First impressions count for a lot, and in the case of these 15 movies, there's a ton of cynicism online from fans and film buffs alike that they won't be able to deliver on their promises.

Either the result of an awful first trailer, some vocal rumblings about a troubled production or a premise that simply underwhelms on paper, these movies all have an uphill struggle to win back audience favour ahead of their release.

But what if...they're actually good? It's easy to imagine how these 15 films could crater with both audiences and critics, but we live in a world where Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle has a 76% critical approval rating, so they perhaps shouldn't all be dismissed quite so readily.

Everyone loves a surprisingly great movie, and while you'd certainly be smart to keep your expectations firmly in the middle for these movies, there's definitely the possibility that they defy audience scepticism to deliver firmly on their promises of thrilling, hilarious, horrifying and heartfelt entertainment...
