× I often go to the cinema to relax when I have free time because watching a new film helps me and I usually choose action or comedy movie and sometimes I go with friends so we can discuss the plot afterward.
✓ I often go to the cinema to relax when I have free time because watching a new film helps me; I usually choose action or comedy movies, and sometimes I go with friends so we can discuss the plot afterward.
Run-on sentence and missing plural. The original sentence joins several ideas without proper punctuation or conjunctions and uses 'movie' instead of plural 'movies' after 'action or comedy'. Split clauses with a semicolon or separate sentences, add a comma before 'and', and use the plural form 'movies' to agree with 'action or comedy' as types of films.
× I usually relax with friends because we can chat about anything and do activity together like watching movies or going for a walk.
✓ I usually relax with friends because we can chat about anything and do activities together, like watching movies or going for a walk.
Countable noun 'activity' needs plural 'activities' when speaking generally about more than one kind of thing. Add a comma before 'like' for clarity.
× We often order food to share which make the evening more fun and help me unwind.
✓ We often order food to share, which makes the evening more fun and helps me unwind.
Relative clause subject 'which' refers to 'ordering food to share' (singular idea), so the verb should be 'makes' not 'make'. Also maintain parallel verb 'helps' to agree with singular subject 'which'.
× Yes I do I like listening to music because it helped me relax and unwind after a long day sometimes I sing alone and other times I then when I listen to upbeat song for example when I'm stressed I put on crime instrumental music which calm my.
✓ Yes, I do. I like listening to music because it helps me relax and unwind after a long day. Sometimes I sing alone, and other times when I listen to an upbeat song — for example, when I'm stressed — I put on calm instrumental music which soothes me.
Mixed tenses and missing articles/features. 'Helped' should be present 'helps' to match habitual present. 'Upbeat song' needs an article 'an' and 'crime instrumental' appears to be a typo; likely 'calm instrumental'. 'Which calm my' is ungrammatical: use 'which soothes me' or 'that calms me'. Add punctuation to separate sentences and clarify meaning.
× I usually wash lighthearted movie to relax because they help me forget about stress.
✓ I usually watch lighthearted movies to relax because they help me forget about stress.
Wrong verb 'wash' should be 'watch'; 'movie' should be plural 'movies' to match general statement and pronoun 'they'. This is a vocabulary/word choice and sentence agreement issue covered under sentence structure errors.
× I also sometimes listen to music, podcasts or shooting playlist when I need to unread after a long day.
✓ I also sometimes listen to music, podcasts, or my 'chill' playlist when I need to unwind after a long day.
'Shooting playlist' and 'unread' are incorrect word choices. Probably intended 'chill playlist' (or another adjective) and 'unwind' (verb) rather than 'unread'. Use correct noun phrase 'playlist' possibly with a possessive 'my' for natural phrasing.
