The winter movie season in January and February always feels like a letdown. This is to be expected after the abundance of middle-brow, awards season films that flood the cinemas around Christmas. But there’s another, perhaps more obvious, reason for this. Most of the movies the studios release in January are terrible.
Looking at the past three years of January releases, you begin to see a trend for the month’s releases. The winter movie season is filled with cheap horror movies, shallow romantic comedies and bigger films that obviously displeased the studios and have no box office potential.
