With summer past its half-way point, we\u2019ve seen some massive blockbusters at the theater this season. Whether it\u2019s the MCU carpet-bombing nostalgia over generations or Han Solo finally divulging information about his past, the summer of 2018 has some great entertainment in store for eager viewers. In this article, we will take a look at a few movies that kicked open the doors and strutted their way onto the scene and a few that haven\u2019t been released yet, but surely have potential to make your trip to the movies worth every penny.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"p1\">Avengers: Infinity War<\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-105789\" src=\"https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/sft\/articles\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/07\/Avengers_Infinity_War_logo.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"1280\" height=\"477\" srcset=\"https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/07\/Avengers_Infinity_War_logo.png 1280w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/07\/Avengers_Infinity_War_logo-300x112.png 300w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/07\/Avengers_Infinity_War_logo-768x286.png 768w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/07\/Avengers_Infinity_War_logo-1024x382.png 1024w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/07\/Avengers_Infinity_War_logo-1200x447.png 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1280px) 100vw, 1280px\" \/><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">The newest Avengers release from the Marvel behemoth has cemented itself as one of the highest grossing movies of all-time, just recently passing $2 billion at the world box office. If you haven\u2019t seen Stan Lee\u2019s creations run amok in space and battle for survival on Earth, then you haven\u2019t experienced the greatest Marvel product to date. The film boasts a roster of over 30 Marvel Heroes and Villains going toe-to-toe in the far reaches of space and the in the familiar territory of Wakanda. &#8220;Infinity War&#8221; will keep Marvel fans well-satiated until &#8220;Captain Marvel&#8221; (starring Brie Larson) and the inevitable release of Avengers 4, down the line. You can watch the movie on digital HD now or pre-order your Blu-Ray (release date August 14).

The story of Ant-Man takes place between the events of &#8220;Avengers: Age of Ultron&#8221; and &#8220;Avengers: Infinity War,&#8221; which puts Lang under house arrest under the watchful eye of the government. But, as we know with Marvel, things are not always as they seem. &#8220;Ant-Man and the Wasp&#8221; is a whirlwind of action and cheeky dialogue.

You make a sequel. Simple as that. Ryan Reynolds brought raunchy and absurdist comedy to Marvel\u2019s carefully crafted universe. For those that don\u2019t know, Deadpool is a wise-cracking, foul-mouthed mercenary who, through extraordinary circumstances, is bestowed unparalleled physical abilities. Josh Brolin (of Thanos fame) suits up as Cable to duke it out with the katana-wielding anti-hero. Deadpool 2 has grossed near its predecessor, coming in at around $730 million, as opposed to $780 for the origin story.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"840\" height=\"473\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/20bpjtCbCz0?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"autoplay; encrypted-media\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<h3>Mission: Impossible &#8211; Fallout<\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-105793\" src=\"https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/sft\/articles\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/07\/Mission-impossible-fallout-movie-logo.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"1280\" height=\"496\" srcset=\"https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/07\/Mission-impossible-fallout-movie-logo.png 1280w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/07\/Mission-impossible-fallout-movie-logo-300x116.png 300w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/07\/Mission-impossible-fallout-movie-logo-768x298.png 768w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/07\/Mission-impossible-fallout-movie-logo-1024x397.png 1024w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/07\/Mission-impossible-fallout-movie-logo-1200x465.png 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1280px) 100vw, 1280px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Tom Cruise and Henry Cavill.

Christopher McQuarrie (&#8220;Jack Reacher,&#8221; &#8220;Edge of Tomorrow&#8221;), yet again directs Tom Cruise in this high-octane adventure that is bound to elicit some ooh\u2019s and ah\u2019s in the theater.

With the success of &#8220;Sharknado,&#8221; it\u2019s easy to see why a film of this caliber would garner the attention of stars like Jason Statham, Ruby Rose, and Rainn Wilson. &#8220;The Meg&#8221; centers around the discovery of the Megalodon, the largest prehistoric shark ever to exist. A film like this should be experienced in only one particular way; IMAX 3D. Sitting in front of the largest screens on earth as the largest shark ever thought to have existed on earth swims at break-neck speeds towards the audience, that is immediately worth the price of admission. &#8220;The Meg&#8221; hits theaters on August 10.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"840\" height=\"473\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/bsLk0NPRFAc?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"autoplay; encrypted-media\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<div class=\"sc-related-articles-white\">\r\n<p class=\"sc-related-articles-white__title\">More from Softonic<\/p>\r\n  <div class=\"sc-related-articles-white__row\">\r\n    <a title=\"Star Wars 9: Will Ewan McGregor return as Obi-Wan?\" href=\"https:\/\/en.softonic.com\/articles\/star-wars-9-ewan-mcgregor\">\r\n    <div class=\"sc-related-articles-white__article\">\r\n      <div class=\"sc-related-articles-white__image\">\r\n        <div style=\"background-image:url(https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/sft\/articles\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/07\/starwarsmelty.jpg)\"><\/div>\r\n      <\/div>\r\n      <div class=\"sc-related-articles-white__text\">\r\n        <p>Star Wars 9: Will Ewan McGregor return as Obi-Wan?<\/p>\r\n      <\/div>\r\n    <\/div>\r\n    <\/a>\r\n    <a title=\"Spider-Man 2: A new suit for Spidey?\" href=\"https:\/\/en.softonic.com\/articles\/spider-man-2-a-new-suit-for-spidey\/\">\r\n    <div class=\"sc-related-articles-white__article\">\r\n      <div class=\"sc-related-articles-white__image\">\r\n        <div style=\"background-image:url(https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/sft\/articles\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/06\/spider-man-dans-infinity-warmelty.jpg)\"><\/div>\r\n      <\/div>\r\n      <div class=\"sc-related-articles-white__text\">\r\n        <p>Spider-Man 2: A new suit for Spidey?<\/p>\r\n      <\/div>\r\n    <\/div>\r\n    <\/a>\r\n  <\/div>\r\n  <div class=\"sc-related-articles-white__row\">\r\n    <a title=\"Avengers 4: If this plot theory is correct, it\u2019s totally insane!\" href=\"https:\/\/en.softonic.com\/articles\/avengers-4-if-this-plot-theory-is-correct-its-totally-insane\/\">\r\n    <div class=\"sc-related-articles-white__article\">\r\n      <div class=\"sc-related-articles-white__image\">\r\n        <div style=\"background-image:url(https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/sft\/articles\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/06\/avengersinfinitywar.jpg)\"><\/div>\r\n      <\/div>\r\n      <div class=\"sc-related-articles-white__text\">\r\n        <p>Avengers 4: If this plot theory is correct, it\u2019s totally insane!<\/p>\r\n      <\/div>\r\n    <\/div>\r\n    <\/a>\r\n    <a title=\"Wonder Woman 2: New plot details about Cheetah revealed\" href=\"https:\/\/en.softonic.com\/articles\/wonder-woman-2-new-plot-details-about-cheetah-revealed\/\">\r\n    <div class=\"sc-related-articles-white__article\">\r\n      <div class=\"sc-related-articles-white__image\">\r\n        <div style=\"background-image:url(https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/sft\/articles\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/06\/wonderwoman-.jpg)\"><\/div>\r\n      <\/div>\r\n      <div class=\"sc-related-articles-white__text\">\r\n        <p>Wonder Woman 2: New plot details about Cheetah revealed<\/p>\r\n      <\/div>\r\n    <\/div>\r\n    <\/a>\r\n  <\/div>\r\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We love summer blockbusters for their sky-high budgets, star-studded casts, and death-defying stunts.
