January will usher in the premieres of some exciting new films, including the new Anthony Mackie-led action movie Outside the Wire and the book-to-screen adaptation of The White Tiger.
But in addition to these buzzy new Originals, you'll also have the chance to catch some amazing films that might have slipped under your radar during their initial releases. Even if you missed them the first time, they're definitely worth the watch when they arrive next month. Let's take a look at some of the best hidden gems coming in January 2021.
If you've ever wondered what it might be like to relive your high school years with the acquired wisdom and maturity of adulthood, well, 17 Again makes it look pretty great. The 2009 comedy, which arrives on January 1st, introduces us to Matthew Perry's Mike, a 37-year-old whose struggling marriage and floundering career make him yearn for the old days when he was young and carefree.
After a couple strange encounters with a magic janitor, Mike gets a chance to do it all over again when he finds himself back in his 17-year-old body - this time, played by Zac Efron.
With the help of his friend Ned, he re-enrolls in the same high school as his two teenage kids and gets to see himself and the people he loves from a very different vantage point. Not only is the movie a fun and vicarious little body-swapping adventure, but it also has a lot of heart, as Mike learns just how lucky he is - at any age.
