Movie & Book Reviews

Hello,

I'm new on the site so my apologies if this post already exists, I ran a search with no luck.

I'd like to write movie and book reviews for CC. I am aware that plagiarism (obviously) isn't acceptable.
I am wondering how that affects use of 'official' movie and book press release/synopsis wording.
I'm aware many reviews use this, and it seems pretty hard to write a review without using some official release wording.
But I do not wish to break any CC rules!

Thank you!

I suspect it would get thrown back of you use the official release wording. I have written some reviews without having to copy anything verbatim. Just paraphrase would be my advice.
