Just Some Of The Amazing Movies Coming To Theaters In May 2018
Because May and June are the ~summer foreplay~ months, TBH.
Tully (May 4)
From the team behind Juno and Young Adult, we have a tale about modern motherhood. Charlize Theron plays Marlo, a mother of three trying to navigate the duties of being both a mother and a wife in the 21st century. When she is gifted a night nanny, Tully, by her brother, she is reluctant to face what taking time for herself means. Naturally, Tully and Marlo form a bond and learn from each other in ways they likely don't anticipate.

RBG (May 4)
84-year-old Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, who is lovingly known on the internet as "the Notorious RBG," has a groundbreaking legal legacy to her name, though the story behind her journey to the Supreme Court is not widely known. This documentary seeks to shed light on the incredible strides RBG has made for women throughout her career, and how she rose to pop culture stardom on the internet in what is sure to be an incredibly inspiring movie.

Breaking In (May 11)
Mother's day weekend is bringing us some kick-ass mom content this year! This one stars Gabrielle Holy-Heck-Literal-Goals Union as one mother you don't want to mess with. When some bad guys break into her recently deceased father's technologically-advanced home and kidnap her children, she must either pay the ransom or, you know, kick all kinds of butt. By the trailer, I think we can guess which path she takes.

Life of the Party (May 11)
A completely different type of Mother's day movie, we have this Melissa McCarthy-led romp about a mom whose husband leaves her after their daughter goes away for college. Rather than get down on herself, McCarthy's character decides to go back to school and get her degree. This one looks insanely cute AND refreshing, being that her daughter seems supportive of her mother's goals, rather than embarrassed by her (I love my mom, she's fun AF...like, sorry your mom can't party, just sayin').

Terminal (May 11)
So, Margot Robbie's in it. Our story centers on two assassins living in a futuristic universe who are chosen to carry out a sinister mission. And Margot Robbie's in it. Other characters include a "teacher battling a fatal illness," a "enigmatic janitor," and a "curious waitress" who is leading an intricate double-life. Anyway, have I mentioned that Margot Robbie's in it? All of these characters cross paths over the course of one fateful night which, in turn, changes the course of their lives. And also, Margot Robbie's in it.

Dark Crimes (May 18)
In Jim Carrey's first leading role since 2014's Dumb and Dumber To, he plays a tormented, obsessed police officer named Tadek. He makes a break in an unsolved murder case when he realizes that the crimes committed all align with the writings of a popular crime author named Krystov Kozlow. But, as Tadek continues to track the motions of Kozlow, he slowly realizes that he may be discovering far more than he ever bargained for. I absolutely LOVE Carrey in dramatic roles, and I'm here ALL DAY for an acting come back. (And, if you want to catch this one early, it is also available exclusively on DIRECTV starting April 19!)

Deadpool 2 (May 18)
So, in case you're new here, nothing else truly matters to me this year except Zazie Beetz as Domino in Deadpool 2. Yeah, yeah Deadpool. Yeah, yeah badass action and crazy hilarious dialogue. But mostly ZAZIE. BEETZ. AS. DOMINO. IN. DEADPOOL 2.

How to Talk to Girls at Parties (May 18)
If you're a lover of weird indie films, then you're probably familiar with the work of John Cameron Mitchell (Hedwig and the Angry Inch, Rabbit Hole). This film, based on a short story by Neil Gaiman, follows Enn, a shy teenage boy caught in the middle of the punk revolution of 1977. One fateful night while partying, Enn and his friends stumble on some cool teens who seem like they're ~from another planet~ (Hint: They are). And, as if that isn't a good enough sale of this movie, Nicole Kidman's in it and has INSANE hair.

Book Club (May 18)
THIS. LOOKS. FUN. Whether you love or hate the Fifty Shades franchise, there's no denying that it changed the conversation around sex in pop culture, and particularly the stigma around middle-aged women and their interest in having active and enjoyable sex lives. Basically, this light-hearted romantic comedy seeks to explore the way in which the ~salacious~ book changes the love lives of four women. And the cast for this is LEGITIMATELY GREAT. This definitely looks like a sneak-wine-into-the-theater-with-your-girlfriends type movie (don't worry, I won't snitch on you).

Solo (May 25)
Look, I'm a simple woman. I love Star Wars. Harrison Ford as Han Solo was my first crush on a man (what? Leia shows up on-screen first, just saying) ever. Finally having a film detailing Han's early years is something I never thought I'd be gifted with, so I'm just happy it exists. You naysayers and nitpickers can do as you please, but I'll be in theaters on May 25th having a hell of a time. Sure, you may have your doubts, but NEVER TELL ME THE ODDS.
