Okay. I added a line at the end crediting the studio. For what it's worth, I went and looked at movie reviews from many different movie critics and there is no "crediting" images as they are obviously from the movie. If I was using name, image, likeness to promote myself or something else, then I would need to credit the movie. But since this is an actual movie review, not for profit, I don't see the need. In fact, the critics reviewing these movies actually get paid to do it. I don't.

This is actually free advertising for the studio. I've paid my money to see this movie, whether it was at the theater, renting it online, or simply paying my cable bill. The studio wants people to review this and spread the word. This is only for their benefit.

Like I said, I added the line for the studio, but anyone trying to sue someone for a review of a movie they paid to watch would be laughed out of court.
