The summer movie season is loved by some who can't get enough of the big budget blockbusters and the CGI driven film, on the other hand it's equally hated by others who hate the dependence these movies have on special effects.
So FemaleFirst takes a look at some of the movies that you should be watching this summer, and no it's not all about the blockbuster.
It's been six years since Terminator: Rise of the Machines hit our screen but the hit franchise is back, albeit without Schwarzenegger.
It seems Christian Bale has got the blockbuster bug, after the success of The Dark Knight last summer, as he takes on the role of John Connor.
Set in post-apocalyptic 2018 and John Connor is the man fated to lead the human resistance against Skynet and its army of Terminators.
But the future that Connor was raised to believe in is altered in part by the appearance of Marcus Wright, a stranger whose last memory is of being on death row. Connor must decide whether Marcus has been sent from the future, or rescued from the past.
As Skynet prepares its final onslaught, Connor and Marcus both embark on an odyssey that takes them into the heart of Skynet's operations, where they uncover the terrible secret behind the possible annihilation of mankind.
And despite the film having not even been released yet there are already of a sequel in the pipeline.
Terminator Salvation is released 5th June.
Ken Loach's Looking For Eric is one of the British movies that you should catch this summer, the film will premiere at the Cannes Film Festival.
Eric the postman is slipping through his own fingers...
His chaotic family, his wild stepsons, and the cement mixer in the front garden don’t help, but it is Eric’s own secret that drives him to the brink.
Can he face Lily, the woman he once loved? Despite outrageous efforts and misplaced goodwill from his football fan mates, Eric continues to sink.
In desperate times it takes a spliff and a special friend to challenge Eric to journey into the most perilous territory of all - the past.
And footballing legend Eric Cantona returns to acting for Loach's latest movie.
Looking For Eric is released 12th June.
