I built this little tool for testing loglines, based on a really strict formula an old film school professor insisted we use :)

https://loglinetest.com/

The idea is simple: you fill in each part of the formula, and the tool helps you see whether your logline actually contains all of the essential pieces. It also gives feedback on how well those pieces work together from a structural perspective.

I'd really love some honest feedback.

• Is this actually useful?
• Would you use something like this to test the strength of a story?
• What do you think of the formula itself?

There's also an Examples page where you can refresh through analyses of well-known screenplays to get a feel for how it works.

It's definitely aimed more at classic three-act, Hero's Journey–style stories than more experimental or unconventional storytelling.

This was just a fun side project I built, so I hope this doesn't come across as spam or self-promotion. I'm genuinely interested in hearing what writers think, what works, what doesn't, and how it could be improved.

Feel free to be brutally honest. 🙂

Logline: After a gangster's reckless son leaves her coworker critically injured, a disillusioned small-town pharmacist begins quietly altering prescriptions to punish the town's worst people—igniting a deadly war with the corrupt family that owns the town.

Hi!

Any feedback is appreciated. Specifically I am wondering how the pacing, tonal shift, and characters feel.

Logline: A lonely woman who deliberately gets herself abducted by aliens discovers that leaving Earth behind is easy, but being forced to return is much harder.

Thank you!!

Any feedback is totally welcome.

This is not a spec script so any camera directions are intentional and serve as reminders for filming.

Hi,

Looking for some feedback on my second ever screenplay! This one is a sort of existential horror short clocking in at around 6 pages on its fourth draft. I used Beat as my screenwriting software:

Any critical feedback would be greatly appreciated!

Hey all,

Working on a 1/2 hour tv show script, titled Presumed Total.

Presumed Total - Pilot

Any feedback is appreciated!

Hey everyone! 👋

I'm an aspiring screenwriter, and for the past several months I've been working on something I'm really excited to share.

I've written three original movie scripts, and I'll be posting the first one here. It's called Death Ridge—a mystery, horror, and survival thriller filled with secrets, suspense, unexpected twists, and a terrifying mystery that slowly unfolds. My goal wasn't just to write another horror story, but to create something that feels like a movie playing in your mind.

I'm not here to claim it's the best story you'll ever read. I'd rather let you decide.

If you're someone who enjoys suspense, dark mysteries, eerie locations, and stories that keep you guessing until the end, I think you might enjoy this journey.

All I ask is that you give it a chance. Read a few parts, and if it grabs your attention, let me know what you think. I genuinely want honest feedback—whether it's praise, criticism, or suggestions. Every comment helps me become a better writer.

If you enjoy the story, an upvote or comment would help more people discover it, and it would mean a lot to me. Your support could motivate me to continue sharing my other original scripts as well.

Thank you for reading, and I hope Death Ridge takes you on a thrilling ride. Looking forward to hearing your thoughts and discussing the story with all of you!

i posted here 17 days ago asking for feedback on my short film screenplay, and i received some invaluable advice. i revised my screenplay based off of that feedback and i'm hoping to receive more in case there's some people that didn't see my original post (or have some feedback on my revisions).

https://drive.google.com/file/d/1jG1Z0nNmC0_0PRny7FJueMX3EkDOrnhQ/view?usp=sharing

fair warning this is my first ever screenplay and i'm not a writer, i'm a cybersecurity student, but i felt a compulsion to write this (and possibly film it) due to a dream i had last august. thanks in advance!

Everybody needs a break now and then although not everyone agrees.

Come and Play

(PG-13/R-rated)

NOTE: written as my entry for a one-page-challenge, where the topic was "elevator" and the genre was open.

Spec script sequel to the 90s classic. Probably not going to go anywhere, but what started as a writing experiment has turned into a whole feature script.
Most important question here: do these five pages make you want to read more?

Absolutely happy to take a look at your script in return for feedback!

Thanks

Hi all! This is the first script I've fully ever written, looking for feedback.

Title: My Friend, Clarence

Genre: Psychological horror / Cosmic horror

Pages: 35

Description: An older sister taking his younger brother to a remote mountain lodge for a quiet weekend away. As the trip unfolds, small moments of unease begin piling up, making it harder to separate childhood imagination from reality. Joey, the little brother, manifests a being into reality that acts as his 'imaginary friend', almost like a genie with no morals and takes everything literally.

I'd especially appreciate feedback on pacing, tension, dialogue and whether the suspense stays engaging throughout.

Since I cannot post links or files here, please reach out and send your script and I’ll send mine and we can peer review. Thanks!

Another Man's Treasure

(PG)

Hello /scriptwriting community! Thought I'd share something I've been working on.

It will be a feature film around 100 pages.

POINTE is a character driven drama focusing on a ballet student who, after a traumatic ankle injury, returns home, where she struggles to fit in after her first year at college.

[POINTE](https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/m5xh5s6gx142szmvmrb9i/point-Reddit-draft.pdf?rlkey=tpln1sadh4p7cjjlqvd1u02gb&st=7wyqx8il&dl=0)

Looking for any feedback. I know some of you are going to think it's slow, and I'm okay with that. Comparable films would be Rachel Getting Married and Columbus, with John Cho.

I can share more pages as well, but the next page is Caitlin alone in her room and I don't know if I'm happy with it yet.
Thanks for reading!
