Where can I get a job writing movie reviews?

I am trying to get some experience for my writing portfolio and would really like to start writing movie reviews. Does anyone know where I can write reviews in which I will be given writing credits for them? Thanks for any help!

1. If you want to eventually get a job as a movie reviewer I would definitely start a blog. Advertise and just try to get people to read it. With that and some sort of college degree in journalism you should be on your way.
2. I would say to start off with your local newspaper, do some freelance work in the area of movie reviews and then work your way to a steady position. Or, if you attend college, try writing for the school paper. If you're still in highschool, then try writing for THAT school paper.
3. There are lots of sites that you can post movie comments or reviews in a blog format but if you want to use this for your portfolio then MatchFlick.com is the best place to do that. You can create a writer account and it logs all of your reviews in a personal database so that you retain credit for your writings forever.
