Celebrating the first six months of 2018’s movies, the Half-Year Awards are here

Rory Cashin

Best Scare, Most Surprisingly Good and Having The Worst Year So Far are just some of the awards up for grabs.

In the latest episode of The Big Reviewski, the film team put their minds together and celebrated the first half of 2018.

Looking at the best and worst that the first six months had to offer, they’ve come up with ten unique categories that should cover every aspect of cinema for movie-lovers.

There was a chance that all three might pick the same thing (which happens for one of them), or three completely different answers (which happens more than once), but if you want to know the reasons for our choices, just click play on the latest episode of The Big Reviewski.

Now, on with the awards!
