An important task in the study of Natural Language Processing (NLP) is the analysis of movie reviews. It finishes the task of classifying movie review texts into sentiment, such as positive, negative or neutral sentiment. Previous works mainly follow the pipeline of LSTM (Long Short-Term Memory Network). The network model is a variant of Recurrent Neural Network (RNN) and particularly suitable for processing natural language texts. Though existing LSTM-based works have improved the performance significantly, we argue that most of them deal with the problem of analyzing the sentiment of movie reviews while ignore analyze the model performance in different application scenarios, such as different lengths of the reviews and the frequency of sentiment adverbs in the reviews. To alleviate the above issue, in this paper, we constructed a simple LSTM model containing an embedding layer, a batch normalization layer, a dropout layer, a one-dimensional convolutional layer, a maximal pooling layer, a bi-directional LSTM layer and a fully connected layer. We used the existing IMDB movie review dataset to train the model, and selected two research scenarios of movie review length and frequency of occurrence of sentiment adverbs to test the model, respectively. From the experimental results, we proposed a model for the scenarios in which the LSTM model handles the problem of sentiment analysis with respect to the dataset construction, model stability and generalization ability, text fragment processing, data preprocessing and feature extraction, model optimization and improvement.
