2014 will no doubt be filled with surprises but at this early stage, these are the films that I've heard of and am most looking forward to. Begin the countdown:
25. Noah
Biggest draw for me is Darren Aronofsky but to be honest, this looks a million miles away from Requiem for a Dream and probably a million miles away from the bible story it is based on. Should be big though.

24. Need
for Speed
Reason to see is quite simply post-Breaking Bad Aaron Paul. Also the car action looks like it might be more fast and furious than a certain other franchise.

23. Human Centipede 3
I could give you a hundred reasons not to see this and I'm personally not looking forward to the experience but I bet this one gets people talking when it arrives with its 500 person centipede.
22. Her
Joaquin Phoenix and Spike Jonze together at last?
21. Maggie
Arnie is a father who must over see his daughter's slow transformation into a zombie along with his wife Joely Richardson.

20. The
Hobbit: There and Back Again
Excited for it all to finally come to end to be honest. It's been a long and drawn out wait.

19. RoboCop
Early trailers have received mixed opinions but the politics of this prescient remake might just pull it through.

15. The
Green Inferno
Not a massive fan of Eli Roth but hoping this one is as extreme as Cannibal Holocaust without any of the actual animal cruelty that went into that abomination!

Alejandro González Iñárritu finally cheers up a bit. Great cast and premise too.

9. The
Maze Runner
Will Poulter stars in this YA adaptation that sounds to me a hell of a lot more promising than Divergent.

A great little cast stuck in a WW2 tank and directed by the guy who gave us End of Watch.
