July 2011: Top 5 Most Anticipated Releases

July is a month that in some ways is packed with great entertainment releases, in others not so much. There is the small matter of a film called Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2, promising to be an absolutely stunning climax to one of the most cherished British movie franchises of all time, and Captain America: The First Avenger is rounding off the month on the big screen in style, but other than those two there isn't too much new on at the cinema. Worse still, the Potter: Part 2 video game is about all we have on the gaming front in July, and given how badly Part 1 went down with critics and fans alike that's not a good sign at all. There is still just about enough to keep us going, though, so let's look at the most exciting releases to come in the next month:
5. UFC PERSONAL TRAINER- Not one I'll likely review, but UFC Personal Trainer at least looks like a good Wii Fit-esque expansion for Kinect and a decent tie-in to the US fighting network.
4. CAMELOT- We'll be starting to near the end of the first season of this great drama this month, so I look forward to seeing where the compelling story arcs end up and how the legend of Arthur is left by the finale!
3. TORCHWOOD: MIRACLE DAY- That this isn't top of the list shows there is definitely enough to look forward to this month- Torchwood has become a brilliant, unpredictable drama over the course of its first three seasons, so Miracle Day is undoubtedly one to watch when it starts on July 14th.
2. CAPTAIN AMERICA: THE FIRST AVENGER- The conclusion to the Avengers story arc before the big team-up in 2012, Captain America takes us back to World War 2 America, as Steve Rogers takes a special serum and becomes the ultimate Super Soldier. But can he win his first battle against the Red Skull, a manipulative Nazi who takes control of the Cosmic Cube?
1. HARRY POTTER AND THE DEATHLY HALLOWS: PART TWO- I'm already counting down the days (15, in case you were wondering) until this hits cinemas. The Harry Potter films are some of my favourites of recent times, especially Deathly Hallows: Part 1, so I hope the final battle can live up to all of our expectations and make Best Film Of 2011 lists everywhere!
