Summary/Abstract: The paper is concerned about the differences between writing and publishing reviews in selected representatives of daily elite press – the British The Guardian, the American The New York Times and the Slovak SME. The research sample consists of reviews of eleven Oscar winning movies: American Sniper, Boyhood, Birdman: Or The Unexpected Virtue of Ignorance, Ida, Imitation Game, Interstellar, Selma, Still Alice, The Grand Budapest Hotel, Theory of Everything and Whiplash. The reviews were published from October 14th 2013 to March 8th 2015. Online versions of selected dailies published 55 film reviews altogether. The author of the paper compares different approaches to writing of one of the most popular opinion genres – review and via the use of the quantitative and qualitative content analysis points to differences between the newspaper traditions in the elite press of three different countries.
