With one month down, we’re on to February and with Valentine’s Day this month, naturally there’s at least one rom-com awaiting us! First up is Rebel Wilson in Isn’t It Romantic, where she finds herself trapped in a romantic comedy and that’s essentially her worst nightmare. This month also sees Taraji P. Henson star in a gender-swapped take on the Mel Gibson comedy What Women Want.
If comedies and romance aren’t your thing, never fear because there’s plenty of action and scares to satiate your movie needs. Jane The Virgin star Gina Rodriguez stars in Miss Bala where she’s drawn into a world of cross-border crime, while Netflix’s Velvet Buzzsaw will leave your head spinning.
Still not your thing? Well perhaps you’ll enjoy seeing The Lego Movie 2: The Second Part or How To Train Your Dragon: The Hidden World as these are both out this month!
Read on to discover some new movies you can watch this February!
