Abstract: A system and method for reviewing and checking cinema movies for completeness and conformity with exhibitor expectations in a time-saving and efficient manner. In one embodiment, a method for evaluating presentations is provided wherein for each presentation length, a reel time duration X is determined, points of interest are determined, and presentation length portions to be evaluated are selected as preferably including at least a duration of time which includes each of the determined points of interest. The selected portions may include a buffer portion, e.g., a period of time from about 5% of the total presentation length time before to about 5% of the total presentation length time after each of the determined points of interest. Another portion may be presentation length selected for evaluation which includes at least 10% of the total presentation length time. Such 10% selected portion is preferably selected from the center of each presentation length.
