The Sexiest Movies of 2017 to Watch At Least Once

Love to get hot under the collar while you watch films? Then kick off the new year by watching the sexiest movies of 2017.

If there's one thing that Hollywood knows, it's that sex sells—and that's doubly true when it comes to making box office hits. (After all, look at how much success Game of Thrones had, right?)

When it came to steamy, sultry, and downright hot scenes in movies, 2017 proved to be a serious goldmine. For folks that want to feel a little randy while they get entertained, it was a great year filled with gems that were totally worth watching.

Want to see what the sexiest movies of 2017 were? This list will have you feeling hot under the collar next time you have a movie fest with your friends.

I'll be the first one to say that the 50 Shades of Grey trilogy offers terrible advice when it comes to BDSM relationships—and actually has a seriously unstable, abusive character as the lead. Fifty Shades Darker is the sequel to the original scandalous BDSM movie.

However, love it or hate it, most critics will not blink when they call this hit movie sequel one of the sexiest movies of 2017. It has hot actors, sexy BDSM fantasy tales, wild sex scenes, and just enough teasing to leave stuff up to the imagination.

If you love the idea of having a classic-looking gentleman playing a really romantic game of seduction with you, you'll understand fairly quickly why Tulip Fever is one of the sexiest movies of 2017.

This low-key hit follows the story of an artist who falls in love with a young, married woman whose portrait he's meant to paint at the height of the Tulip Mania. Forbidden fruit? Oh, my yes. You'll fall in love.

It's also one of the best historical fiction movies you'll see from this year and has a heavy background in the Tulip Mania of 18th century Amsterdam. So, definitely check it out if you haven't already.

King Arthur: Legend of the Sword has a lot of really hot elements that will get people of all genders feeling a bit horny. Women will love seeing hunky Charlie Hunnam doing his thing, while guys will love seeing the ladies' costumes.

Yes, there's action that gets the blood pumping, but there's also just enough scandal to push this to the top of the sexiest movies of 2017. This just goes to show that the "knight in shining armor" trope still has appeal in this day and time.

Back when Pam Lee was on the Baywatch TV series, everyone basically agreed it was synonymous with "sexy people slow-motion running in bathing suits for any excuse possible." Admittedly, it was a hit for said reason.

Baywatch is a movie remake of the classic 90s cheese hit, and we're going to be honest, it's not something you watch for the plot. You watch it because, visually speaking, it's one of the sexiest movies of 2017. (We've also heard that it's decently funny, too.)

Zac Efron, Dwayne Johnson, and Alexandra Daddario are running around in swimsuits. Do we really need you to give any other reason to watch this?

Gal Gadot really made a name for her super-self as superheroine Wonder Woman this year, and thanks to her awesome figure, she's also known as the star of one of the sexiest movies of 2017. Skin-tight outfits, a strong female leader, and plenty of action scenes make this a pretty attractive film.

Wonder Womanis a sexy movie that has strong female superheroes in it—and that's a nice breath of fresh air. Also, Chris Pine really doesn't look that bad in it, either.

The Beguiled is a remake of a classic 1971 movie—but it honestly has a so many old school porn movie elements that it's surprising that it's even been in movie theaters. It's an all-girl's school, during a very sexually repressed time in history, and there are multiple moments where sexual tensions arise between a male guest and the girls.

Concept-wise, it's easy to see why this is one of the sexiest movies of 2017. We're kind of surprised that there isn't a porn movie based on this too. The plot (and sex scenes) literally write themselves.

If you haven't figured it out, a lot of the sexiest movies of 2017 involve women exploring their sexuality or their wild sides—or otherwise having to confront them. Girls Trip is the story of four ladies who go to the Essence festival together and get wild.

Sexy stuff happens, people bond, and it turns into an epic chick flick for people who want a little bit of spice with the typical sugary plots that are seen in this genre.

Atomic Blonde's lead character, played by Charlize Theron, is exactly what most men have, at one point or another, fantasized about. She's badass. She's beautiful. She has an exotic backstory, fantastic hair, and can drive some of the meanest cars in the world.

The cars and fashion are designed to thrill. The overall vibe of the movie is seductive, edgy, and dangerous. Atomic Blondereviews say it all: Charlize kills it in her role, and rightfully made this one of the sexiest movies of 2017, and possibly even the decade.

Did you ever notice how many post-apocalyptic movies also seem to have an underlying current of sexuality in them? Blade Runner 2049 is no exception to that, and in fact, seems to flaunt it at times.

This entire movie has men acting gritty, tough, and sexy in that "action hero" kind of way. Jared Leto, Ryan Gosling, and Harrison Ford all will make fan girls swoon in the best kind of way throughout the film. As a result, it's one of sci-fi's hottest movies of 2017.

This one's still in theaters, so if you want to see more Gosling goodness up close, you can actually check it out on the silver screen.

Last but not least is one of the other 2017 movies that's still circulating theaters—Thor: Ragnarok. We've already basically realized that Chris Hemsworth is the sexiest version of Thor we've ever seen, and that the other superheroes are also super gorgeous.

Seeing Thor's pretty blonde self doing superhero things will make most people smile... and get a little hot under the collar. Since its opening weekend, Thor: Ragnarok made the Marvel Comics Universe break records.

As such, it's one of the sexiest movies of 2017—and one of the best sexy movie picks for geeky girls who love the idea of being saved by a superhero, too.
