10 Movies From 2016 That Could Score 100% On Rotten Tomatoes

4. Billy Lynn's Long Halftime Walk

Release Date: November 11, 2016 A war drama based on an critically-acclaimed novel from critically-acclaimed director Ang Lee? This has got a potential 100% score written all over it, surely? Billy Lynn's Long Halftime Walk, a 2012 book by Ben Fountain, was lauded as one of the best of its year, which meant that it wasn't long until Hollywood came calling. The plot concerns the titular soldier, a young man who finds himself poised as a celebrity after YouTube footage of a frenzied battle in Iraq leaks online. The book deals with Billy's disillusionment of being used as a tool for propaganda, albeit in a dramedy way. It's set to star Joe Alwyn, Garrett Hedlund, Kristen Stewart and Chris Tucker. Ang Lee's films have always fared well with critics and audiences, which means that there's a strong chance that this adaptation will do similarly. Life of Pi - in itself an adaptation of a highly-acclaimed book - racked up an impressive 86% on Rotten Tomatoes, whilst the director's most famous picture, Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, managed a cool 97%. Also: this movie has Steve Martin in it, which guarantees an added 25% to the score.
