We are now officially in the summer movie season! There are a lot of popular and anticipated movies coming out this summer, below I\u2019m going to list the must-see movies of the summer. You can see all of these movies at AMC Boston Common 19 (I recommend getting an AMC Stubs Insider account, it\u2019s free and you\u2019ll have waived online ticket fees for $4+ tickets, be allowed to participate in discount Tuesdays, free large popcorn refills, and exclusive offers).<\/span><\/p>\n

Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse<\/span><\/i> is known to be revolutionary in the way animation is done nowadays. It caused a shift from making animation look as realistic as possible, to a more stylized look, and its impact is already noticeable with movies like <\/span>Puss in Boots: The Last Wish.<\/span><\/i> In this movie, Miles is able to meet other Spider-people, but when a new threat hits, they all can\u2019t agree on how to handle it. Miles needs to figure out what it means to be a hero and to protect the ones he loves.\u00a0 The movie is in theaters now and has received many positive reviews. It\u2019s being praised for its continuing theme of isolationism and learning how to deal with it.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

Harrison Ford, now 80 years old, is making a comeback as Indiana Jones this summer. The film is also set to have Phoebe Waller-Bridge (<\/span>Fleabag<\/span><\/i>) play Jones\u2019 goddaughter, Helena Shaw. Jones and Shaw go on an adventure to get a dial that can change history.\u00a0 The film premiered at the 76th Cannes Festival, and had mixed reviews. Many praised Ford for his performance, but also feel that the franchise has run its course. The film is set to premiere in theaters on June 30.<\/span><\/p>\n

Barbie<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

If you have also seen the marketing for Barbie, you are probably as excited for it as I am. Starring Margot Robbie as Barbie and Ryan Gosling as Ken, Barbie and Ken leave the perfect world of Barbie Land to enjoy the joys of living among humans. The cast overall is star-studded, with people playing either different Barbies or Kens (except Michael Cera, who is just Allen). The movie is directed by Greta Gerwig, who is known for also directing <\/span>Lady Bird<\/span><\/i> and <\/span>Little Women<\/span><\/i>. The movie is set to premiere in theaters July 21.<\/span><\/p>\n

Oppenheimer<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

Directed by Christopher Nolan, this film is about the role Physicist J Robert Oppenheimer (played by Cilliam Murphy) had in the Manhattan Project in developing the atomic bomb. This film is also filled with many well known actors, such as Emily Blunt, Florence Pugh, and Matt Damon, just to name a few. Many people are in awe over the lack of CGI and how many of the bombs going off are real. This film has the same premiere date as <\/span>Barbie<\/span><\/i>, July 21, so you\u2019ll need to decide which film you want to see first. <\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
