Upcoming Pic Roundup - April
Saturday, 1 April 2017
Edit
March's highlight was %100 Kong: Skull Island for me amongst a visual feast of epic fun, buffet-style. (Read my rattling pleased review here!) I also saw Beauty as well as the Beast which was alone simply equally practiced equally it needed to be. (Read my review hither to meet where it went incorrect as well as what it got right.) I soundless desire to meet Life, but a home trip for it is currently upwards inward the air.
Iron Fist was released on Netflix, as well as nosotros watched it slow as well as simply finished it, to a greater extent than than a petty disappointed. But at that topographic point was a dandy superhero exhibit afterwards all -- inward February's Legion. It latterly wrapped upwards every fleck equally good equally it began: appropriately crazy, beautiful, as well as terrifying.
This calendar month I'm feeling a petty cynical towards all the novel releases, amongst no must-sees -- but at the same time, enough of potential. So fourth dimension volition nation if my cynicism is warranted or not! What looks practiced to yous this month, as well as what was your highlight from March? Let me know inward the comments!

It's definitely an master thought that I would remember would bring to potential to hold upwards funny, but it's difficult to nation whether the potential is fulfilled or non -- the trailer itself isn't funny at all, as well as the gimmick may crusade to a greater extent than problems than it does furnish humor. The trailer gives away a lot, but I soundless bring questions near the mechanics of the premise. I don't aid for Anne Hathaway at all, but she's balanced out past times Dan Stevens who I'd sentinel inward anything. Plus, yet much similar a rom-com it appears to be, it's soundless technically a sci-fi too, as well as that helps a lot. Mild involvement here.
Gifted
April 7th; PG-13
This pic is full-on drama which is in all probability the to the lowest degree appealing genre out at that topographic point to me, as well as yet it soundless looks interesting -- as well as non fifty-fifty because it starts Chris Evans. In fact, the matter that actually grabbed my attending when I saw start saw the trailer was Jenny Slate playing a serious, apparently likeable character! I actually desire to meet her create that. The floor is simply near equally interesting equally a drama tin get, but I tin foresee cliches as well as sappiness equally well; it all depends on how it's told.
The Fate of the Furious
April 14th; PG-13
I caught upwards on the Fast as well as the Furious franchise earlier the seventh i came out as well as soundless didn't bother to meet it inward theaters, as well as then that's in all probability a practiced indicator of where I'm at amongst this one, too. I also empathise continuing on without Paul Walker, but a lot of the film's appeal is gone without him at the middle of everything. Otherwise this looks to hold upwards a corporation entry inward a corporation as well as long-running franchise. They're non getting lazy as well as sticking to the same fourmula past times switching Vin Diesel to villain side (not that he's REALLY a villain of course) as well as the stunts are appropriately larger than those inward the concluding movie. I await this volition proceed the fun, popcorn-action serial rolling along.
The Lost City of Z
April 14th; PG-13
I heard near this i because Tom Kingdom of the Netherlands is inward it, as well as was nether the impression for a patch that it was a fantasy pic of to a greater extent than or less kind. Then I establish out it's based on a truthful floor which is a large change. I'm non oft a fan of truthful stories, as well as I'm non a fan of Charlie Hunnam either, who plays the lead. However, for people who are fans or those who don't care, the cinema does human face practiced -- artistically filmed as well as artistically told -- as well as may rattling good hold upwards a worthwhile watch.

Another that has Dan Stevens inward a supporting role. Richard Gere is inward the atomic number 82 as well as apparently branching out from how nosotros know him amongst an indie grapheme piece. The characters seem complex as well as the plot doesn't experience overly familiar, as well as it has that night but quirky indie agency to it... but honestly if I always locomote on to sentinel it it'll in all probability alone hold upwards because of Dan Stevens... as well as in all probability also because it was gratuitous as well as I had cipher to a greater extent than interesting to watch.
Free Fire
April 21st; R
Sharlto Copley, Brie Larson, Armie Hammer, Cillian Murphy, Sam Riley, non-stop R-rated action-comedy. They had me at Sharlto Copley. Definitely the most wacky pic to come upwards out this month, as well as also the sort out of pic that doesn't take away a practiced critic grade to hold upwards enjoyable for those inclined. It's plainly meant to hold upwards ridiculous. It's R-rating is a petty to a greater extent than than I'd prefer to bring to bargain with, but amongst this form as well as the craziness of the trailer, it's gonna proceed nagging me whether I meet it or not.
Language alarm for this trailer! I tried rattling difficult to discovery a dark-green band one, but I remember inward social club for i to be it would bring to bring no dialogue...
The Circle
April 28th; PG-13
Creepy. And this one's based on a majority -- has anyone read it? After beingness disappointed amongst Emma Watson's Belle I'm non stoked at the thought of seeing her again, but mayhap this volition hold upwards a gamble for her to redeem herself. I am eager to meet John Boyega inward something else though, as well as Tom Hanks as well as Karen Gillan are also inward the cast. Being based on a majority gives me a lot to a greater extent than confidence inward the plot's character than I mightiness ordinarily have. So far all signs indicate to this beingness the highlight of the month, though I'll take away to hold upwards convinced a bit to a greater extent than earlier I vanquish out for a ticket. Maybe I should read the book...
