Upcoming Film in 2014

I am so excited for some of the film releases this year and I know you'll probably see me in some of the queues for midnight showings this year (in costume... sad, I know). So here's a few of the most (in my view) exciting releases of 2014!

1.  Divergent - Release Date: 4 April 2014

Excuse me while I fan girl in the corner... Ahhhhhhh! And compose... right, OK.
Divergent is the film I'm most looking forward to this year. Firstly, the books are amazing, and if your a hunger games fan, I can guarantee that you'll love this. I'm not even kidding, I am obsessed with it.

I'll try not to give any spoilers away. The story is that Beatrice/Tris Prior (Shailene Woodley) is living in a world that is divided into factions and once old enough the teenagers must decide whether they want to stay in their own faction or switch to a different one. Tris makes a surprising decision resulting in her having to endure a highly competitive initiation. 

But Tris has a secret, she is "Divergent", which if found out would sentence her to death. Tris then discovers a plan to destroy the Divergent and Tris, with fellow faction member Four (Theo James), has to find out what makes the Divergent so dangerous before it's too late.

Let's just hope the film is as good as the books *fingers crossed*.

2. X-men: Days of Future Past - Release Date: 22 May 2014

 
  Sci-fi fanatics unite. X-men: Days of Future Past is out this year and I promise I'm not just excited about it because Wolverine aka Hugh Jackman is in it. *Girlish squeal* Well maybe a wee bit.
Anyways, ahem, this instalment in the series, sees the X-men sending Wolverine (Hugh Jackman) to visit the past in order to change history so a catastrophic event can be avoided that endangers both humans and mutants. With the likes of Jennifer Lawrence, Nicholas Hoult, Ian McKellan and Glaswegian actor James McAvoy, I'm sure this movie will be a good one.

3. 22 Jump Street - Release Date: 6 June 2014

Hey, it may not be the best film in the world, but it gives you a good laugh. 21 Jump Street released in 2012 proved to be funnier than I thought it would be, with Jonah Hill and Channing Tatum returning to high school as undercover cops in order to stop the spread of a lethal drug. However, this time Jenko (Channing Tatum) and Schmidt (Jonah Hill) go undercover in a local college. A great combination. To be honest the plot and story are a bit same-same as the first movie but oh well. Hopefully, even though the movie is not an Oscar winning masterpiece, it will still provide a good mindless laugh to cheer you up.

So there you go, a couple of this years upcoming films. Fair enough they may not be the best this year, but nonetheless I'm still looking forward to them. A few other movies out this year are the Fault in our Stars, The Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part 1, The Hobbit: There and Back Again etc. This years movie selection is looking pretty hopeful so far. If you have any movies you're looking forward to this year, then feel free to put them in the comments. :)
