In this task, you are given sentences from movie reviews. The task is to classify a sentence as "POS" if the sentiment of the sentence is positive or as "NEG" if the sentiment of the sentence is negative

In addition to the overcooked , ham-fisted direction , which has all the actors reaching for the back row , the dialogue sounds like horrible poetry .
NEG

Sillier , cuter , and shorter than the first ( as best I remember ) , but still a very good time at the cinema .
POS

I hope the movie is widely seen and debated with appropriate ferocity and thoughtfulness .

POS
