14 movies coming out soon that look great
Although 2016 was arguably a letdown at the movies, 2017 is already shaping up to be a major improvement. Spring has only just begun, and some movies have already debuted in theaters that are pretty much guaranteed to go down as some of our favorites. It's a phenomenally promising start, and it certainly bodes well for the movies that have yet to premiere this year.
We sincerely hope that your calendars are relatively free for the next few months because there are some genuinely enthralling films on the horizon. On that note, we have compiled a list of the 14 upcoming films that you should definitely keep an eye on going into the summer.
There are plenty of great movies to get to, so let's kick this off with Anne Hathaway's latest film: "Colossal."
"Colossal" — April 7
Sundance InstituteKaiju movies have a long and storied history in Hollywood, but "Colossal" looks like a fascinating twist on the formula. Centering on a young woman (Anne Hathaway) whose life is in shambles, the film follows her as she discovers that she finds that she is in complete control of a giant monster rampaging through Japanese cities. Early buzz on "Colossal" is almost universally positive, so all eyes are on this black comedy to take the monster movie genre in a very new direction.
"The Void" — April 7
D FilmsThe horror renaissance has been an absolute treat to watch unfold over the last few years, and it appears to be in full swing with the upcoming release of "The Void." A love letter to the 1980s (in the vein of "Stranger Things"), "The Void" centers on a group of people in a hospital surrounded by members of a violent cult as monsters begin to run wild. Expect practical effects and all of the blood and terror that you can take.
"The Fate of the Furious" — April 14
UniversalThe "Fast & Furious" franchise continues to get faster and more furious, and it will once again come to a head when "The Fate of the Furious" hits theaters on April 14. Positioning Vin Diesel's Dom Toretto as the "villain" of the story, the eighth installment in the series has shifted its focus to give Dwayne Johnson's Hobbs and Jason Statham's Deckard Shaw the spotlight. Expect muscles, muscle cars, and an insane number of explosions when this one debuts.
