First of all, I think it is a good idea to put the movie titles in quotes as this improves readability.

Your short summary is missing a verb, so it is not a complete sentence.

Take a closer look at the long summary: Right at the start, you wrote "an [...] movies". Furthermore, a verb is missing here. Finally, be very cautious when to use exclamation marks. I do not think it belongs here.

The rest seems to be okay.

Gaya87, I'm pretty sure that we have previously asked you to write the long summary first and then the short version. It makes far more sense that way.

I'm very sorry. I forgot about it. Moving forward, I will write the long summary first and then the short one.
