Spring Movie Preview 2013

As always, the Spring lineup of movies is a mixed bag of tricks. Usually there’s at least a few gems, but Hollywood typically likes to put its forgettable movies between Oscar season and the Summer season. Here’s a list of what movies I’m looking forward to this Spring.

10: Side Effects

Soderbergh seems to make nothing but high quality movies. But it’s been a while since one of his trailer have enticed me enough to really get excited. Probably not since The Informant!

9: A Glimpse Inside the Mind of Charles Swan III

I’m excited to see what Roman Coppola has up his sleeve without Wes Anderson. Also, this movie just looks insane.

8: The Incredible Burt Wonderstone

Ummmm, yes.

7: A Good Day to Die Hard

As much as I hate to see more Die Hard movies being made, I always like to see John McClane on the big screen.

6: Oblivion

I’m mostly excited to see this because of Claudio Miranda’s cinematography, but the story looks intriguing enough that I’ll see this down the road.

5: Stoker

This looks creepy as hell and with Chan-wook Park at the helm this is promising.

4: Trance

If you know me you probably know that I’m not Danny Boyle’s biggest fan. I can respect his work though, and Trance does intrigue me.

3: 42

I’m a big fan of Jackie Robinson’s story and this film looks like it (ha) knocks it out of the park. This is a fantastic trailer.

2: The Place Beyond the Pines

This being Derek Cianfrance’s first feature since Blue Valentine has me amped. Excited to see some more of his work.

1: To The Wonder

It’s no surprise that Malick’s new film has the most beautiful trailer. After The Tree of Life blew me away, I’ve been waiting impatiently for this film.
