About The Limerick Review
Welcome all to The Limerick Review,
For feedback on films; both old and new,
We sort classic from crime,
In a quick five-line rhyme,
Just browse or leave your point-of-view.
The Limerick Review is a film review site with a twist. All reviews take the form of a five-line poem, using the classic limerick structure. Our reviews are short and sharp, making them quick to write, read and refer to friends.
What is a limerick?
The limerick is a unique form of poetry, which is intended to be fun or comical for the reader. It fits within a strict rhyme scheme, which takes the form of A-A-B-B-A. Here is an example of a Limerick Review:
While Fincher is yet to upset,
Network is still not his best,
Timberlake’s tolerated,
But shouldn’t be nominated,
Eisenberg deserves the credit he gets.
