Usage notes
- Use rassegna for curated overviews: press, film, or literature. For a broad statistical overview, panoramica or indagine may fit better.
- In media, rassegna stampa is very common. Don't translate English review automatically as rassegna; for an opinion piece, recensione is usually better.
- In military contexts, passare in rassegna means inspect troops or equipment. It is more formal than controllare.
