try this
<?php
$paged = (get_query_var('page')) ? get_query_var('page') : 1;
$my_query = new WP_Query('category_name=reviews&showposts=30&paged=$paged'); ?>
<?php while ($my_query->have_posts()) : $my_query->the_post();
?>

Hi,
-Please check the category name if it correct,
-For the custom query, use double quote if you need to pass $paged value..
from
$my_query = new WP_Query('category_name=reviews&showposts=30&paged=$paged'); ?>
to
$my_query = new WP_Query("category_name=reviews&showposts=30&paged=$paged"); ?>
or concatenate it
$my_query = new WP_Query('category_name=reviews&showposts=30&paged='.$paged); ?>
-you can use posts_per_page instead of showposts..
$my_query = new WP_Query("category_name=reviews&posts_per_page=30&paged=$paged"); ?>
-check if $my_query->max_num_pages return a value that > 1, and check if your category has more than 30 posts
