14 Walk of Shame

Walk of Shame

13 Bad Johnson

Tagline: Say Hello to His Little Friend.

Release Date: May 2.

The Players: Cam Gigandet, Nick Thune and Jamie Chung.

Why You Can't Miss It: What the world needs right now is a good penis comedy. This unrated fantasy has that base covered, as a charismatic womanizer finds his world turned upside down when his penis mysteriously bails from the rest of his body and takes human form. With comedian Nick Thune playing 'Rich's Penis', you can bet this isn't your average, throwaway summer laugher. Expect a cult classic in the making.

11 Neighbors

Neighbors

Tagline: Family Vs. Frat.

Release Date: May 9.

The Players: Zac Efron, Seth Rogen, Rose Byrne, Dave Franco, Lisa Kudrow, Christopher Mintz-Plasse and Jake Johnson.

Why You Can't Miss It: Early buzz claims this is the comedy to beat this summer, with a breakout performance by Zac Efron that solidifies his presence as a bonafide movie star. Seth Rogen ain't no slouch either, playing a new father and husband who sparks a prank war with the fraternity that moves in next door. Things continue to escalate between the frat and this seemingly innocent husband and wife, until things explode in a fiery blaze of disgusting behavior that claims all involved. Don't expect a feel-good family friendly ending, as this is one R rated comedy that truly earns its weight in laughs. We hear the return rate is going to be high, as the jokes come so fast and hard, its hard to hear a lot of them over the roaring audience.

10 Blended

Blended

Tagline: SANDLER. BARRYMORE.

Release Date: May 23.

The Players: Adam Sandler, Drew Barrymore, Bella Thorne, Terry Crews, Wendi McLendon-Covey and Joel McHale.

Why You Can't Miss It: Adam Sandler and Drew Barrymore are back together again for their 3rd romantic comedy, and they're a pair audiences truly adore. While Sandler has his critics, they won't be enough to stop this from being a sizeable hit that continues to play well past its expiration date. The couple play mismatched single parents who go on a very disastrous first date. Through a miscommunication between people they both work for, they wind up on an extravagant African safari together with ALL of their kids in tow. It's the The Brady Bunch origin story we never got, and its sure to end in a typical storybook fashion, with the couple coming together to live happily ever after as a Blended family.

9 The Angriest Man in Brooklyn

Angriest Man in Brooklyn

Tagline: Everyone Has a Bad Day. Henry has One Everyday.

Release Date: May 23.

The Players: Robin Williams, Mila Kunis, Peter Dinklage and Melissa Leo.

Why You Can't Miss It: While Robin Williams comedies can be extremely hit or miss, this one returns the actor to the dark, indie genre that serves him very well. Here, he plays a foul-tempered Brooklynite who is told he only has ninety-minutes left to live. He sets off on a wild goose chase to right the wrongs in his life, while his nurse tracks him through various boroughs in New York, carrying the info that will ensure his survival. This comedy brings some dark elements and some drama to the end of May, but it promises to serves its cast and the audience very well.

8 A Million Ways to Die in the West

A million Ways to Die in the West

Tagline: From the Guy Who Brought You Ted.

Release Date: May 30.

The Players: Seth MacFarlane, Charlize Theron, Liam Neeson, Neil Patrick Harris, Giovanni Ribisi, Amanda Seyfried and Sarah Silverman.

Why You Can't Miss It: Seth MacFarlane is his own thing, and he can pretty much sell a movie on just his name alone. This latest one looks like another hit, as it skewers the Western, a genre that hasn't had too many great comedies outside of Blazing Saddles, The Frisco Kid and Rustlers' Rhapsody. Seth MacFarlane takes the lead as a cowardly farmer who falls for a mysterious new stranger in town. With her help, he finds the courage he needs to face her husband, a notorious gunslinger who arrives in town to retrieve his wife. With a great ensemble cast, and the running joke of the title that adds a bit of R rated gore, this is one comedy that will quickly find its audience and probably become a legend not tied to any specific type of cult status.

Jenko and Schmidt are headed to college this time out, hoping to bust another drug cartel. But their academic interest soon threaten to tear the pair apart. Will it be better than the first?

The Players: Kevin Hart, Romany Malco, Michael Ealy, Regina Hall, Taraji P. Henson and Meagan Good

Release Date: June 27.

The Players: Paul Rudd and Amy Poehler.

Why You Can't Miss It: If you're feeling nostalgic for the Nora Ephron classics like When Harry Met Sally..., Sleepless in Seattle and You've Got Mail...Maybe They Came Together isn't for you. David Wain skewers the romantic comedy genre with this laugh-a-minute ode to the cloying date movies of the 90s, and its not for the faint of heart. Following the same tropes only to trample all over them, Paul Rudd and Amy Poehler star as a couple of potential lovers who find each other in the wildest of circumstances. He's in corporate development and she's a small private business owner. Watch and laugh as they try to divert the demolition of her store while falling madly, deeply in love. Opening in small release, this is one you'll have to seek out. But you'll be glad you did.

4 Tammy

Tammy

Tagline: Coming in Hot.

Release Date: July 2. The Players: Melissa McCarthy and Susan Sarandon.

Why You Can't Miss It: Is Melissa McCarthy poised to be the queen of all summers? She's certainly on a roll, and hasn't had a miss yet, with last year's Identity Thief and The Heat raking up big numbers at the box office. Will that momentum continue here? This time out, she is being directed by her husband, from a screenplay they wrote together. The story follows a troubled woman who loses her job and goes on a road trip with her profane, hard drinking grandmother, played by the perfectly cast Susan Sarandon. This is a Thelma & Louise of a different color, and will surely rock out with its cock out. From finding love in a bar to robbing a fast food restaurant in order to bail her Grandma out of jail, this quirky adventure will have you laughing soda out of your nose and right into your popcorn. (Okay, maybe it won't be that funny...But you probably won't ask for your money back!)

The pair set off on a wacky adventure to ensure that no one ever sees them naked, 'doin' it' on roller skates. Whoops...Too late! Directed by Jake Kasdan, this will be a fun summer diversion for any couple looking for a night out that will make them feel better about their own lives and relationships.

1 Let's Be Cops

Let's Be Cops

Tagline: N/A

Release Date: August 13.

The Players: Jake Johnson and Damon Wayans Jr..

Why You Can't Miss It: This summer is saving the best for last. Who needs a new Police Academy when you have Jake Johnson and Damon Wayans Jr. pretending to be cops?

But when these newly minted "heroes" get tangled in a real life web of mobsters and dirty detectives, they must put their fake badges, and their lives on the line.
