Answer 2

A review provides an evaluation or critique of a work, such as a book or movie, highlighting its strengths and weaknesses. A summary, on the other hand, gives a brief overview of the main points or plot of the work without offering an opinion or analysis.

Answer 3

Summary is referred after every chapter the important points covered in that particular chapter.

Whereas Review means the contents or a feedback in short about the contents of the book or any given matter.

Answer 4

A plot summary simply gives you the gist of the storyline. If it's a description from the studio or the retailers, it will simply give you the set up. If you're looking on Wikipedia or something, it will include all major plot elements, including spoilers.

A review is someone's opinion of the film (or whatever). It will also generally give you an idea of the plotline, but will also contain a recommendation on whether or not you should see/buy this film, and will often focus on the things that the reviewer finds most interesting/horrible. It may contain a quick plot summary, but a plot summary would not press an opinion like reviews do.

Answer 5

Summary is when you take the whole thing and explain it, only in a shorter way. Review is when you just look back.

Answer 6

A book summary is a mere statement of the main ideas and events of a book, whereas a book review is comprised of more opinion-based, thoughful interpretations of the book.

Answer 7

A review includes the concept of evaluation of the content, whereas a summary is merely a restatement of the key points of the content.

Answer 8

No. A plot is the sequence of events in a story; a summary is a brief description of these events.
