Holy crap Batman! Now, I ain’t really given to shameless self promotion… well, ok, maybe just a little bit… but I have to admit. I’m pretty damn chuffed about this and I want to tell everyone… Average Film Reviews has been nominated in the Best Overall Blog category at the 2011 Total Film Movie Blog […]

feature: top 10 films of 2010

9 Comments

Ahoy-hoy! So 2010 has come to an end and it’s time for us all to look back at what films floated our boats 2010… First thing I have to say is that, I thought 2010 was a pretty good year for film.

feature: TRON: Legacy (2010)

4 Comments

At first glance, a follow up to 1982 sci-fi film, TRON, seems like an odd prospect. It has been a long long time and it’s very much a cult film. What seems odder is that it’s being revived as a mass-market Disney feature… … Or perhaps it’s not that odd at all. The success of […]

feature: Machete (2010)

Shockingly, I haven’t seen Grindhouse. Shocking because it seems like exactly the sort of film I would see. Unfortunately they decided to release Grindhouse in two seperate films, neither of which stayed around in the cinemas here very long so I missed them… I really should rent them some time. Anyway, in case you didn’t […]

feature: Horrorthon 2010 (IFI Dublin)

1 Comment

I have to admit, I’d never actually heard of the Horrorthon before this year. Considering it’s now in it’s 13th year, I really don’t know how that happened. The only explanation I can come up with for my ignorance is that, they don’t seem to promote themselves very much (apparently they don’t have to) and […]

feature: Buried (2010)

No Comment

Buried opens officially in Ireland this Friday (1st Oct) and I absolutely urge you to go and see it. I’ll write a full review during the week when more people have had a chance to see it; this is definitely one that you don’t really want to know about going it. All you really need […]

feature: Interview with Brendan Muldowney (Savage, 2010)

No Comment

It’s two days before Savage is finally going on general release in Ireland and I’m meeting writer/director Brendan Muldowney for half an hour to talk about why he made the film, what he’s trying to say and how he feels about all the interest now about a film that debuted over a year ago. I […]

feature: Devil (2010)

2 Comments

Lot of talk about the upcoming horror film, Devil, at the moment. I have to admit… I really like the idea. A group of random people get trapped in a lift and spooky things happen… is one of them the Devil? Sounds cool. Simple but could be very effective. Course it might not be, but […]

feature: Savage (2010)

9 Comments

On Monday night I had the good fortune to attend an advance screening of Savage courtesy of an Irish Film Board competition (thanks folks!) I’d heard very little about it… but I’d seen a trailer before some random movie I went to in the last couple of weeks and a friend said he’d heard it […]

feature: Scott Pilgrim vs. The World (2010)

No Comment

I have to admit, this isn’t a film I’ve been paying a lot of attention to. Which is ridiculous because I really should be paying attention to it. It’s by Edgar Wright, director and co-writer of one of the best comedy-horror films in a very long time. Love that film. Also it stars Michael Cera, […]
