Well, well, well… what have we got here? It’s been a couple of years but J.J. Abrams has finally come out with a new film. Super 8 is actually only his 3rd film but with Steven Spielberg all over the promotional materials, you can rest assured this is a biggie. Ok, to be fair, they’ve […]
moreBack in 2008 the world was introduced to a cute little panda called Po. Well maybe he wasn’t all that little… and he wasn’t like fantastically cute. But he was cuddly and people all over the world fell in love with him and all his antics in Kung Fu Panda. Except me, I didn’t love […]
moreI haven’t given you much of build up on this one but I saw it last night and I decided I really wanted to promote it. Without further ado, Hanna. Hanna is the second collaboration between Joe Wright and Saoirse Ronan, the first one being the excellent war-time drama Atonement. Great film, seek it out […]
moreGoodness! Priest is nearly upon us and I’ve only done one post on it… and that was months ago! Anyway yes, as I said in that post – alternate future? post-apocalyptic dystopia? I’m there. It’s my favourite genre of fiction. I don’t care if there’s vampires, cannibals, zombies or just a simple breakdown of civilisation. […]
moreProudly on the poster, Attack The Block proclaims “From the producers of Shaun of the Dead“. Now, I love Shaun of the Dead, that’s why I’m choosing to ignore that line… I don’t want to burden this innocent first time feature director with those kind of expectations. Let’s let him stand on his own two […]
moreI’m a big fan of the X-Men. Well, more accurately, I’m a big fan of the X-Men films and that brilliant cartoon they had in the ’90s – here’s a flashback for y’all. Oh how I loved that cartoon… I had the theme as a ringtone for a while. It was so good… Anyway, I’m […]
moreWhen I was a kid I used to read about Norse Gods a lot. I dunno, they were much more interesting than the ol’ bible stories. I mean there was that one guy whose children were a serpent, a wolf and a creepy daughter who ruled over Hel. He was always my favourite. Not that […]
moreAnd so it ends. Finally we are at Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2 It’s been a long journey. I think a lot of people won’t realise this, but the first novel Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone was first published on 30th June 1997, 14 years ago. I kind think it’s a […]
moreHere at Average Film Reviews, we’re big fans of Dwayne Johnson. I mean I saw Tooth Fairy. TOOTH FAIRY. And I didn’t even hate it… Because The Rock was in it. I’m not sure if we’re allowed call him The Rock any more but oh well.*
moreI kinda get the impression that Zack Snyder’s one of those directors that some critics love to hate. He’s divisive. I had a look over on Metacritic and all his films got scores in the 50s from the critics… Yet they all got over 7 in the user ratings. The people like him. I like […]
