most in the film. Compared to my summary I tried not including any feelings both good or bad. I feel like I tried to make my summary a formal as possible. You can feel the difference after reading both.
