The image at the top of the page takes up about 50% of the article as this shows its importance of the article/review, it is an iconic image as they are celebrities so the audience recognise them straight away. The article has 4 columns which is a standard layout for magazine article. For writing, the title is the largest bit of font, the other fonts involved in the article are different colours to make them stand out compared to the others. It uses contrasting colours of the picture and the writing to make sure that they both stand out from each other, resulting in the audience engaging themselves into the article. A white box is used on top of the image to show different comments from the review. The first line of review is bold to make it stand out from the rest of the review. The title is also written in sans serif font so it is simple and effective as well as traditional.
Again the image taken from the film takes up half of the page as well as an iconic well loved actor is shown in the preview to engage the audience. It also includes under the title all the different ratings that the film could or has been rated. It also includes a table of the predicted interest curve that the film could possibly get as it can be seen as a controversy film to its audience. It also uses bold writing where it is most important as well as it has a black box with yellow writing as it is a different part to the review.
From analysing the layout of the above magazine articles I am going to follow the layout of Empire's reviews because I feel it is simplistic yet effective and in this case less is more as the second review looks too busy and cluttered.
