Lesson
1
Writing the Reaction Paper/
Review / Critique
What’s In
Module 3 taught you the appropriate language, manner and critical approaches
in writing views. In this lesson, you will learn what a reaction paper is and write your
own reaction paper. Keep learning with fun!
Take a look at this text. Is this a GOOD reaction paper?
8
CO_Q1_SHS English for Academic and
Professional Purposes _ Module 4
1. Is this how one should write a reaction paper? Why?
2. What is a GOOD reaction paper?
The text above is not the appropriate way of writing a reaction paper. As what
you have learned in Module 3, your views must be based on facts and written in an
appropriate language and approach. How should you write a reaction paper?
What Is It
REACTION PAPER is a form of paper writing in which the writer expresses his
ideas and opinions about what has been read or seen. Reaction paper is evaluated
due to the writer's communication skills and only then due the unique ideas and the
content. This paper writing may be informal, two pages long. As all essays, a reaction
paper comprises introduction, body, and conclusion. In introduction the writers states
the main premise, in a body he expresses his ideas and in conclusion summarizes the
results. The reaction paper is not a summary of the article although information should
be included.
Source: https://www.bestessays.com/glossary/reaction_paper.php
You may be asked to write a reaction paper indirectly, and you have to get the
intention of the examiner fast. A good example is that you may be asked to give a
critique about a certain subject, and this would constitute a reaction paper, or to write
a review about a literature book; it also falls into the same group.
Source: https://www.aresearchguide.com/write-reaction-paper.html
Despite the fact that you are writing about your reactions, thoughts and
impressions, you still need to follow an appropriate structure. So make sure to:
• Read the material carefully
9
CO_Q1_SHS English for Academic and
Professional Purposes _ Module 4
Whether it is a book, article, or a film, make sure to read or watch it very carefully.
Sometimes, you will need to repeat this procedure for a couple of times.
• Mark interesting places while reading/watching
This will help you focus on the aspects that impressed you the most and come
back to them after you are done with reading or watching.
• Write down your thought while reading/watching
Doing so, you won’t forget any important ideas that came to your head.
• Come up with a thesis statement
Use your notes to formulate a central idea you will develop in your further work.
Then put it in one sentence and make it your thesis statement.
• Compose an outline
Every time you write an academic paper, you need to make an outline. Try at least
once and you will see how helpful an outline could be!
• Construct your paper
Only when all the preparations are done, start writing a paper itself.
SOURCE: https://ozzz.org/reaction-paper/
The first part of your paper should contain information on the author and the
topic. You need to write down the main ideas and highlight the main points of the
paper. You can use direct quotations if needed. Avoid your personal opinion in this
section. The second part should contain your personal thoughts on the subject. Focus
on a main problem or address all of them and describe your opinion. Explain how the
material can relate to the modern world, to the society or separate individuals. Back
your statements with sources if needed and make conclusions whether you support
the author or not.
Writing a reaction paper can be quite a challenging task, so many students use
examples to learn more about its structure and key features. Here are a few
recommendations, which will help you complete an outstanding reaction paper:
• Read the original article carefully and highlight the main ideas and points you
want to discuss;
• Describe your point of view and back it with additional information if needed.
Use vivid examples;
• Use various sources to make your statement more argumentative.
10
CO_Q1_SHS English for Academic and
Professional Purposes _ Module 4
There are also a few tips, which will help you to avoid common mistakes. First,
don’t give a summary of an article. You should perform your personal opinion, not an
overview. You should always back your ideas with examples. However, avoid using
examples, which are difficult to relate to the topic. With the help of these simple rules,
you will learn how to write a reaction paper and will be able to create an outstanding
work!

Miracle in Cell No. 7: Film Review
Source: https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/review/miracle-cell-no-7-film-479285
A mentally handicapped single father is wrongly accused, tried and sentenced
to death for the rape-murder of an elementary school girl in Lee Hwan- kyung’s
Miracle in Cell No. 7. The miracle of the title is the series of meetings the manhas with
his daughter while in prison in the months that lead up to his execution and the
friendship she forges with his fellow inmates. Years later, the girl grows into a woman
set on exonerating her dad with their help. Oh, this is a comedy.
But then there’s the melodramatic, tragic aspect of the film that gives it its jarring
tone. The prison scenes are told in flashback as an adult Ye-sung (Park Shin-hye)
addresses a court in an attempt to prove her father’s innocence. Her biggest ally in the
quest is Jang Min-hwan (Jeong Jin-young), warden at the time of Yong-gu’s
detention. In 1997 Jang is a grieving father whose experience and gut instinct tell him
Yong-gu may be innocent. He does his part by looking the other way when Ye-sung
12
CO_Q1_SHS English for Academic and
Professional Purposes _ Module 4
neaks in and by raising the little girl later on. He also digs around police records and
uncovers a pattern of political prosecution, police ineptitude and corruption that
supports their claims. And Lee has a penchant for heavy-handed imagery (the hot air
balloon that gets snagged on barbed wire) and histrionics (walking the green mile) that
could bear judicious editing.
It is this odd mix of broad comedy and issue-based drama that makes
Miracle so perplexing and logic-defying. It’s hard to tell if Lee has made a socialdrama
(legal shortcomings and cronyism make headlines in Korea) disguised as a goofy
comedy or a comedy with an undercurrent of righteous anger. Either way, the film
wouldn't work at all if it wasn’t packed with engaging performances by some of Korea’s
most reliable second-stringers. Ryu (War of the Arrows) waffles between caricature
and affecting as the handicapped Yong-gu, and Gal occasionally suffers an
overabundance of cute (though she’s far more interesting than Park), but the rest of
the cast more than compensate for their shortcomings, particularly Oh (The Thieves)
and Jeong (The King and the Clown). Miracle in Cell No. 7 is one of those films you
don’t want to, one you know you shouldn’t, but you just can’t help liking.

In this lesson, you will learn what a reaction paper is and write your own reaction paper. Keep learning with fun! Take a look at this text. Is this a GOOD reaction paper?
  • 10. 8 CO_Q1_SHS English for Academic and Professional Purposes _ Module 4 1. Is this how one should write a reaction paper? Why? 2. What is a GOOD reaction paper? The text above is not the appropriate way of writing a reaction paper. As what you have learned in Module 3, your views must be based on facts and written in an appropriate language and approach. How should you write a reaction paper? What Is It REACTION PAPER is a form of paper writing in which the writer expresses his ideas and opinions about what has been read or seen. Reaction paper is evaluated due to the writer's communication skills and only then due the unique ideas and the content. This paper writing may be informal, two pages long. As all essays, a reaction paper comprises introduction, body, and conclusion. In introduction the writers states the main premise, in a body he expresses his ideas and in conclusion summarizes the results. The reaction paper is not a summary of the article although information should be included. Source: https://www.bestessays.com/glossary/reaction_paper.php You may be asked to write a reaction paper indirectly, and you have to get the intention of the examiner fast. A good example is that you may be asked to give a critique about a certain subject, and this would constitute a reaction paper, or to write a review about a literature book; it also falls into the same group. Source: https://www.aresearchguide.com/write-reaction-paper.html Despite the fact that you are writing about your reactions, thoughts and impressions, you still need to follow an appropriate structure. So make sure to: • Read the material carefully
  • 11. 9 CO_Q1_SHS English for Academic and Professional Purposes _ Module 4 Whether it is a book, article, or a film, make sure to read or watch it very carefully. Sometimes, you will need to repeat this procedure for a couple of times. • Mark interesting places while reading/watching This will help you focus on the aspects that impressed you the most and come back to them after you are done with reading or watching. • Write down your thought while reading/watching Doing so, you won’t forget any important ideas that came to your head. • Come up with a thesis statement Use your notes to formulate a central idea you will develop in your further work. Then put it in one sentence and make it your thesis statement. • Compose an outline Every time you write an academic paper, you need to make an outline. Try at least once and you will see how helpful an outline could be! • Construct your paper Only when all the preparations are done, start writing a paper itself. SOURCE: https://ozzz.org/reaction-paper/ The first part of your paper should contain information on the author and the topic. You need to write down the main ideas and highlight the main points of the paper. You can use direct quotations if needed. Avoid your personal opinion in this section. The second part should contain your personal thoughts on the subject. Focus on a main problem or address all of them and describe your opinion. Explain how the material can relate to the modern world, to the society or separate individuals. Back your statements with sources if needed and make conclusions whether you support the author or not. Writing a reaction paper can be quite a challenging task, so many students use examples to learn more about its structure and key features. Here are a few recommendations, which will help you complete an outstanding reaction paper: • Read the original article carefully and highlight the main ideas and points you want to discuss; • Describe your point of view and back it with additional information if needed. Use vivid examples; • Use various sources to make your statement more argumentative.
  • 12. 10 CO_Q1_SHS English for Academic and Professional Purposes _ Module 4 There are also a few tips, which will help you to avoid common mistakes. First, don’t give a summary of an article. You should perform your personal opinion, not an overview. You should always back your ideas with examples. However, avoid using examples, which are difficult to relate to the topic. With the help of these simple rules, you will learn how to write a reaction paper and will be able to create an outstanding work! Source: https://kingessays.com/reaction-paper.php, http://feldschloessel.info/cenyfig What’s More Activity 2. Write what is Right Directions: Summarize your understanding of what you have read by filling in the blanks. You can use additional sheet if necessary. Activity 3. Read the Review Now, that you know what a reaction paper is and how to write it, let us read a review of a movie entitled, “Miracle in Cell No. 7” and evaluate whether it has the characteristics of a good reaction paper/movie review or not. But before you read it, let us define these words first. Get the meaning of these words from any dictionary.

Undercurrent 9. Compensate Miracle in Cell No. 7: Film Review Source: https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/review/miracle-cell-no-7-film-479285 A mentally handicapped single father is wrongly accused, tried and sentenced to death for the rape-murder of an elementary school girl in Lee Hwan- kyung’s Miracle in Cell No. 7. The miracle of the title is the series of meetings the manhas with his daughter while in prison in the months that lead up to his execution and the friendship she forges with his fellow inmates. Years later, the girl grows into a woman set on exonerating her dad with their help. Oh, this is a comedy. But then there’s the melodramatic, tragic aspect of the film that gives it its jarring tone. The prison scenes are told in flashback as an adult Ye-sung (Park Shin-hye) addresses a court in an attempt to prove her father’s innocence. Her biggest ally in the quest is Jang Min-hwan (Jeong Jin-young), warden at the time of Yong-gu’s detention. In 1997 Jang is a grieving father whose experience and gut instinct tell him Yong-gu may be innocent. He does his part by looking the other way when Ye-sung
  • 14. 12 CO_Q1_SHS English for Academic and Professional Purposes _ Module 4 neaks in and by raising the little girl later on. He also digs around police records and uncovers a pattern of political prosecution, police ineptitude and corruption that supports their claims. And Lee has a penchant for heavy-handed imagery (the hot air balloon that gets snagged on barbed wire) and histrionics (walking the green mile) that could bear judicious editing. It is this odd mix of broad comedy and issue-based drama that makes Miracle so perplexing and logic-defying. It’s hard to tell if Lee has made a socialdrama (legal shortcomings and cronyism make headlines in Korea) disguised as a goofy comedy or a comedy with an undercurrent of righteous anger. Either way, the film wouldn't work at all if it wasn’t packed with engaging performances by some of Korea’s most reliable second-stringers. Ryu (War of the Arrows) waffles between caricature and affecting as the handicapped Yong-gu, and Gal occasionally suffers an overabundance of cute (though she’s far more interesting than Park), but the rest of the cast more than compensate for their shortcomings, particularly Oh (The Thieves) and Jeong (The King and the Clown). Miracle in Cell No. 7 is one of those films you don’t want to, one you know you shouldn’t, but you just can’t help liking.
