1. Tammy

3. Guardians of the Galaxy

Opens: August 1, 2014

Rated: PG

Genre: Action/Adventure

This is probably the most anticipated superhero film of this year, for Marvel’s film looks boldly visionary and incredibly unique. This movie is set deep in space, where every character is just as untrustworthy as Hans Solo. The film follows Peter Quill, an adventurer who stole a mysterious orb and is now running for his life from the orb’s owner, Ronan. From the looks of the trailer, this movie puts all other upcoming superhero films to shame.

4. Lucy

Opens: July 25, 2014

Rated: R

Genre: Action/Adventure

One of Europe’s premier genre filmmakers, Luc Besson brings Lucy, a film following a futuristic drug world where Scarlett Johansson, a drug mule, accidentally ingests some of the drugs, which turn her into a superhuman killing machine. Caught up in the dark world, she turns the tables on her captors by acting on her warrior impulses. Most of the details have been kept under wraps, however, due to Besson’s credits, this film could top the charts.
