It's the most wonderful time of the year! Not only does Summer allow us to unleash our chiseled bodies as canvases for the Sun's ultraviolet rays, but it's when movie studios release potential blockbusters that they hope will be the talk of the water cooler for the rest of the year.
Blasting off with the anticipated return of a magnetic superhero (Iron Man 2), a sequel-filled summer rolls on with familiar faces in Shrek Forever After, Toy Story 3, and The Twilight Saga: Eclipse to name a few. Not to be outdone, there are plenty of reboots and adaptations that give us a fresh look at classic heroes with Ridley Scott's Robin Hood, a whole new cast for The A-Team, and Jaden Smith in Karate Kid. And of course, for your Summer flings, we have plenty of date movies in Killers, Knight & Day, Letters to Juliet, and for the action loving couple, The Expendables (a stretch? Maybe).
So before you oil up for your mornings at the beach and aloe down for your nights at your local cineplex, put on your floaties and cannonball into our Summer Movie Preview!
