With the reboot of Marvel's Fantastic Four on the cards and laugh-out loud films Trainwreck and The Bad Education Movie also debuting in the coming weeks, there's no excuses really. Here's your 5 must-see movies for August.
1. Fantastic Four
Release Date: August 6
Why you should see it: Starring an up-and-coming cast, this reboot of one of Marvel's longest-running comic features our heroes a lot younger than in its often-maligned predecessor.
A group of outsiders teleport into unknown territory - but it's not until they return do they realise this intergalactic expedition will be life-changing. Now, these four unexpected heroes are thrown into a fight with an enemy who was once their friend - and, of course, learn to get along with one another and master their new powers on the way.
What to Read Next
2. Trainwreck
Release Date: August 14
Why you should see it: Well because "monogamy isn't realistic" - no, sorry, we're just kidding. But if you're curious to see the outcome of two little girls growing up with this neat advice bouncing around in their heads - and watch one of the most talked-about comedians of 2015 in action on the big screen - then Trainwreck is for you.
Meet Amy (Amy Schumer), a writer for men's magazine S'nuff who leads a carefree life, partying hard and sleeping around. But everything changes when Amy is commissioned to write a feature on sports doctor Aaron Conners (Bill Hader), who she unexpectedly falls for.
3. The Man from UNCLE
Release Date: August 14
Why you should see it: You wouldn't want to miss Guy Ritchie returning to the director's chair after four years away, would you? What's more, there's a stellar cast on board for this big-screen version of the TV hit - Henry Cavill, Armie Hammer, Alicia Vikander, Hugh Grant, and Elizabeth Debicki all feature.
Set back in the early 1960s around the Cold War, a mysterious criminal organisation is beginning to cause trouble. UNCLE (United Network Command for Law and Enforcement) agents Napoleon Solo and Illya Kuryakin are on hand to take down the organisation before it does some serious damage - but first, the two rival spies need to put aside their bitter differences and accept they're on the same side.
4. Paper Towns
Release Date: August 17
Why you should see it: Model of the moment Cara Delevingne has been quite busy marking her spot as an actress with upcoming roles in blockbusters like Suicide Squad and Pan. This month, you can see how she fares in a big-screen adaptation of John Green's best-selling novel Paper Towns.
Ordinary teenage boy Quentin "Q" Jacobsen (Nat Wolff) falls for his mysterious neighbour Margo (Delevingne) as he joins her in taking revenge on her cheating ex-boyfriend. After enjoying each other's company, Quentin is left shocked when Margo disappears. With the help of his friends, Quentin embarks on a road trip to find Margo - but the more he learns about her, the more he doesn't recognise her.
5. The Bad Education Movie
Release Date: August 21
Why you should see it: School's out and Alfie Wickers' tearaway teens have finished their GCSEs and been unleashed into the real world, making things a lot more interesting.
Alfie (Jack Whitehall) isn't likely to win any Teacher-of-the-Year awards any time soon - his Year 11 post-exams trip to Cornwall doesn't go to plan, and things escalate far too quickly. It's textbook, really... because if it's going to be anything like the hit BBC Three TV show, The Bad Education Movie will surely make you cry with laughter.
