The best month of last year has to go to October.  Four of my favorite films came out that month.  It was a lot of fun.

Alright, lets get this started!
(W.R.)-mean Wide Release

January 2nd:
The Woman in Black 2: Angels of Death, and [REC] 4: Apocalypse

January 9th:
Taken 3, Selma (W.R.), Inherent Vise (W.R.), Preservation, and Predestination

Excitement: 1.5
Reason:  I never seen the second one of these movies.  This one looks like it should be called The Fugitive 2

Excitement: 2.5
Reason:  Well from the first trailer, I didn't like the look of this film.  Slowly overtime it has grown on me.  I'm looking forward to seeing Tim Roth, that guys is always so good in everything.

Excitement: 3
Reason:  So, I'm still on media black out for this movie.  I will be going in blind to see this.  

January 16th:
The Wedding Ringer, Paddington, Blackhat, American Sniper (W.R.), Still Alice (W.R.), Son of a Gun, and Spare Parts
Excitement: 2
Reason:  Mr. January, Kevin Hart, is back with a new comedy.  Josh Gad plays a guy who is getting married and has no friends.  So he hires Kevin Hart to be his best man.

Excitement: 2
Reason:  This movie was pushed back from Christmas to now.  I remember reading these books as a kid.  So who knows how this will turn out.

Excitement: 2.5
Reason: Bradley Cooper has totally transformed into this role.  Looks like it could be intense.  




January 23rd:
Strange Magic, The Boy Next Door, Mortdecai, Black Sea, Black or White, Red Army, and Against the Sun
Excitement: 3
Reason:  I really enjoy movies that play with the things in the news.  This movie is about a teacher who decides to sleep with the next door neighbor.  After she comes to her senses he stalks her and looks like it could be a good suspense movie as well.


January 30th:
The Loft, Project Almanac, Alien: Outpost, Coming Home

Excitement: 3
Reason: Karl Urban and James Marsden start in a suspense thriller.  A group of guys share a loft and when they return to it they find a dead women inside.  But who did it and why???

1. Inherent Vice
2. Selma
