A review is a critical assessment of a film, book, or other work, based on its strengths and weaknesses. In 2002, “Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets” received professional reviews from critics, moviegoers, and publishing sources.
Reviews are significant because they provide insights, recommendations, and other helpful information that can influence people’s decisions about whether to consume a particular work. The concept has been applied to various artistic, literary, and cultural domains throughout history, with early examples found in ancient Greece.
