The Best Movies of 2014


The Best Movies of 2014

 

Below is my list of the best movies that I have seen that were released in 2014 (even if some were made in 2013).  I have included trailers for each movie.  I would love to eventually write a review of each of these films and talk about why I enjoyed them so much.  But for now, just know that I highly recommend all of these movies.  I will continue to add to this list if I see any more movies from 2014 that are worthy of this list.

3 Days to Kill (2014)

 

Kevin Costner has not been the lead in a solid movie since Mr. Brooks (2007).  He has been doing one thing each year ever since.  But for 2014, Costner has 5 films either waiting to be released or in the works.  3 Days to Kill appears to be the most promising of the 5 films and could likely be his comeback movie.

The film is about a Secret Service agent (Kevin Costner) who is dying.  He has been trying to spend more time with his daughter and wife, but he is offered an experimental drug that just might save his life.  In exchange for the drug, he has 3 days to complete one last job.

The movie was written by Luc Besson and Adi Hasak and directed by McG.  The rest of the noteworthy cast includes Amber Heard, Connie Nielsen, Hailee Steinfeld, Scott Burn, Richard Sammel, and Eriq Ebouaney.

The film appears like it might have some similarities to Taken (2008).  Costner’s character is trying to spend time with his family while at the same time on a mission and cracking skulls.

The movie is set to release on 02/21/14.
