The
Grand
Budapest
Hotel




Grand Budapest would be my first choice to see right now.
Captain America has never held my interest, zero, so that's out.

Here would be the rest, in order of preference;
Noah
Mr. Peabody and Sherman
300; Rise of an Empire

and that's it. nothing else looks that good to spend money on.

Soon there will be every kind of movie in theaters so it'll be hard not to be intrigued by any of them

Locke (low budget, character driven, starring Tom Hardy)

Captain America (summer type blockbuster with an actual story line)

Noah (high budget film deeply rooted in religion with powerful lead performances)

Under the Skin (sci fi with a strong female lead...scarlet jo)

Grand Budapest Hotel (quirky and imaginative comedy)

Draft Day (sports movie with a relevant topic and solid cast)

The raid 2?

The first one was an instant classic

what would you go see

None of them. Sex Tape was not very good and Hercules wouldn't even allow their picture to be reviewed in Dallas which means it's a stinker. The Purge got a D- here. Jump Street got a B, but it's very juvenile from what I could see in the previews.

Go to see Boyhood. Certainly one of the best movies I've seen this year. Gave it an A-.

Hercules has gotten decent to good reviews. I have no idea why they wouldn't preview it, but it's not like the normal 10% Rotten Tomato movies that don't get shown ahead of time.

22 Jump Street is a great, great movie. It's been several years since I was in a theater where people were laughing as much as they did for it.

The best movie out right now is Dawn of the Planet of the Apes. It's an instant classic, and probably the best rated and most fan-appreciated blockbuster since The Dark Knight six years ago. And frankly, I liked it more than The Dark Knight. I can only assume by its absence in the poll that the OP has already seen it. If not, that is the answer.

They reviewed it this morning. Gave it a C+ and said it was a fun movie. Agree with you on Planet of the Apes.

I am glad they are redoing the Planet of the Apes movies!

I loved those as a kid.

They're very different from the originals, which I also liked as a kid.

Just be warned.

Looks like it will be a trilogy when all's said and done. The third film has already been greenlit:

1) Rise of the Planet of the Apes (2011)--First film of the reboot. I watched it a couple of weeks ago, and couldn't believe it was actually good. Made me want to go see the 2nd one, which I did.

2) Dawn of the Planet of the Apes (2014)--Second film of the reboot. Just a great movie, even if you're not into action or sci-fi. People looking for a Michael Bay visual and audio mess of stupidity seem to not care for it.

3) Untitled Third Film (2016)--Really looking forward to it!

Dawn of the Planet of the Apes is the best movie in theaters right now. I watched that today & was thoroughly impressed. I liked Rise of the Planet of the Apes & thought the new movie was much better.

I can hardly wait for the third movie in the trilogy.

Lol man every time you do a poll for which movies to watch the selections are terrible (no offense)

The only movies worth watching right now are Dawn of the Planet of the Apes and A Most Wanted Man


Dawn of the Planet of the Apes is by far the best movie of the year and while I won't go as far as saying it's better than The Dark Knight it's certainly deserving to be mentioned in the same sentence as The Dark Knight

Haven't seen A Most Wanted Man, but it has a great cast, has great ratings (90 %), and it's also Phillip Seymour Hoffman's last movie.


I'd say see those two or wait til next week for Guardians of the Galaxy. That or find a torrent for Expendables 3 (yes it has leaked online already)
