Films to look out for this Summer Part 1

The Avengers
Release Date: 26th April (UK)
The film that is starting of the summer season and in contention for the Summer Blockbuster title. The film brings together Iorn Man (Robert Downey Jr), Captain America (Chris Evans), Thor (Chris Hemmsworth), Black Widow (Scarlett Johanson), Hawkeye (Jeremy Renner) and The Hulk (Mark Ruffalo) to save the world from the bad guys in this case Loki (Tom Hiddleston) who wants to take over the world. Its basically the biggest superhero film ever brought to you by director Joss Whedon.

American Reunion
Release Date: 2nd May
The next in the series of the American Pie films brings the cast back for their 10 year high school reunion. The cast of Jason Biggs, Alyson Hannigan, Chris Klein, Sean William Scott, Tara Reid, Thomas Ian Nicholas, Eddie Thomas and Mena Suvari reunite for a fun packed film.

The Lucky One
Release Date: 2nd May
Adaptation of the Nicholas Sparks novel which everyone knows means that we are going to cry as i have done with every other adaptation of his books including The Notebook, The Last Song and a Walk to Remember. The film stars Zac Effron who returns from war in Iraq in search of the women who saved his life (its complicated cause technically she didn't but he thinks she did). It has EPIC love story written all over it. Also stars Taylor Schilling and Blythe Danner

Don't forget to bring your tissues!!!


Dark Shadows
Release Date: 11th May
Tim Burton and Johnny Depp are back together again, they seem to come as a pair when you make a film. To be honest i don't know much about the film but it looks good and funny from the trailer even with the title.

Prepare to laugh a lot i imagine

Men in Black 3
Release Date: 25th May
Who hasn't been waiting years to see this film???? and now they are back are two favourite secret agents, Will Smith and Tommy Lee Jones are back in black to save the world from aliens well mostly but with time traveling this time and Josh Brolin coming in to play a young Agent K (Tommy Lee Jones). I have high hopes for this film so it better be good, especially since we have waited long enough for it.

Prometheus
Release Date: 1st June
From the director Ridley Scott (Alien) comes the adventure into space that is all about discovering the origins of mankind. From the trailer it doesn't look like a film for the faint hearted i imagine i will be cowering behind a cushion through it wondering what is going to happen next but it does look really good. The film stars Charlize Theron, Idris Elba, Guy Pearce, Noomi Rapace, Micheal Fassbender and Logan Marshall-Green.

LOL
Release Date: 1st June
The film has been described as a "romance in the YouTube age", its kind of a teen drama film set in high school and probably will follow the same pattern as the other films that fit into that genre, the film stars Miley Cyrus, Demi Moore and Ashley Greene and actually looks good if it is your type of film. It will be a film that will take you on a roller coaster of emotions as you follow the status up dating character Lol (Miley Cyrus) as she battles through high school.

Snow White and the Huntsmen
Release Date: 1st June
The second of the Snow White adaptations out this year but this one is taking it a lot darker than the light hearted Mirror Mirror. We all know the basics of the Snow White fairy tale with the wicked witch wanting to kill Snow White so she can rule forever. But this film shows that the film is going to be a lot more action packed. Kristen Stuart is taking the role of Snow White, Charlize Theron taking the role of the Wicked Queen and Chris Hemsworth is "The Huntsmen"

I really hope this is going to be a good film.

Rock of Ages
Release Date: 15th June
This film looks awesome!!! I have seen bits and pieces of the musical online and its finally being made into a film. The story is about two people trying to make there dreams come true in 1987, they fall in love as soon as they meet. Being set in the 80's we are guaranteed some great music cause who doesn't love 80's music. There is a big cast in this film with lots of cameos, the two main characters are played by Julianne Hough and Diego Boneta also Catherine Zeta Jones, Russel Brand, Alec Baldwin, Paul Giamatti and as the rockstar Stacee Jaxx, Tom Cruise!!!

The Amazing Spider Man
Release Date: 4th July
Probably going to be one of the biggest films this summer as the new Spider-man is unveiled. Andrew Garfield takes on the legendary hero with Emma Stone at his side. I can't wait!!!! (more info in previous post)
