Temáticas, Reporte e Métodos de Revisões Sistemáticas Brasileiras sobre Exergames

In addition to having a notable social impact, cinema is a leisure resource that has aroused the interest of researchers from different areas of knowledge, including authors of systematic reviews (SRs). SR is a widely used method that fits any area of research. However, little is known about the use of this method in cinema studies. With the aid of the AMSTAR 2 tool, I analyze the themes, reporting and methods of Brazilian SRs on cinema. Through an umbrella review (review of SRs) I identified seven SRs that met pre-established eligibility criteria. I analyzed the content of these SRs and identified that they cover themes such as psychiatry, cinema therapy, physical education, resilience, special education and sound. Unfortunately, these SRs have limitations in reporting and methods that hinder their assessment and decrease confidence in their findings. Efforts to improve adherence to good practices in the production and reporting of SRs can favor the cumulative development of knowledge about cinema.
