Why It’s Guy worthy – With all the tent pole action and superhero fare, it’s nice to take in an indie that focuses on the L.A. car and Latino culture. Plus, it’s got some Latino heavyweight talent in the form of Demián Bichir and Eva Longoria.
Baywatch
The jiggle fest 90’s tv show which spawned the careers of Pamela Anderson and countless other California blondes makes it feature film debut. If the trailer is any indication, it looks like they are taking the 21 Jump Street approach to this film, but not forgetting what made it successful – the jiggle factor. To ensure testosterone is represented, none other than Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson will be playing Mitch Buchanan.

Zoe Saldana returns as Gamora, as does Dave Bautista as Drax the Destroyer, Bradley Cooper as the voice of Rocket Raccoon and Vin Diesel as the voice of Baby Groot.
