Theater Watch: What to See in September

This is the first in our “Theater Watch” series, where we review what we’re excited to see this month in theaters.

2015 has been a year full of amazing film releases in all categories and genres. The latter has been impeccable as films range from Biography such as Straight Outta Compton, to Drama like Southpaw, Fantasy demonstrated in Ex Machina and finally Action/Adventure found in The Man From U.N.C.L.E. However, that is not all. Viewers were able to experience films on the big screen that were first presented in a variety of film festivals, for example People, Places, Things and The Diary of a Teenage Girl. With all these incredible films already released and lingering in our rearview mirror, the main question on the minds of all film enthusiasts is: “What films should we watch out for?” September is month full of upcoming film releases, and here is a list of a few to consider!
