So why shouldn't this animated take on turtle bros Raphael, Leonardo, Donatello and Michelangelo defy expectations, especially since Seth Rogen is in on the script and actual teen actors did the voices? I'm stoked.
Now, it's the biggest box office smash of the year. Movie" would be way past its sell-by date when it opened in April. "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem"Ĭynics thought "The Super Mario Bros. This sequel to the 2018 hit is here just because no movie summer would be complete without a shark movie, especially one that pits Jason Statham against a giant, prehistoric version of Jaws. Here's my list of the 25 movies you should be dying to see this summer. There's plenty to excite audiences of all ages and tastes. A24, the indie distributor that recently took home a best picture Oscar and three acting prizes for "Everything Everywhere All at Once," is back with "Past Lives," the dazzling debut feature from Celine Song that reinvents the love story and is head and shoulders above any movie I've seen this year. And never discount Wes Anderson, whose "Asteroid City" is packed with stars such as Tom Hanks and Scarlett Johansson.Īnd look for "Lady Bird" directing nominee Greta Gerwig to add a subversive comic edge to "Barbie," with Margot Robbie bringing the iconic Mattel doll to life and Ryan Gosling - already getting best actor buzz - as a Ken doll you never saw coming.Īnd never rule out the small stuff. Robert Oppenheimer (Cillian Murphy), the father of the atomic bomb. Of course, there's also Chris Pratt as a guardian of the galaxy, Vin Diesel going fast and furious in his muscle car, Gal Gadot trading in her Wonder Woman costume to do wonders as a super CIA agent, and freshly minted Oscar winner Michelle Yeoh as a warrior who transforms into a peregrine falcon.īut my betting money is on Harrison Ford, who, at 80, is taking his fifth and final run at cracking the whip as Indiana Jones.įor awards buffs, there's "Oppenheimer," a big-screen biopic from hitmaker Christopher Nolan on J.
Last year at this time, Tom Cruise almost single-handedly saved in-person filmgoing with "Top Gun: Maverick," a flyboy sequel that not only grossed a zowie $1.4 billion but flew off with six Oscar nominations, including - wait for it - best picture.Ĭan any summer 2023 epic top that phenomenal first sequel to 1986's "Top Gun?" Maybe Cruise can step up again with "Mission Impossible: Dead Reckoning, Part One," though the MI franchise will already be seven movies old. Not since the pandemic hit pause on the box office has a movie summer been so full of potential blockbusters.
