3. Stand Up Guys
While the chance to see Al Pacino, Christopher Walken, and Alan Arkin together on-screen in a gangster "up all night" comedy is worth the price of admission, Stand Up Guys also features a smartly-written story about bad men looking to go out on top.

1. Warm Bodies
The most entertaining version of Romeo & Juliet you're likely to see, Warm Bodies is a zombie romance sweet enough to melt the coldest heart. The script is funny and clever enough to freshen up two genres that sorely need it, while Nicholas Hoult and Teresa Palmer make for a gorgeous pair, even though one is a rotting corpse.
