The 17 Steamiest Movies Of 2017

There are few things hotter than forbidden love. Tulip Fever follows an erotic love affair between an artist (Dane DeHaan) and the married woman he’s been commissioned to paint (Alicia Vikander). Just how steamy is this 2017 historical drama ? As Page Six reported back in August, the trailer for the film was deemed too damn racy for TV. Too racy for TV in 2017?! Wow.

Not only that, the film features a love scene between Vikander and DeHaan that was approved by the MPAA but rejected by FOX.

Some people stand in the darkness, afraid to step into the light. Other people? They need to help somebody when the edge of surrender is in sight. A third set of people, like Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson and Zac Efron, have an insane set of abs that look as though they were sculpted out of marble on top Mount Olympus. The two perpetually shirtless dudes showcased their dynamite mid-sections during this year’s summer blockbuster.

From sex toys to crowded elevators, these two quite literally cannot keep their hands off each other and that never stops being fun to watch. — Lea Palmieri

Colin Farrell does way more than just enchant in the 2017 drama The Beguiled.

Written and directed by Sofia Coppola, the movie centers on a wounded soldier (Colin Farrell) who’s taken in by an all-girls school. The simmering sexual tension between Farrell and, well, everyone (Nicole Kidman, Kirsten Dunst, Elle Fanning) reaches its satisfying crescendo during a particularly passionate sex scene between Farrell’s Corporal John McBurney and Dunst’s Miss Morrow.

The Incredible Jessica James is probably more sweet than steamy, but you can’t deny the sexual chemistry between Jessica (Jessica Williams) and Boone (Chris O’Dowd). As Decider’s Jade Budowski pointed out back in August, the two gave viewers one of the best rom-com sex scenes in years:

“As any good storyteller knows, what you don’t see is often more powerful than what you do, so when Boone starts asking what she wants and disappears under the blankets, the sounds from the two of them are sexier than any full-frontal encounter that another flick might include.”

Currently boasting a 77% on Rotten Tomatoes, it’s safe to say that critics enjoyed Charlize Theron’s Lorraine Broughton in Atomic Blonde. A fun mix of action and sensuality, Decider’s Lea Palmieri named the intense make out session between Theron’s Broughton and Sofia Boutella’s Delphine Lasalle as one of the ten most feminist sex scenes of all time.

Atomic Blonde is certainly one of the steamiest movies of 2017.

Written and directed by Olivier Assayas, Personal Shopper oozes sensuality. Released in the United States in March of 2017, Kristen Stewart portrays a beguiling personal shopper (Maureen) who assists a celebrity in Paris.

Everyone has that one person they just can’t seem to forget. The steamy Canadian drama On Again Off Again explores this relatable push and pull of longing and regret.

There are many words you could use to describe Julia Ducournau’s Raw — bonkers, brilliant, and unsettling come to mind — but this 2017 horror film is a movie you just gotta see to believe.

Now streaming on Netflix, Raw is such a graphic film that it famously made audience members physically ill. The film follows a girl that comes into her sexuality while at the same time developing a taste for cannibalism. The visceral sex scene between Justine (Garance Marillier) and Adrien (Rabah Nait Oufella) is one of the most memorable cinematic moments of the year.

Battle of the Sexes may hinge most of its story on the notorious tennis showdown between Billie Jean King and Bobby Riggs, but the film also takes time to depict Billie Jean as she struggles with her sexuality behind the scenes.

After meeting during a seriously sensual haircut, Billie Jean (Emma Stone) and hairdresser Marilyn (Andrea Riseborough) spend a night out on the town and end up giving into temptation back in Billie Jean’s hotel room. It’s a sweet, sexy rendezvous, one that sees Billie Jean surprised by how right it feels — despite seemingly being happily married to a man and never having been with a woman before. — Jade Budowski
