25 Most Hotly Anticipated Movies Of Summer 2017 - Ranked

22. Snatched

Snatched Amy Schumer Goldie Hawn
20th Century Fox

Release Date: May 12th

Billed As: Another Amy Schumer vehicle (this is a positive thing, trust me), as she stars as a post-break-up 30-something who convinces her mother to go on holiday despite a prickly relationship and the pair end up being kidnapped.

Hype: Though her TV show has never been as good as her unscripted comedy or her film-work, Amy Schumer is one of the most charming, watchable comics working today, and she's made the leap well to playing leading roles.

Trainwreck was great, and combining her with the talents of Goldie Hawn (who doesn't work enough these days) and allowing them to play up to an R-Rating is pretty glorious. Their chemistry should sell the film no matter what the specifics of the story.
